OPERATION
1.
Place jack on floor and press down on the pedal to release pedal lock. Pull out the lock pin
from frame.
2.
Before operation, open the release valve by turning the hand-wheel counterclockwise. Expand
the jack with the hand-wheel to place the rollers around the tyre; position the jack so both
rollers are in contact with the tyre tread. To obtain the best control of the jack while
expanding the rollers around the tyre, place your left hand on top of the left side axle and
place your right hand at the center of the pedal. Close the release valve by turning the
hand-wheel clockwise to a snug-tight position; jack may now be used.
3.
Install jack so that the unit is parallel to the sidewall of the tyre to be lifted. Leave
approximately 3/4" of clearance between tyre and jack.
This is very important
. If unit is
misaligned, the tyre may hit the axle of the jack and not the rollers; this may damage the jack
and void the warranty.
4.
To lift tyre, flip the directional lever up, then place foot on pedal, depressing the pedal with
smooth, even strokes. Cycle pedal until tyre is lifted from surface one inch or less. After lifting,
the lower the tyre is to the ground the more stable jack will be.
After lifting, be sure to
always lock the pin in place before operation.
If using more than one jack, repeat
