the vehicle. Check to see that the saddle is
centered and will contact the load lifting point
firmly.

stands before working on the vehicle.
Lowering the Jack
• Open the release valve very slowly by turning the

With Release Valve Closed
• An upward stroke of the jack handle draws oil
from the reservoir tank into the plunger cavity.
Hydraulic pressure holds the valve closed, which
keeps the oil in the plunger cavity.
• A downward stroke of the jack handle releases oil
into the cylinder, which forces the ram out. This
raises the saddle.
