PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Hydraulic Axle Jacks are designed to lift, but not support, rated capacity partial vehicle loads consisting of one end
of a vehicle. Immediately after lifting, support loads with a pair of appropriately rated jack stands.
PREPARATION
Reference Replacement Parts on our website www.omegalift.com . Assemble, align and insert the handle assembly
and handle position bar into the handle sleeve, then tighten the bolt on handle sleeve to prevent accidental removal
of handle while in use.
Before Use
1.
Verify that the product and application are compatible, if in doubt call Omegalift 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, locate and 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 load.
b. Counter-clockwise, no more than 1 full turn from closed position. This is the ‘OPEN’ release valve position used
to lower the load. The further the release valve is turned counter-clockwise, the faster the load descends.
4. With ram fully lowered, remove the oil ller screw. Check oil level. Proper oil level should be just below the rim of
the opening. Reinstall the oil ller screw.
5. Pour a teaspoon of good quality air tool lubricant into the air supply inlet of the lift control valve. Connect to air
supply, then squeeze the lift control valve for 3 seconds to evenly distribute lubricant.
NOTICE: These models are equipped with 1/4" NPT air couplers. If installing a different air coupler, ensure thread
tape or compound is used on 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 ram throughout the lifting range before putting into
service to ensure the jack operates smoothly. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with Omegalift
authorized replacement parts only.
Venting Trapped Air Procedure
1. Open oil ller plug.
2. Open release valve.
3. Activate air motor to vent air.
4. Remove set screw and use a screw driver to hold down check ball while very slowly pumping air motor until oil
exiting from screw hole is steady without bubbles.
5. Reinstall set screw approximately two turns into hole (do not fully tighten).
6. Activate air motor a few additional times to vent air, while slowly tightening set screw. Ram should start to raise
as screw is fully tightened.
7. Check oil level and reinstall ller screw.

• Do not exceed rated capacity.
• Use only on hard, level surface.
• Lifting device only. Immediately after lifting,
support the vehicle with appropriate means.
• Do not move or dolly the vehicle while on the
jack.
• Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specied by
the vehicle manufacturer.
• No alterations shall be made to this product.
• Failure to heed these markings may result in
personal injury and/or property damage.
OPERATION
(ref. Figure 1)
Lifting
NOTICE: These jacks are equipped with handle position locks. To adjust the handle, release lock device by pulling the
lever up, lever is spring loaded and will lock into desired position. Ensure lever locking mechanism is fully engaged
before leaving.
To avoid crushing and related injuries:
•
Never work on, under or around a load supported
only by hydraulic jack.
•
Always use adequately rated jack stands.
• Chock each unlifted tire in both directions.
• Do not use this device to lift, level, lower, support nor
move a house, mobile home, travel trailer, camper or
any building structure.
• Be alert and sober when using this product. Do not
operate under the inuence of drugs or alcohol.
1. Connect adequate air source to the air supply inlet.
2. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended guidelines for lifting. Engage the emergency brake and chock
each unlifted wheel in both directions to prevent inadvertent vehicle movement.
3.
Close the release valve by turning the handle knob clockwise until rm resistance is felt.
4. Center jack saddle under lift point, then squeeze the lift control valve until saddle contacts the lift point. To lift,
continue squeezing the lift control valve until load reaches desired height. Simply release your grip on the lift
control valve to end lift event.
5. Transfer the load to appropriately rated jack stands.
WARNING: Never wire, clamp or otherwise disable the lift control valve to function by other than

operator's hand.
WARNING: Only attachments and/or adapters supplied by the manufacturer shall be used.

knob is turned counter-clockwise, the faster the load will descend. Maintain control of load at all times.
1. Raise load high enough to clear jack stands.
2.
Remove jack stands carefully.
3. Slowly turn handle knob counter-clockwise, but no more than 1 full turn. If the load fails to lower:
a. Use another jack to raise vehicle high enough to reinstall jack stands.
b. Remove the malfunctioning jack and then the jack stands.
c.
Use the functioning jack to lower
4. After removing jack from under vehicle, fully retract the jack to reduce ram exposure to rust and contamination.

MAINTENANCE
NOTICE: Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil. Avoid mixing different types of uid and NEVER use brake uid,
turbine oil, transmission uid, motor oil or glycerin. Improper uid can cause premature failure of the jack and the
potential for sudden and immediate loss of load. Premium hydraulic jack oil is recommended. Upon electronic
registration you will receive automatic maintentance update emails reminding you of service for your unit.
Adding/ Changing Oil
For best performance and longest life, replace the complete uid supply at least once per year.
1. With saddle fully lowered remove cover plate, then oil ller screw.
2. Lay jack on its side and drain uid into a suitable container.
NOTICE:Dispose of hydraulic uid in accordance with local environmental regulations.
3. Set jack in its upright, level position.
4. Fill with oil. Proper oil level is just below the rim of the opening. Reinstall the oil ller screw.
5. Perform Bleeding/Venting Trapped Air procedure (page 2).
Lubrication
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure that
wheels move freely and the pump functions smoothly. To help ensure trouble free operation, an inline air dryer and
oiler is recommended.
Cleaning
Periodically check the ram for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe with an oily cloth.
NOTICE: Do not use sandpaper or abrasive material on ram and pump piston surfaces.
Storage
When not in use, store the jack with saddle fully lowered.
