Be sure all tools and personnel are clear before lowering load. Only attachments and/or adapters supplied by the
manufacturer shall be used. Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
PREPARATION
BEFORE USE (refer to Fig 1)
1. Verify that the product and the application are compatible. If in doubt, contact Customer Support.
2. Before using this product, read the owner's manual completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the product and its
components, and recognize the hazards associated with its use.
3. To familiarize yourself with basic operation, use the stamped end of the provided handle to engage and turn the release valve:
a. Clockwise until firm resistance is felt to further thread engagement. This is the 'CLOSED' release valve position used to
raise the load.
b. Counterclockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn from the closed position. This is the 'OPEN' release valve position used to
lower the load.
4. With saddle fully lowered, locate and remove the cover plate, then remove the oil filler plug. Insert the handle into the handle
sleeve; then 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 in. above it as seen from the oil filler plug
hole. Reinstall the oil filler plug.
5. Check to ensure that jack rolls freely (if so equipped) and that the pump operates smoothly before putting into service. Replace
worn or damaged parts and assemblies with factory authorized replacement parts only. Contact the manufacturer or distributor
of this product for a list of factory authorized service centers. Lubricate as instructed in Maintenance Section.
Bleeding / Venting Trapped Air
With the release valve in the OPEN position and with saddle fully lowered, locate and remove the oil filler plug. Insert the handle into
the handle sleeve; then pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help release any pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir.
Oil level should be even with the bottom of the oil filler plug hole. Reinstall the oil filler plug.
To avoid crushing and related injuries:
• Never work on, under, or around a load supported only by a hydraulic jack.
• Read, understand and follow all printed materials provided with and on this jack.
• Immediately support the lifted load with a pair of appropriately rated jack stands.
• Use ONLY on vehicles whose lift points are compatible with the saddle of this jack.
Incompatibility may result in structural damage to the vehicle and/or jack.
• Chock each un-lifted tire in both directions.
• Be alert and sober when servicing a vehicle! Never operate this equipment when
under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
• DO NOT use this device to lift, level, lower, support, adjust or otherwise move
a house, mobile home, travel trailer, camper, or building structure of any type,
size or configuration.
