INSPECTION
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the jack, checking for leaking hydraulic fluid and damaged, loose or missing parts. Any
jack which appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE
until necessary repairs are made.
SETUP
1. Remove the 2-piece handle from box. Insert the smaller diameter end of the upper handle into the lower handle end with hole. Align the holes in the
upper and lower handles and secure them with the hex head screw provided. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREW as it could strip the threads in
the lower handle.
2. Grease the inside of the handle yoke so the handle will rotate freely inside the yoke. Remove the handle yoke screw. Insert the end of the lower
handle all the way in the handle yoke until it engages the release valve assembly. Secure the handle in the handle yoke by reinstalling the handle
yoke screw and tightening the screw. Rotate the handle to see if it is rotating the release valve assembly. Pull on the handle to make sure it is
secured in the handle yoke. If the release valve assembly is not rotating and/or the handle pulls out of the handle yoke, repeat step 2.
3.
IMPORTANT:
In most cases the jack should work normally right out of the box but it is not unusual for air to get trapped in the jack’s hydraulic system
during shipping and handling. There are several symptoms of an air trapped hydraulic system which include only partial incremental pump stroke,
jack will not lift load, jack will not sustain load or pumping feels spongy under load. The following procedure will purge air from the hydraulic system
and only needs to be done if experiencing the above mentioned conditions.
a.
With the lift arm in its completely retracted position and the pump handle rotated all the way in a clockwise direction until it
stops, rotate the pump handle in a counterclockwise direction two full revolutions.
b.
Proceed to pump the jack 15 full incremental pump strokes.
c.
Rotate the pump handle clockwise until it stops and proceed to pump the handle until the lift arm reaches maximum height.
d.
Repeat steps "A" through "C" until all air is purged from the system.
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
