INSPECTION
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the jack, checking for
leaking hydraulic fluid and damaged, loose or missing parts. Each jack must
be inspected by a manufacturer's repair facility immediately if subjected to an
abnormal load or shock. Any jack which appears to be damaged in any way,
is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM
SERVICE until necessary repairs are made by a manufacturer's authorized
repair facility. It is recommended that an annual inspection of the jack be
made by a manufacturer's authorized repair facility and that any defective
parts, decals or warning labels be replaced with manufacturer's specified
parts. A list of authorized repair facilities is available from the manufacturer.
PROPER STORAGE
It is recommended that the jack be stored in a dry location with all wheels
touching the ground on a relatively level surface.
HYDRAULIC FLUID LEVEL
If the jack's reservoir is low on fluid or the reservoir is being filled
after maintenance follow these instructions:
1. IMPORTANT – never fill the jack's reservoir all the way as this will
affect the jack's performance. Use only hydraulic jack fluid with 22
viscosity rating to prevent seal damage.
2. Place the jack on a level surface and remove the cover plate.
3. Turn jack's pump handle counterclockwise two full rotations from
its closed position to lower the jack's lift arm all the way down.
4. Keep the pump handle parallel to the ground and remove the
fill screw in the jack's reservoir. Look through the fill screw hole
in the reservoir and make sure the fluid is level with the top of the
cylinder tube. Fluid level too low or too high will affect the jack's
performance.
5. Install the fill screw and tighten. It may be necessary to follow the
air purging procedure in the SETUP instructions of this manual.
