BEFORE USE
Air may become trapped in the hydraulic system during transit.
To purge air:
1. Open release valve by turning knob counterclockwise.
2. Pump handle rapidly 4 full strokes. This will expel air that
may have entered hydraulic fluid passages during transit.
3. Close release valve by rotating knob clockwise and pump
handle.
4. If lift arm raises, jack is ready for use. If not, repeat this
procedure.
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, 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.
MAINTENANCE
All moving joints require lubrication often. Oil all lift arm
linkages, front wheels and rear casters.
