Raising the Load
1. Make sure the load to be raised is positioned properly and securely
attached to the saddle assembly with the restraint system provided.
2. Pump pedal to raise saddle to contact load. Position jack so weight of
load will be equally distributed on saddle, and adjust pitch and tilt controls
as necessary. Position corner support brackets and secure load with load
restraint belt. Make sure the load to be raised is positioned properly and
securely attached to the saddle with the restraint system provided.
Always use the load restraint belt, corner support brackets,
and attachments to stabilize and firmly secure the load to the
saddle.
The belt should be used as follows:
Hang the open end of the belt through
the two "U" shaped slots beneath the saddle plate. Place the belt over the load, pull
tight and engage into the buckle at the other end of the belt. Tighten the strapping and
lock the buckle.
Removing the Transmission
1. Consult the vehicle manufacturer's instructions regarding transmission removal.
2. Place the jack so the saddle assembly will lift the center balance of the transmission weight. Pump the jack up until
the saddle is close to the transmission oil pan.
3. Once the saddle is centered and positioned near the transmission oil pan, adjust the saddle base and corner support
brackets (adapters) so the flange of the transmission pan will rest on the top edge of the adapters. The adapters must
then be secured to the saddle by tightening the hex bolts. Now gently raise the saddle so the adapters are supporting
the transmission pan flanges.
4. Use the load restraint belt, corner support brackets, and attachments to stabilize and firmly secure the load to the
saddle.
5. Use the saddle plate tilt knobs, forward/backward or side-to-side tilting, to adjust the load to a proper position for
transmission removal or for alignment with the engine.
Installing the Transmission
1. After removal of the transmission it is recommended
to keep the transmission jack saddle adjustment the
same. This will help in installing the transmission into
its proper position.
2. Proceed with the installation of the transmission in
accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
Maintenance Instructions
1. Lube the jack regularly. A medium weight lubricating
grease should be used on all external moving parts, such
as bearing surface, pivot points, tilt screws, etc.
2. Regularly check oil level. With the saddle fully lowered,
remove oil plug and check oil level. Fill if necessary.
3. If jack fails to operate, check oil level and/or bleed unit
before seeking service.
4. DO NOT use this jack as a wash rack when washing or
steam cleaning transmissions.
