Important:
only fully qualified personnel should
attempt maintenance or repair.
WaRnInG!
Disconnect jack from air supply before changing
parts, servicing or performing any maintenance.
7.1.
When the jack is not in use, the piston must be in the lowest
position to minimise corrosion.
7.2.
Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts, and the
air intake connector with air tool oil on a regular basis.
7.3.
To check oil level, fully lower jack. Remove the filler plug
(located next to the piston or for YAJ20-40LR it is located on
the side of the jack). The oil level should be level with the
indicator inside the filler hole, for YAJ20-40LR, it should be
level with the bottom of the filler hole.
Top up the oil level if necessary but do not overfill as the jack
will become inoperative. If inadvertently overfilled the excess
oil should be poured off. After topping up or pouring off
excess oil it may become necessary to purge air from the
unit. See section 6.3 / 6.4.
nOTE:
Use a good quality Jack oil, such a SEALEY HYDRAULIC
JACK OIL.

WaRnInG! Do not use brake fluid, or any fluid other
than hydraulic jack fluid as this may cause serious damage to
the Jack and will invalidate the warranty!
7.4.
Ensure the air filter located in the air valve is clean.
7.5.
Should the piston not rise and the oil level is correct, this may
indicate a problem with air seeping into the hydraulic valve
passage. Purge any air from the system. See 6.3 / 6.4.
7.6.
Confirm that the piston can rise to the highest position.
7.7.
Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose
parts. Or any visible damage to welds, piston, pump, saddle,
air connector, levers, frame and all parts including nuts, bolts,
pins and other fasteners. If any suspect item is found, remove
jack from service and take necessary action to fix the problem.
DO nOT
use the jack if believed to have been subjected to
abnormal load or shock. Inspect and take appropriate action.
7.8.
Every three months remove the locking rings on the caster
wheels and lubricate the ball bearings with grease.
7.9.
After a year of extensive use, the oil should be replaced in
order to extend the life of the jack. To drain the oil, remove
the filler plug and valve. Make sure that no dirt is allowed to
enter the hydraulic system See 7.3. for refilling instructions.
7.10.
Periodically check the pump piston and piston rod for signs of
corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.

WaRnInG!
ensure you have read and understood the safety
instructions in chapter 1 before commencing work.
6.6.1. Position the Jack under the vehicle
manufacturer’s recommended
jacking point
(see vehicle hand book).
Note: Use the extension pins (fig.3D/fig.4C)
to get the jack closer to the jacking
point before engaging the jack. See
specification for capacity when using
the extension pins.
6.6.2. Whilst holding the main jack handle
lifting is achieved by pushing the 'up'
button (fig.6A).
6.6.3. When the vehicle has reached the
desired height release the 'up' button,
stopping any further air flow holding
the jack at the height to which it has
been raised.
6.6.4. Place axle stands correctly in position
and ensure chapter 1 safety
instructions are strictly applied before
performing any task.
6.7.
Lowering the Jack
6.7.1. Ensure there are no persons or obstruction beneath the
vehicle before lowering, and remove any axle stands.
6.7.2. Whilst holding the main jack handle lowering is achieved by
pushing the control lever/button to down (fig.5A/fig.6B), and
the jack will lower in a controlled manner.
6.7.3. Once completely lowered releasing the control lever will
return it to the middle hold position. Remove the jack from
under the vehicle. If you have finished using the jack, turn the
air pressure supply off and disconnect the jack from the air
line and store the jack and air line accordingly.
