Lubrication
•
Add lubricating oil (WD-40) to all moving parts when needed.
•
For light duty use lubricate every six months.
•
For heavy and constant use lubrication recommended every month.
Rust Prevention
•
Check ram and pump plunger on the Power Unit Assembly every two months (or sooner, based on
usage) for any signs of rust or corrosion. Lift the jack as high as it goes and look under and behind
the lifting arm.
If signs of rust are visible clean as needed and wipe down with an oily cloth or e.g. WD-40.
•
When storing the jack, always have the saddle and pump plunger in the down position.
Always use a good grade hydraulic jack oil. Do not use hydraulic brake fluid, alcohol, glycerine,
detergent, motor oil or dirty oil. Use of an un-recommended fluid can cause damage to your jack.
