BEFORE USE
RAISING THE JACK
1. Block the vehicle's wheels for lifting stability.
Secure the load to prevent inadvertent shifting
and movement.
2. Position the jack near desired lift point.
3. Set the Parking Brake in the vehicle.
4. Refer to the vehicle manufacturer owner's manual
to locate approved lifting points on the vehicle.
Position the jack so that the saddle is centered
and will contact the load lifting point firmly.
5. Assemble the handle, ensure that spring clips
align with slots.
6. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise
until it is firmly closed.
7. Before raising the vehicle double check and verify
the saddle is centered and also has full contact
with the lifting point.
8. Pump handle to lift until saddle contacts load.
Continue to pump the jack handle to lift the
vehicle to the desired height. After lifting, support
the load with appropriately rated vehicle support
stands before working on the vehicle.
CAUTION: NEVER WIRE, CLAMP OR
OTHERWISE DISABLE THE LIFT CONTROL
VALVE TO FUNCTION BY ANY MEANS
OTHER THAN BY USING THE OPERATOR'S
HAND. USE THE HANDLE PROVIDED WITH
THIS PRODUCT OR AN AUTHORIZED
REPLACEMENGT HANDLE TO ENSURE
PROPER RELEASE VAVLE OPERATION. DO
NOT USE EXTENSIONS ON THE AIR HOSE

LOWERING THE JACK
1. Raise load high enough to allow clearance for the
jack stands to be removed, then carefully remove
jack stands.
2. Remove support stands.
3. Grasp the handle firmly with both hands. Securely
hold on to the jack handle so your hands do not
slip and ensure the release valve does not rapidly
lower.
4. Carefully open the Release Valve by slowly
turning the handle counterclockwise. (Do not
allow bystanders around the jack or under the
load when lowering the jack.)
5. After removing jack from under the load, push ram
and handle sleeve down to reduce exposure to
rust and contamination.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION
WHEN LOWERING THE JACK. THE JACK
HANDLE MAY TURN RAPIDLY. OPENING THE
RELEASE VALVE TOO FAST CAN CAUSE
THE JACK TO LOWER RAPIDLY. FAILURE TO
HEAD THESE WARNINGS COULD CAUSE
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
