MAINTENANCE
Monthly maintenance is recommended. Lubrication is critical to jacks as they support
heavy loads. Any restriction due to dirt, rust, etc, can cause either slow movement or
cause extremely rapid jerks damaging the internal components. The following steps are
designed to keep the jack well maintained and operational.
Important:
Dirt is the greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units. Keep the jack
clean and well lubricated to prevent foreign matter from entering the system. If the jack
has been exposed to rain, snow, sand, or grit it must be cleaned before it is stored or
used.
•
Lubricate the ram, linkages, saddle and pump mechanism with light oil.
•
Visually inspect for cracked welds, bent, loose, missing parts or hydraulic oil leaks.
•
The product must be inspected immediately if it is believed to have been subjected
to abnormal load or shock.
•
Any hydraulic jack found to be damaged, worn or operates abnormally must be
removed from service until repaired by an authorised service representative.
•
Regularly clean all surfaces and maintain all labels and warnings.
•
Check and maintain the hydraulic ram oil level.
•
Check the ram every three months for any sign of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed
and wipe with an oily cloth. When not in use always leave the saddle and ram all the
way down.
•
Always store your jack in the fully lowered position. This will help protect critical
areas from corrosion. Do not use brake or transmission fluids or regular motor oil as
they can damage the seals.
