FOR YOUR SAFETY
Read all instructions, warnings and cautions carefully. Follow all safety precautions to avoid personal injury
or property damage during system operation. Jackco cannot be responsible for damage or injury resulting
from unsafe product use, lack of maintenance or incorrect product and/or system operation. Contact Jackco
when in doubt as to the safety precautions and operations.
Failure to comply with the following cautions and warnings could cause equipment damage and personal
injury.
• Stay clear of loads supported by hydraulics.
A cylinder, when used as a load lifting device,
should never be used as a load holding device.
After the load had been raised or lowered,
it m u s t al w a y s be b locked m e chanicall y.
• Do not exceed equipment rating never attempt
to lift a load weighing more than the capacity
of the cylinder. Overloading causes equipment
failure a n d possible personal i n j u r y. The
cylinders are designed for a maximum pressure
of 10,000 psi. Do not connect a jack or cylinder
to a p ump w i t h a h i g h e r p r e s s u r e rating.
• The system o p e r a t i n g pressure m u s t not
exceed the pressure rating of t h e lowest
ra t e d c o m po ne n t in th e sys t e m . Ins t al l

• BE S U R E SET U P IS STA B L E BE FO RE
LIFTING LOAD.
Cy l i n d e r s sh o u l d be pl a c e d on a fl a t
sur f ace that can supp ort the load . Where
applicab le, use a cylin der bas e for added
stability. Do not weld or otherwise modify the
cylinder to attach a base or other support.
• To avoid personal injury keep hands and feet away
from cylinder and work piece during operation.
• NEVER set the relief valve to a higher pressure
than the maximum rated pressure of the pump.
Higher settings may result in equipment damage
and/or personal injury. Do no remove relief valve.
• Keep hydraulic equipment away from flames and
heat. Excessive heat will soften packing and seals,
resulting in fluid leaks. Heat also weakens hose
materials and packings. For optimum performance
do not expose equipment to temperatures of 150°F
or higher. Protect hoses and cylinders from weld
spatter.
• Hydraulic equipment must only be serviced by a
qualified hydraulic technician. For repair service,
contact your equipment dealer / service center. To
protect your warranty, use only JACKCO hydraulic
oil.
• Avoid situations where loads are not directly
centered on the cylinder plunger. Off-center
loads produce considerable strain on cylinders
and plungers. In addition, the load may slip
or fall, causing potentially dangerous results.
• Immediately replace worn or damaged parts
genuine JACKCO parts. Standard grade parts
will break causing personal injury and property
damage. JACKCO parts are designed to fit
properly and withstand high loads.
