SETUP
PLEASE REFER TO THE EXPLODED VIEW DRAWING IN THIS MANUAL IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY PARTS.
1. Line up the two mounting holes in the base of the hydraulic jack (H) with two holes in the lift's jack base pad. The hydraulic jack's release pedal should be
facing to the rear of the jack. Secure the hydraulic jack to the lift's jack base pad with the (#1) spring washers and (#3) bolts provided.
2. Raise the lift bar enough where the two forks under the top lift bar will straddle the pin going through the top of the hydraulic jack's ram. Secure one of the forks
to the pin by tightening the (#7) bolt.
3. Install the (E) handle in the receiver tube at the top of the lift bar and secure it with the (#2) bolt.
PURGING AIR FROM THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM:
Sometimes air can get trapped in the hydraulic jack's system during shipping and handling. An air trapped system can prevent the jack from getting a complete
incremental pump stoke and pumping feels spongy. Follow these instructions:
1. Depress the release pedal while simultaneously activating the pump pedal about 15 to 20 times.
2. Stop depressing the release pedal. Continue activating the pump pedal so the lift rails rise to maximum extension.
3. If the condition seems better but not fully corrected, repeat steps 1 and 2 until all air is purged from the system.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all
instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT:
Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Once the lift is in the proper work location, the handle can be used to roll the lift under the vehicle. Since the jack is only designed to be used on a hard level
surface, there should be no difficulty in rolling the lift under a vehicle. Make sure there are no obstructions, cracks or crevices in the floor underneath the vehicle.
2. The lift is raised by activating the foot pedal. The locking arms slide over the notched lock positions as the lift rises. Once the desired work height has been reached,
slowly depress the release pedal until the locking arms engage with the closest notch.
3. In order to lower the lift, the locking arms must be disengaged by pumping the jack up so the locking arm assembly can be clipped in the retaining latch. Once the
assembly is retained in the latch, depress the release pedal slowly to lower the load.
LIFTING A MOTORCYCLE OR ATV:
CAUTION: Removal or installation of any heavy motorcycle components while the motorcycle is raised by the lift will affect and change the weight distribution and
balance of the motorcycle and is prohibited. FOR EXAMPLE: Removing one tire and wheel combination will shift the weight of the motorcycle to the opposite side of the
lift rails and cause the motorcycle to fall off the lift.
1. Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. This lift is designed for lifting vehicles with an exposed frame undercarriage. The weight of
the vehicle must be evenly balanced on the two lift rails. The center of balance on an engine is not necessarily the center of balance point of the whole vehicle.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RAISE ANY VEHICLE THAT CANNOT BE PROPERLY BALANCED ON THE LIFT.
2. Since lifting and lowering procedures require two people, one person must hold the motorcycle in a vertical position. The second person must look
underneath the vehicle frame to make sure there are no components extending down beyond the frame that can be damaged by lifting. The second person can also
determine if it is necessary to leave the motorcycle kickstand extended or retracted in order for the lift rails to make contact with the motorcycle frame. The second
person (person operating the lift) must slide the lift under the vehicle, making sure the lift arms are properly positioned under the vehicle frame. The lift can now be
pumped up under the frame. There should be equal distance on both sides of a motorcycle as it is lined up with the lift rails. Since the lift arcs when pumped, the lift
operator must compensate for the arcing movement so the motorcycle is equally spaced on the lift rails when the lift rails come in contact with the motorcycle
frame. Once the lift rails make contact with the motorcycle frame, the motorcycle can be lifted very slowly while the first person continues to hold the motorcycle in
