LOAD ON SADDLE BEFORE LIFTING. NEVER WORK ON, UNDER OR AROUND LOAD UNTIL IT IS
PROPERLY SUPPORTED. TRANSFER THE LOAD IMMEDIATELY TO APPROPRIATE LYRATED JACK
STANDS. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT FOR ANY PURPOSE OTHER THAN THAT FOR WHICH IT WAS
INTENDED. IT IS OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO KEEP LABELS AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIAL
LEGIBLE AND AVAILABLE. REPLACEMENT LABELS AND MANUALS ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE
MANUFACTURER. FAILURE TO HEED THESE AND All OTHER WARNINGS PERTAINING TO THIS
PRODUCT CAN RESULT IN SUDDEN LOSS OF LIFTED LOAD RESULTING IN DEATH, PERSONAL
INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Lowering
1. Raise load enough to carefully remove jack stands.
2. Insert handle onto release valve and slowly turn handle counterclockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn. If load
fails to lower, carefully transfer the load to another lifting device and Jack stands carefully remove affected
jack, and then the jack stands. Lower the load again by slowly turning the release valve no more than 1/2 turn.
WARNING
BE SURE ALL TOOLS AND PERSONNEL ARE CLEAR BEFORE LOWERING LOAD. DANGEROUS
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 WHICH COULD CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE
3. After removing jack from under the load, push ram and handle sleeve down to reduce exposure to
rust and contamination.
MAINTENANCE
Important: Use only a good quality Hydraulic Oil DTE13 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 and pump piston fully depressed 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 and pump piston fully depressed, 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. Fill with good quality Hydraulic Oil DTE13 jack oil. Reinstall oil filler plug.
Lubrication
1. A 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.
2. Periodically check the pump piston and ram for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe with
an oily cloth. NEVER USE SANDPAPER OR ABRASIVE MATERIAL ON THESE SURFACES!
3. When not in use, store the jack with pump piston and ram fully retracted.
