Check for any broken or damaged parts and any other conditions that may affect its operation. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.

5.Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty.

6.Do not force product. Do not use inappropriate attachments in an attempt to exceed the Hydraulic Jack???s lifting capacity.

7.Use the right product for the job. Do not attempt to force a small Jack or attachment to do the work of a larger industrial Jack. There are certain applications for which this Jack was designed. Do not modify this Jack and do not use this Jack for a purpose for which it was not intended. Do not use on airplanes. Never attempt to install a base onto this Jack.

Raising and Lowering

1.To raise the Hydraulic Jack turn the Release Spindle (18) clockwise until the valve is tightly closed. Pump the Handle (26) to raise the Jack. Continue to pump the Handle (26) until the Hydraulic Jack is at the desired height.

2.To lower the Jack, first verify that the area under the object is clear, then turn the Release Spindle (18) counterclockwise. This will release pressure in the Jack and cause the Jack to lower.

Adding Hydraulic Oil

1.Turn the Release Spindle (18) counterclockwise until Jack is completely lowered. Remove the Oil Plug (11) from the Oil Tank (10). Fill the Oil Tank (10) with oil. Use a high quality hydraulic oil. Note: The capacity of the Oil Tank is listed on page 2.

Hydraulic System Bleeding Instructions

If the Hydraulic Jack begins to lose power and efficiency, it may be a result of air being trapped in the hydraulic system. Follow the steps shown below to bleed the air from the hydraulic system.

Caution: Make certain that the Hydraulic Jack is not under load while bleeding the system.

1.Remove Oil Tank???s Oil Plug (11).

2.Pump the Handle (26) to raise the Jack to its highest position. Open the Release Spindle (18). Release the Handle (26) to lower the Jack. Repeat pumping the Handle a number of times to force the hydraulic oil through the system.

3.Top off the Oil Tank with hydraulic oil. Tighten the Oil Plug (11). The bleeding process is now complete.

4.Test the Hydraulic Jack to be certain it is working properly. Only proceed after you ensure that it is working properly.
