BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC JACK
Before the first use, check for proper hydraulic oil level in the jack. Then thoroughly test the
jack for proper operation prior to its actual use. If the jack does not work properly, bleed excess
air from its hydraulic system as follows:
1. Open the release valve.
2. Remove the oil filler plug and fill the jack with hydraulic fluid to full level.
3. Apply pressure to the saddle, and pump the jack handle quickly several times.
4. Check the oil filler hole and, if necessary, top off the oil filler hole with hydraulic oil.
5. Replace the oil filler plug and close the release valve.
6. Test the jack several times for proper operation before putting it into use. If, after bleeding,
the jack still does not appear to be working properly, do not use the jack until a qualified
service technician has repaired it.
LUBRICATION
1. It is important that the tool be properly lubricated. Without proper lubrication the tool will not
work properly and parts will wear prematurely. Avoid over-lubricating the tool.
2. Use the proper lubricant and fill or lubricate parts only as necessary. Use only
recommended lubricants. Substitutes may harm the rubber compounds in the tool's O-rings
and other rubber parts.
3. Lubricate before storing. In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an
extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.,) it should receive a generous amount of
lubrication at that time.
WARNING! NEVER use penetrating oils to clean or lubricate your tool. Penetrating oil is
a solvent that will break down the internal grease and cause the tool to seize up.
STORAGE
Lubricate before storing. In the event that it becomes necessary to store the shop press for an
extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.,) it should receive a generous amount of
lubrication at that time to prevent rust.
NOTE: Store the shop press in an upright position.
DISPOSING OF THE TOOL
If your shop press has become damaged beyond repair, do not throw it out. Bring it to the
appropriate recycling facility.
