BEFORE USE

1. Verify that the product and the application are compatible.
2. Before using this product, read the owner's manual completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly
with the product and the hazards associated with its improper use.
3. Open the release valve (counter-clockwise no more than 2 full turns).
4. With ram fully retracted, locate and remove the oil filler plug. Insert the handle into the handle
sleeve then pump 6 to 8 strokes. This will help release any pressurized air which may be trapped
within the reservoir. Ensure the oil level is just below the oil filler plug hole. Re-install the oil filler
plug.
5. Pour a teaspoon of good quality, air tool lubricant into the air supply inlet of the lift control valve
(see illustration) Connect to air supply and operate for 3 seconds to evenly distribute lubricant
6. Check to ensure that jack rolls freely (if so equipped) and that the pump operates smoothly before
putting into service. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with original only.
7. This product is fitted to accept the popular 1/4" NPT air nipple. When installing 14" NPT nipple of
your choice, ensure that thread tape or compound is used when servicing connections.
8. Inspect before each use. Do not use if bent, broken or cracked components are noted.
OPERATION
Lifting
1. Assemble 2 pc. Handle, ensure that spring clips align with slots.
2. Secure the load to prevent inadvertent shifting and movement.
3. Position the jack near desired lift point.
4. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise until it is firmly closed.
CAUTION: Use the handle provided with this product or an authorized replacement handle to ensure
proper release valve operation do not use an extender on the air hose nor the operating handle.
When using to lift vehicle, lift only on the manufacturer's recommended lift point and in accordance
with the published guidelines in your vehicle owners manual always use jack stands to support the
load immediately after lifting.
5. lnsert and secure handle into handle sleeve. Pump handle or squeeze the lift control valve until
saddle contacts load. To end air operation, simply release the grip on the lift control valve. Never
wire, clamp or otherwise disable the lift control valve to function by any means other than by using
the operator's hand.
6. Raise load to desired height, then immediately transfer the load to appropriately-rated support
devices such as jack stands.
Lowering
1. Raise load enough to carefully remove jack stands.
2. lnsert handle onto release valve and slowly turn handle counter clockwise, 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.
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 in jury 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.
