USER LIABILITY
Before using the jack, read the following instructions and precautions.
The non-application of these precautions may result in damaging the jack, and may even hurt users.
Inform appropriately the workers in charge of using and maintaining the work equipment, and notably on the conditions of use of work equipment, instructions, or guidelines concerning them.
Check the lifting devices:
- Check when initiating a task, upon fi rst use of the device, whether new or second-hand, in the workshop
- Check upon start-up, to be performed upon dismounting and refi tting, modifi cation, major repair or accident caused by a device failure.
- General periodical checks, performed on a regular basis, aiming at timely detection of any damage likely to create a hazard.
These checks concern devices powered mechanically as well as devices powered by human force. The result of these checks must be recorded in the safety log opened by the site manager.
When devices are faulty, forbid their use or repair immediately.
For manual handling, provide the staff with the individual protections required: safety shoes, preferably in materials resistant to hydrocarbons, protection gloves, etc.
In mechanical handling, unless during tests or proofi ng, never lift a load exceeding that specifi ed on the device.
When using jacks, the following must be ensured:
1. the maximum operating load must be mentioned on the jack,
2. each jack must be checked:
- every year in the case of normal use,
- every 6 months in the case of heavy use,
- immediately after use in special conditions, notably after an accidental overload.
Jacks must be used only to lift or lower a vehicle. Never use a rolling jack to move a vehicle or a load.
When working under a raised vehicle:
- set a block to protect the staff from any untimely lowering of the vehicle, as well as any horizontal displacement (3),
- place a device signalling worker presence,
- if required, wear protection glasses and a cap,
- use an inspection trolley (FACOM
WARNINGS !
1.
Before lifting a vehicle, ensure it is on a stable, fl at, horizontal and clean surface (no grease nor oil)
2.
Check the vehicle to lift is perfectly immobilised
3.
To support the vehicle, use another appropriate means, e.g. a FACOM prop
4.
To prevent the assembly from slipping, always centre the load on the jack properly.
5.
(4).
Never use extensions
6.
When using the jack, no person must be inside the vehicle or lean on it.
7.
Check the oil level regularly (5). Conversely, too much oil can damage or alter the adjustment of the devices (see « instructions before use» ).
8.
When changing the oil, never use brake fl uid, alcohol, glycerine, detergents, motor oil or used oil. Using dirty oil can cause major internal damage to your equipment. For more information, contact your FACOM distributor directly. FACOM recom-
WA.21
mends using the oil reference
9.
Check the precaution label is legible at all times.When retrofi tting your equipment, these labels are available (6) as well as the operating instructions (Q.NU-DL18/0507).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PERFECT USE
1.
Before each use, check the jack. You must particularly check for oil leaks, damaged or missing parts.
2.
Faulty parts must be replaced by skilled staff with FACOM original parts.
3.
Each part in the jack must be checked in case of load considered abnormal or following a shock.
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
1.
Checking the oil level
Set the jack in the operating position, piston in short position and open the valve. Open the cap. The tank must be fi lled exactly up to the opening (5). If required, fi ll the appropriate quantity with FACOM oil (reference WA.21).
2.
Internal lubrication
Actuate the lever, with the valve open, several times to ensure perfect lubrication.
3.
Fast bleeding the hydraulic system
During the jack's transport, some air can enter the system, reducing its effectiveness. To bleed the hydraulic system, close the valve (7). With the handle, pump up to maximum displacement (8). Open the valve and push back the piston (9).
INSTRUCTIONS OF USE
1.
Lifting the load
Before lifting a vehicle, check it is fully immobilised on a fl at and horizontal surface (1) and (2). The jack must be on a stable surface void of greasy compounds. Close the valve (7) by turning it clockwise until it is locked (not too tight). Pump (8).
Continue this pumping operation until the position required is reached.
2.
Lowering the load
Turn slowly the valve (9) counter-clockwise and remove the jack. The speed of this action is adjusted according to the rate the valve is turned.
MAINTENANCE
When the jack is no longer used, maintain it in the lower position, with the valve closed. Keep the jack and handles clean. Lubricate moving parts regularly.
Bleed the hydraulic system (§ 3 INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE)
Symptom
Jack cannot lift load or pump feels spongy
Jack lift load, but cannot hold
Jack can not lower completely
Jack cannot reach maximum height
GUARANTEE
Type D = 2 years. See the general conditions in the FACOM F05 catalogue or the FACOM price list.
