Safety Precautions
WARNING: Failure to heed the following warnings can result in personal injury and / or equipment
damage. These warnings cannot cover every situation, so have safety foremost in your mind when
setting up a job.
Read, understand, and follow safety precautions and operating instructions. If the
•
operator cannot read these instructions, operating instructions and safety precautions
must be read and discussed in the operator’s native language.
Wear eye protection that meets the requirements of ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA.
•
Inspect the jack before each use; do not use the jack if it is damaged, altered, or in poor
•
condition.
To prevent tipping, set up the jack on a hard, level surface.
•
The load must not exceed the rated lifting capacity of the jack. Lift only dead weight.
•
Center the load on the jack saddle; off-center loads can damage the seals and cause
•
hydraulic failure.
Use the jack for lifting purposes only. This jack is designed to LIFT loads, not support
•
loads. Immediately support a lifted load with jack stands.
Stay clear of lifted loads.
•
The safety valve is set at the factory; no further adjustment is needed.
•
Use only approved hydraulic fluid, such as Chevron AW Hydraulic Oil MV or equivalent.
•
Setup Instructions
1. Add 1/2 oz. clean lubricating oil to the air inlet, and connect the air supply. IMPORTANT: To prevent damage
to the air pump, the air supply must be clean and dry.
2. Assemble the adapter holder to the handle using U-bolts, nuts, and spring washers provided. See Figure 1.
NOTE:
When not using the adapters, store them on the holder. Lock each adapter in place with a hitch pin.

Operating Instructions
1. Tightly close the release valve knob (located on top of the “T” handle) by turning it clockwise.
2. Center the load on the jack saddle. Connect the air supply, and squeeze the air valve lever to raise the load.
Release the air valve lever to stop movement.
3. Transfer the load to support stands.
4. To lower the jack, open the release valve knob by SLOWLY turning it counterclockwise.
NOTE:
To adjust the handle, pull up and then release the lever to lock it in one of three positions.
Bleeding the Jack
Air bubbles can become trapped inside the hydraulic system, reducing the efficiency of the jack. Purge air from
the system as needed by following these steps:
1. With the jack sitting on its base and the ram retracted, bleed air by opening the release valve.
2. Pump for 10 seconds.

Pump Prime Instructions
The air/hydraulic pump may lose its prime during shipment or after long
periods without use. To prime the pump, follow these steps:
Hex Socket
Bolt
Release
Valve
1. Remove the upper cover.
2. Loosen the hex socket bolt one-half turn. See Figure 2.
3. Close the release valve.
4. Operate the air pump while repeatedly tightening and loosening the bolt.
5. When the piston begins to rise, tighten the bolt. Verify the piston can rise
to the maximum height position.
Figure 2
Preventive Maintenance
IMPORTANT: Dirt is the greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units. Keep the jack clean and well lubricated
to prevent foreign matter from entering the system. If the jack has been exposed to rain, snow, sand, or grit, it
must be cleaned before it is used.
1. When the jack is not in use, keep the piston and pump rods fully retracted. Store the jack on its base and in a well
protected area where it will not be exposed to corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any other harmful elements.
2. Maintain the oil level. If it’s necessary to add oil, remove the filler plug, and fill the reservoir with Chevron AW Hydraulic
Oil MV or equivalent.
3. Visually inspect the jack before each use. Take corrective action if any of the following problems are found:
a. Cracked or damaged housinge. Incorrectly functioning swivel heads or adj. screw
b. Excessive wear, bending, or other damagef. Loose hardware
c. Leaking hydraulic fluidg. Modified or altered equipment
d. Scored or damaged piston rod
Troubleshooting Guide
Repairs must be performed in a dirt-free environment by qualified personnel who are familiar with this equipment.
TroubleCauseSolution
Erratic Action1. Air in system
2. Viscosity of oil too high
3. Ram sticking or binding
4. Internal leakage in ram
Ram does not advance1. Release valve is open
2. Low/no oil in reservoir
3. Air locked system
4. Load is above capacity of system
5. Pump lost its prime
Ram only extends partially1. Low oil level in reservoir
2. Piston rod is binding
Ram advances slowly1. Low air pressure
2. Pump not working correctly
3. Leaking seals
Ram advances but doesn’t1. Release valve is open
hold pressure2. Ram seals are leaking
