2.1.
INTRODUCTION
Your jack has been designed for industrial use but must only be used on hard, flat, even surfaces. All
models have a safety lock and overload device built into the unit and a T-handle twist lock safety
release feature. A foot pedal is fitted for raising the saddle rapidly to the jacking point. Normal use of
pumping handle then lifts the load.
p
WARNING!
The load must not exceed the maximum capacity of each model (see model specifications).
2.2.
ASSEMBLY
Insert the handle into the socket whilst simultaneously pressing together the spring clip. Ensure that
the clip engages in the slot on the handle (see right).
s
CAUTION!
The spring is an important safety feature which will automatically stop the jack from lowering
if the handle is released (known as the Deadman principle). It is, therefore, very important to ensure that the
handle and spring are correctly fitted.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR:
TROLLEY JACKS
Models:
TJ3, TJ5, TJ10, TJ15
Your new jack is produced and manufactured to a high standard of dependability and will, if correctly cared for, give you years
of trouble free performance.

2. INTRODUCTION & ASSEMBLY
3.1.
PREPARATION
3.1.1. Before using the jack, purge hydraulic circuit in order to eliminate any air that may have entered the system during transit.
a) Open the release valve by turning the handle clockwise against the spring and hold the handle in that position.
b) Pump using full strokes for approximately one minute to ensure complete internal lubrication and to bleed any air from the system.
c) Release the handle and the spring will automatically return the handle to the normal pumping position.
d) Place a few drops of hydraulic jack oil on the pump piston and pump the handle several times to distribute the oil.
e) Thoroughly lubricate all moving parts.
3.1.2. Prepare the vehicle for jacking according to Section 1 safety instructions.
