JACKING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
Jacking of aircraft and working around or under jacked aircraft are hazardous work operations
and should only be attempted by experienced personnel.
IF IN DOUBT, SEEK EXPERIENCED INDIVIDUALS TO HELP YOU
RAISING:
Always jack on a level surface.
Center the jack under the aircraft jack point.
When all required jacks are in place, jack the aircraft evenly, using multiple personnel or moving
from jack to jack, as needed, to maintain a relatively level attitude.
When the aircraft is at the desired height, engage the safety collars using the following method:
Lower the safety collar into a position 1/8” above the cylinder and tighten securely.
Slowly release the pressure in the ram. Lower the load onto the collar, to determine if the collar is
tight enough to support the load.
If the load is held; pump the jack handle enough to restore pressure to the ram - taking the load off
of the safety collar.
If the load slips at all; raise the load off of the safety collar, retighten and re-test as above.
LOWERING:
Pump the jack handle to raise the load off of the safety collar.
Loosen the safety collar bolts, to allow the collar to slide up the ram as it is lowered.
Slowly lower the aircraft, evenly, using multiple personnel or moving from jack to jack, as needed,
to maintain a relatively level attitude.
Safely slide the jacks from under the aircraft.

SUGGESTED JACK TESTING and REFILL PROCEDURES
CHECKING OIL LEVEL
The easiest method is to simply pump the unloaded jack to its maximum length.
If the jack reservoir contains adequate oil it will reach its full extended length and the jack handle will
become difficult to pump as you will feel the oil bypassing.
If the jack reservoir contains inadequate oil it will not reach its full extended length and the jack handle
will be less difficult to pump and the ram will not advance upward.
ADDING HYDRAULIC JACK OIL
Stand the jack on its base and carefully remove the rubber drain plug by twisting as you work it out from the
side of the jack body.
Place the jack on its side with the fill hole up and add oil using a small funnel.
An ounce of oil will gain you about an inch of lift – do not over fill – As you add oil periodically stand the
jack up and pump it to determine if it has adequate oil to reach full extension.
If the jack reservoir contains adequate oil it will reach its full extended length and the jack handle will
become difficult to pump as you will feel the oil bypassing.
When filled, carefully reinstall the plug. Place the plug at a slight angle to the hole and assist the bulbous
end into the hole using a small flat blade screw driver. Once it is started twist and push the plug until it is
seated against the jack housing.
HOW MUCH OIL WILL I NEED & WHAT OIL SHOULD I USE?
From empty, depending on the model, each jack will take between 1 and 2 quarts of commercially available
hydraulic jack oil (10W). If a commercial product is unavailable 10W Mineral Oil or 10W non-detergent
motor oil can be substituted.
MY JACK ONLY RISES ON ONE STROKE - NOT BOTH
That is a common problem when a new jack is placed into service. Long ram jacks are designed to be used
in the vertical but by necessity are shipped in the horizontal.
What has happened is that air has entered the hydraulic chamber and an air lock has occurred. To clear the
air lock, pump the jack up about 12”, open the valve and physically push the Ram down, you should hear a
burp. Retest.
If the problem has not cleared, next place the jack on the floor, open the valve and manually pull the Ram
up out of the cylinder to its full extension. This will pull oil from the reservoir through both pump chambers
and into the ram chamber.
At this point, manually push the Ram down to the bottom of its stroke – listen for air (Burp) toward the end
of the stroke. Retest.
If the problem has not cleared please call for assistance, repair or replacement.

RESEAL PROCEDURES
LEAKING PUMP PISTON SHAFT
Do not drain jack oil.
Place the jack on its side with the pistons up and the valve chamber elevated to drain the oil from the
valve section into the reservoir.
Remove the rocker assembly pins as necessary to gain access to the piston shaft and remove the leaking
piston.
Replace the seal or seals as appropriate and carefully reinstall the piston.
Note – when reinstalling a Double Seal assembly, if the cup is difficult to reinsert it is advisable to
remove the pump housing from the valve body, remove any paint and/or burrs from the piston shaft
and reinsert the piston from the bottom to avoid damaging the new seal.
Reassemble the rocker assembly and preform an operational test.
LEAKING or WORN CONTROL VALVE SEAL
Do not drain the jack oil.
Place jack on its back with the control valve up and the valve chamber elevated to drain the oil from the
valve section into the reservoir. Remove the control valve pin and viewing through the hole you will
see the seal.
With a small screw driver or pick push the seal in enough to roll it sideways and pick it out. Remove
the check ball and clean the chamber with spray carb or brake cleaner; reinstall the check ball.
Install the new seal using a small Philips screw driver or rod as a guide. Do not push it all the way in;
it can block the oil return path. Stop 6 or 7 threads down as the Control Pin will force it into position.
Clean and lubricate the control pin and reinstall. and test.
WORN RAM SEALS, LEAKING TOP GLAND or HOUSING
Drain the Oil
Caution – The bottom housing seal and the Ram vinyl Support Seal are directional.
Stand the jack on its base and carefully remove the rubber drain plug by twisting as you work it out
from the side of the jack body.
Place the jack on its side over a bucket and drain.
Lock the Valve Body in a large vice and remove the top Gland.
Slide out the Gland and Ram as an assembly.
Remove paint from Ram and deburr prior to reassembly
Remove the outer Housing, the Ram Cylinder tube can remain attached to the Valve Body.
Replace -
· Ram, Lower “O” Ring and vinyl Support.
· Valve Body to Housing base seal
· Top Gland to Ram interior “O” Ring
· Top Gland to Housing vinyl seal.
· Reassemble - Refill and test.
