TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Do not use damaged equipment.
If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication
1.
Before each use,
inspect the general condition
of the Jack. Check for broken, cracked, or bent
parts, loose or missing parts, and any condition that
may affect the proper operation of the product. If a
problem occurs, have the problem corrected before
further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
2.
Before each use, thoroughly test the Jack for
proper operation prior to its actual use. If the
Jack appears not to be working properly, have
the problem corrected before further use.
3.
Before each use, check oil level:
a. Lower the Jack to its lowest position. Follow
instructions on lowering Jack on Page 4.
b. With the Jack upright in a level, vertical position
and the Handle pointing down in the Fulcrum,
carefully remove the Oil Fill Plug. The oil level
should be level with the bottom of Oil Fill hole.
Top off if necessary but do not overfill. Always
fill with clean hydraulic jack oil (not included).
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Make sure no contaminants enter the Reservoir
when filling with oil. Never use any oil other
than hydraulic jack oil to fill Reservoir.
c. Reinstall Oil Fill Plug. Check Jack operation.
Bleed air from system as needed.
4. Change the hydraulic oil at least
once every three years:
a. With the Jack fully lowered, remove the
Oil Fill Plug on the side 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.
d. Then, reinstall the Oil Fill Plug and check jack
operation. Bleed air from system as needed.
5. Clean with a clean cloth with a detergent
or mild solvent. Then, store the Jack in a
safe, dry location out of reach of children
and other non-authorized people.
