CARE AND MAINTENANCE
7. Change the hydraulic oil at least once every three years:
a. With the jack fully lowered, remove the oil filler plug
on the top of the housing.
b. Tip the jack to allow the old hydraulic oil to drain out
of the Housing completely, and dispose of the old
hydraulic oil in accordance with local regulations.
c. With the jack upright, completely fill the housing with
a high quality hydraulic oil (not included) until the oil just
begins to run out of the oil fill hole. Be VERY CAREFUL
not to allow dirt or foreign matter into the system.
d. Then, reinstall the oil filler plug.
e. Clean with a clean cloth using a detergent or mild solvent. Then, store the jack in a safe,
dry location with the ram and pump piston in fully down position. Keep out of reach of children
and other non-authorized people.
OPERATION
TO RAISE:
1. Park vehicle on a hard level surface safely away from
oncoming traffic.
2. Turn off the vehicle's engine.
3. Place the vehicle's transmission in PARK, if equipped
with an automatic, or in its lowest gear, if equipped
with a manual transmission.
4. Set the vehicle's emergency brake and block the
wheels that are not being lifted.
5. Refer to vehicle owner's manual for proper jacking
procedures. Lift only on areas of vehicle as specified
by manufacturer.
6. Make certain that load is centered on saddle.
7. Place pump handle over release valve and turn clockwise to close.
8. Insert handle into handle socket and pump to raise load to desired height.
9. ALWAYS support load with jack stands. Place jack stands of appropriate capacity (not
included) beneath the vehicle at locations recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. DO
NOT Get under the vehicle without jack stands. Jacks are not designed to maintain heavy
loads for long periods of time. DO NOT attempt to put jack stands simultaneously under both
ends of vehicle or under one side of vehicle.
NOTE: When using two jack stands, they must be at the same height.
10. SLOWLY turn the release valve counterclockwise to lower vehicle onto jack stands and
remove jack.
CAUTION: NEVER MOVE JACK WHEN THE HANDLE IS IN THE OPERATING LEVER OR
THE VALVE SLEEVE. DAMAGE TO THE PUMPING UNIT MAY OCCUR.
TO LOWER:
1. Remove all tools, parts, etc. from under the vehicle.
2. Position the saddle under the lifting point. Place pump handle over release valve and turn
clockwise to close the valve release screw, and pump the upper/lower handle to raise the
vehicle slightly above the saddle(s) of the jack stands. Then, collapse and remove jack stand(s).
3. SLOWLY turn the release valve counterclockwise with the handle just enough to allow
controlled descent of the vehicle onto the ground. (Never more than two full turns).
4. Lower the jack completely. Then, store in a safe, dry location out of reach of children.
