Instruction Manual A model (DK) V.1 / Compac 2014 / lvm

Handling of the jack:
The most common reason for oil entering the air system is caused by wrong handling.
These types of jacks may ONLY be lifted and transported, in upright position (See Fig. 1).
Failing to keep the jack in an upright position, may cause hydraulic oil to enter the air system.
Do NOT place the jack on its side. (Not even under transporting) (See Fig. 2).
Do NOT turn the jack upside down. (Not even when lifting the jack) (See Fig. 2).
Failing to follow the above instructions may cause hydraulic oil to enter the air system.
Maintenance:
IMPORTANT: Like other pneumatic tools the air pump of the jack needs oil for lubricating the moving parts. It
is important to use a built-in air lubricator and water separator (filter) on the air supply nearby the air
connection on the Jack. Moisture and water may damage the jack even after a short time.
! USE ONLY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF OIL IN THE AIR LUBRICATOR: AGIP OSO 100, MOBIL
DTE 27, ESSO TERESSO100, SHELL TELLUS 100, BP ENERGOL HP 100.
Weekly:
Lubricate the air motor by injecting a little oil into the air connection. Lubricate the cylinder wall and spread the
oil by lifting to maximum position.
Monthly:
Lubricate all moving parts with a few drops of oil. At the same time inspect the jack and extensions for damage
and wear and tear.
Oil level:
Important! Too high oil level can cause oil leakage.
Do not fill on too much oil on this jack, it is important that the oil level is correct.
Always check the oil level, with the jack in horizontal position, and with the lifting Piston in lowered position.
Correct oil level is when the oil reaches the lower edge of the hole.
Any excessive oil must be drained, by unscrewing oil plug [A], placed on the side of the oil tank (See Fig. 1)
and letting all excessive oil run out of the drain hole, When no more oil is coming out of the drain hole,
screw on the oil plug again, and the oil level is now correct.
Oil specification:
Castrol ATF DEX II or similar oil with same specifications can be used.
! NEVER USE BRAKE FLUID!
