PREPARATION
Assembly
Insert handle into the handle sleeve. Tighten the bolt on handle sleeve to prevent accidental removal of handle while
in use.
Before Use
1. Verify that the product and application are compatible, if in doubt call Technical Service Department (888) 332-
6419.
2. Before using this product, read the operator's manual completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the
product, its components and recognize the hazards associated with its use.
3. To familiarize yourself with basic operation, locate and turn the release valve (handle):
a. Clockwise until firm resistance is felt to further turning. This is the ‘
CLOSED
’ release valve position used to
raise
the saddle.
b. Counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 a turn from the closed position. This is the ‘
OPEN
’ release valve
position used to
lower
the saddle.
4. With saddle fully lowered, remove the oil filler vent screw. Pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help release any
pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir. Check oil level. Proper oil level will vary from just
covering the ram cylinder to 3/16” above it as seen from the oil filler hole. Reinstall the oil filler vent screw.
5. Ensure that jack rolls freely. Raise and lower the unloaded saddle throughout the lifting range before putting into
service to ensure the pump operates smoothly. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with factory
authorized replacement parts only.
Bleeding / Venting Trapped Air
With the release valve in the OPEN position (3b.) and with saddle fully lowered, locate and remove the oil filler vent
screw. Pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help release any pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir.
Reinstall the oil filler vent screw.
