IMPORTANT:

Maintenance or repair must only be undertaken by fully qualified personnel. 

4.1.

When not in use ensure the lifting arm is fully down to minimise corrosion, and the handle is removed to inactivate the jack.

4.2.

Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts on a regular basis.

4.3.

To check the oil level, fully lower the jack. Remove filler plug. The correct oil level should be just below the filler plug opening.

If oil level is low, fill as required. Pump unloaded jack 5 or 6 times to expel air and then refit plug.

NOTE

: Use a good quality jack oil, such as SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL.

WARNING:

DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than hydraulic jack oil as this may cause serious damage to the jack and

will invalidate the warranty!

4.4.

Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose parts, or any visible damage to welds, ram, pump, saddle, lifting arm, frame

and all parts including nuts, bolts, pins and other fasteners. If any suspect item is found remove jack from service and take necessary 

action to remedy the problem. DO NOT use the jack if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock. Inspect and

take appropriate action.

4.5.

After a year of extensive use, the oil should be replaced in order to extend the life of the jack. To drain the oil, remove the filler 

cap and valve. Make sure that no dirt is allowed to enter the hydraulic system. See 4.3. for refill instructions.

4.6.

Periodically check the pump piston and piston rod for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.

IMPORTANT: NO RESPONSIBILITY IS ACCEPTED FOR INCORRECT USE OF THIS PRODUCT.

2) Replace oil.

3) Open release valve and air vent (if fitted) and pump the handle a few times. Close valve and re-try.
1) Check and close release valve. Replace spring if damaged.

2) Lower jack, close release valve. Place foot on front wheel and pull up lifting arm to full height by hand. 

Open the release valve to lower arm.

3) Open release valve and air vent (if fitted) and pump the handle a few times. Close valve and re-try.

6) Packing worn or defective
1) Oil level too high or too low

2) Worn seals

3) Air in system

4) Release valve not closed
1) Pump packing or valves malfunctioning

2) Oil is dirty

3) Air in the system
1) Release valve partially open

2) Dirt on valve seats

3) Air in system

4) Faulty seals

5) Packing worn or defective
1) Unit requires lubrication

2) Piston rod bent or damaged

3) Jack frame/link system distorted due

to overloading/poor positioning

4) Air in system

5) Release valve partially open

6) Jack spring damaged
1) Release valve still closed

3.2.2. Commence pumping handle up and down using full stroke range until vehicle reaches the required height. If the jack becomes overloaded,

a safety excess pressure valve will open and stop the vehicle from lifting.

3.2.3. Once the required height is reached immediately position adequately rated axle stands under the vehicle.

3.3.

LOWERING 

WARNING!

Check that no-one is under vehicle and that there are no obstacles under vehicle, or in the path of descent.

3.3.1. Take the weight of the vehicle on the jack and then remove the axle stands.

3.3.2. Turn the handle clockwise against the spring and hold to lower the load. A safety device will lower the load smoothly whilst controlling

the speed of descent. When you release the handle the spring will automatically return it to the pumping position and lowering will stop.

3.3.3. When not in use, ensure the jack lifting arm is fully down and the handle is removed. Store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
