WARNING

Study , understand, and follow all printed materials provided with/on this device before use. Do not exceed rated capacity . Use only on hard, level, seamless surface. Use of this jack is limited to the removal, installation and transportation of transmissions, transfer cases and transaxles. Adequately support the vehicle before starting repairs. Failure to heed these markings may result in personal injury and/or property damage.

! Safety Messages !

Ensure the center of gravity is centered on the saddle. Use only chains and slings provided. If loaded jack must be moved, make certain that load is secured by appropriate means, is stable, is in lowest possible position. This is a lifting and lowering device only . Transfer load immediately to appropriate support device for service or repair. No alterations shall be made to this product.

OPERATION

Raise saddle:

1. Locate and close release valve by turning knob clockwise firmly , then pump the pump handle until the load is contacted.

2. Follow vehicle manufacturers recommended proce dures for removing the load as outlined in vehicle service manual or repair guide.

3. Secure load with provided restraints. Ensure load's center of gravity is centered on the saddle and load is stable before moving jack.

MAINTENANCE

Important: Use only a good grade hydraulic jack oil. Avoid mixing different types of fluid and NEVER use brake fluid, turbine oil, transmission fluid, motor oil or glycerin. Improper fluid can cause premature failure of the jack and the potential for sudden and immediate loss of load.

Adding oil

1. With saddle fully lowered, set jack in its upright, level position. Remove oil filler plug.

2. Fill until oil is level with the filler plug hole, reinstall oil filler plug.

Changing oil

For best performance and longest life, replace the complete fluid supply at least once per year.

1. With saddle fully lowered, set jack in its upright, level position. Remove the oil filler plug.

2. Lay the jack on its side and drain the fluid into a suitable container.

Note: Dispose of hydraulic fluid in accordance with local regulations.

3. Set jack in its level upright position.

4. Fill with good quality jack oil. We recommend Mobil DTE 13 or equivalent. Reinstall oil filler plug.

Lubrication

A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure that wheels, casters and pump assemblies move freely.

Lower saddle:

1. Slowly , gently turn the release valve knob counterclockwise, NEVER MORE THAN 1/2 FULL TURN until the load is completely lowered.

2. Immediately transfer the load to an appropriate repair fixture.

! Caution !

Be sure all tools and personnel are clear before lowering load. Dynamic shock loads are created by quickly opening and closing the release valve as the load is being lowered. The resulting overload may cause hydraulic system failure.

Cleaning

Periodically check the ram for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe with an oily cloth.

Note: Never use sandpaper or abrasive material on these surfaces!

Storage

When not in use, store the jack with pump piston and saddle in lowest position.
