KH3173
Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle Jack
KH 3173
Keep this manual for future reference
and pass it on with the device to any
future owners!
Intended Use
The Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle Jack is
intended for the short term lifting of
motor vehicles and only for domestic
use.
The Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle Jack is not
intended for permanently holding raised
motor vehicles in position and is not
intended for use in commercial or
industrial areas.
Safety instructions
• Only use the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle
Jack if it is in a faultless condition.
The appliance may not be used if it
has been visibly damaged!
• Use the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle Jack
only for raising and lowering motor
vehicles – not for holding them in
a raised position.
Secure the vehicle in the raised position
with axle stands to prevent it from
dropping suddenly.
• Before raising, ensure that the vehicle
cannot roll: Apply the handbrake and
place wedges against the wheels not
being raised.
• Only use the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle
Jack on firm and level surfaces.
This will help prevent the vehicle from
rolling, or shifting while it is being
raised.
• Never use the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle
Jack at an oblique angle to the vehicle.
• Do not permit children or infirm persons
to handle the appliance without
supervision. They are not always able
to recognise the potential dangers.
• Never overburden the Mobile Hydraulic
Vehicle Jack – also not for a short
period!
• Never use the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle
Jack to shift a raised vehicle. The
Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle Jack is not
designed to cope with the loading
that this would cause!
• Do not grip between the lifting arm
and the housing of the Mobile
Hydraulic Vehicle Jack. Thus you can
avoid crush injuries when the lifting
arm moves itself.
• Ensure that no one is in or under the
vehicle when raising and/or lowering
it. Otherwise there is a danger of
accidents.

Preparatory steps
1. Push the lifting levers into each
other. Turn them until they are secured
against being pulled apart.
2. Place the lifting levers onto the
release valve at the front.Turn it
clockwise to close it completely.
3. Now place the lifting levers in the
lifting lever collet .
4. Turn the lifting levers clockwise
until they are secure against being
pulled out.
5. On the first utilisation or after an
extended period of non-usage, first
pump the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle
Jack without any loading (6-7 pump
movements). This distributes the
hydraulic oil evenly again inside the
device.
Raising the vehicle
Important: Refer to the vehicle
owner's handbook to find out where
the lifting points are located. To avoid
damage, the vehicle may only be raised
at these places.
1. Push the loading plate to exactly in
the middle below the lifting point.
Note: Ensure that you place the
vehicle jack in such a position that
the lifting levers are not under
the vehicle.
2. To start, only pump until the loading
plate is just touching the lifting
point. This permits you to make
corrections if needed.
3. Now raise the vehicle until you have
sufficient clearance to position the
axle stands.
4. Permit the vehicle to drop onto the
axle stands in that you slowly open
the release valve by turning it in
an anti-clockwise direction.
Lowering the vehicle
1. First raise the vehicle a little to remove
the axle stands.
2. Then, with the lifting lever , slowly
turn the release valve (anti-clockwise) and carefully allow the vehicle
to descend.
3. As soon as the Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle
Jack is removed from under the vehicle,
the loading plate can be completely
pressed down with the foot.
Cleaning and Care
Note: The hydraulic fluid may only
be topped up by a trained technician,
or by customer service.
The Mobile Hydraulic Vehicle Jack can
simply be cleaned with a lightly oiled
cloth.
Note: Do not alter the setting of the
factory set adjustment screw, this is
only intended for repairs carried out
by customer services.
