clockwise and test the jack. If efficiency is still low, check the oil level as

CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL

If the jack has been stored for long periods, check for oil leaks before use. If 
necessary, check the oil level as follows:

1. Ensure the jack is fully lowered by turning the control valve release knob 

fully anticlockwise.

2. Remove the cover plate and the oil filler plug.

• The oil should be almost level with the bottom of the oil filler hole.

• Oil can be topped up using Clarke Hydraulic Oil (p/no 3050830 for 1 

litre).

3. Purge any air from the system and replace the oil filler plug.

4. Dispose of old oil appropriately and be sure to wipe up any spillage.

GENERAL CARE

1. Periodically lubricate the hinges, front wheels & rear castors with light oil. 

Should the arm become stiff, apply a shot of grease to the nipple on the 
top of the lifting arm.

2. Store in a dry location.

3. In the event of damage or broken components, replacements are 

available from Clarke Parts & Service.

STORAGE

1. Store in a dry place with the ram fully lowered. If stored for long periods,

CLARKE dealer, or CLARKE International Service Department.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

One of the most damaging sources of environmental pollution is oil products. 
Never throw away used hydraulic oil with domestic refuse or flush it down a 
sink or drain. Collect any hydraulic oil in a leak proof container and take it to 
your local waste disposal site.

If disposing of this product or any damaged components, do not dispose of 
with general waste. This product contains valuable raw materials and should 
be taken to your local civic amenity site for recycling of metal products.
