PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Omega Long Chassis Hydraulic Service Jacks are designed to lift, but not support, one end of a vehicle. Immediately

after lifting, loads must be supported by a pair of appropriately rated jack stands. Air actuated function available for Models 22041C, 22051C & 22101C. Air actuated units require at least 7.8 CFM @ 110 - 175 PSI. A minimum of 150 PSI air pressure is required to raise rated capacity load.

NEVER use hydraulic jack as stand-alone device. After lifting, immediately support the lifted vehicle with

a pair of appropriately rated jack stands.

PREPARATION

Assembly

Always secure the handle into the handle sleeve by means of the bolt lock washer and nut provided. Tighten securely to prevent accidental removal of handle while in use.

Before Use

Verify that the product and application are compatible, if in doubt call Omega Technical Service (888) 332-6419.

2. Before using this product, read the operator's manual completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the

product, its components and recognize the hazards associated with its use.

3. To familiarize yourself with basic operation, turn the release valve (handle knob):

a. Clockwise until rm resistance is felt to further turning. This is the ‘CLOSED’ release valve position used to raise the saddle. b. Counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn from the closed position. This is the ‘OPEN’ release valve position used to lower the saddle.

4. With saddle fully lowered, locate and remove cover plate, then remove the oil ller plug/screw. Pump 6 to 8 full

strokes. This will help release any pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir. Check oil level. Proper

oil level will vary from just covering the ram cylinder to 3/16” above it as seen from the oil ller hole. Reinstall the oil ller plug/screw.

5. For air option models 22041C, 22051C & 22101C, Pour a teaspoon of good quality, air tool lubricant into the air supply

inlet of the lift control valve. Connect to air supply and operate for 3 seconds to evenly distribute lubricant.

Note: These models are equipped with the popular 1/4" NPT air coupler. When installing a different air coupler of

your choice, ensure that thread tape or compound is used when servicing connections. To ensure dependable, trouble free operation an inline air dryer and oiler is recommended.

6. Ensure that jack rolls freely. Raise and lower the unloaded saddle throughout the lifting range before putting into service to ensure the pump operates smoothly. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with Omega

authorized replacement parts only.

Bleeding / Venting Trapped Air

With the release valve in the OPEN position (3b.) and with saddle fully lowered, locate and remove the oil ller plug/

screw. Pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help release any pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir.

Reinstall the oil ller plug/screw.
