UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY

1. Remove the socket headed

screw from the handle.

2. Insert the handle fully into the

handle yoke until it engages with
the jack control valve at the base
of the yoke.

3. Re-fit the socket headed screw to

secure the handle to the jack.

OPERATION

This jack incorporates a twin piston pump with a ‘quick lift’ facility. This
provides the user with a rapid raising operation for the unladen jack. When
the jack encounters a load (the vehicle to be raised), its distance raised per
stroke reduces to provide a gradual and controllable lifting operation.

Before use, inspect the jack for oil leaks or any other sign of damage. Should
any be apparent, have the jack repaired by a qualified technician.

WARNING! NEVER WORK ON THE VEHICLE WHEN SUPPORTED ONLY BY A
JACK. THIS IS A HIGHLY DANGEROUS PRACTICE. THE VEHICLE MUST BE
SUPPORTED ON AXLE STANDS OR SUITABLE SUPPORTS, BENEATH THE
CORRECT JACKING/SUPPORT POINTS.

1. Ensure the vehicle to be raised is stable and on firm level ground with the

wheels chocked.

2. Position the jack so that the saddle is directly beneath the lifting point.

•

Consult the vehicle handbook to determine suitable lifting points.

3. Turn the control valve release

knob clockwise to close the
valve.

4. Pump either the foot pedal or the

handle to raise the saddle until it
reaches the vehicle lifting point.

5. Take care that no obstruction

prevents a clean lift. Keep all
personnel at a safe distance
before lifting the vehicle.
