Parts List & Operating Instructions
1. Remove the jack from service, and place it on a level surface.
2. Lower the lift arm completely.
3. Disassemble the top cover by removing the four pan head screws.
4. Clean around the surface of the oil fill plug; this will help prevent contamination of the hydraulic oil system.
5. Remove the oil fill plug, and check the hydraulic oil level. The fluid should be visible and just covering the hydraulic
cylinder. If the fluid level is low, add a high-grade hydraulic fluid equivalent to Mobil DTE #11 until the oil level just
covers the cylinder.
6. Install the oil fill plug. Clean up any spilled oil, and secure the top cover back onto the frame.
7. Test the jack for normal operation. If the lift pad doesn't rise to the correct height, repeat Steps 2–6, adding two
more ounces of oil. If this doesn't solve the problem, call the OTC Technical Services Dept.
IMPORTANT: The greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units is dirt. Keep the service 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. Store the jack in a well-protected area where it will not be exposed to corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any other
harmful elements.
2. Lubricate rotating and sliding parts at least once per month.
3. Lubricate the air inlet on the jack using 1/2 oz. clean lubricating oil; lack of oil may cause pump malfunction.
4. Grease the jack once a month using a good bearing grease. (There are grease fittings located on the pivot tube
of the lift arm, the block on the rod end of the cylinder, and on all four wheels of the jack.)
5. Keep warning labels and instructional decals clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash the external
surfaces of the jack.
6. Replace the oil in the reservoir at least once per year.
7. Inspect the jack before each use. Take corrective action if any of the following problems are found:
a. Cracked or damaged housing
b. Excessive wear, bending, or other damage
c. Leaking hydraulic fluid
