PREPARATION
!
WARNING: Do not lift or carry jack by handle. Handle could dislodge and jack fall, resulting in possible injury
or property damage.
Before Use
1. Before using this product, read the operator's manual completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the
product, its components and recognize the hazards associated with its use.
2. Verify that the product and application are compatible. If you have questions about the use of this jack or its
compatibility with your vehicle, call Customer Support (816) 891-6390.
3. To familiarize yourself with basic operation, use the stamped end of the provided handle to engage and turn the
release valve:
a. Clockwise until firm resistance is felt to further turning. This is the 'CLOSED' release valve position used to
raise the saddle.
b. Counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn from the closed position. This is the 'OPEN' release valve position
used to lower the saddle.
4. With saddle fully lowered and release valve closed, insert handle into handle sleeve and pump the handle. If lift
arm responds immediately, jack is ready for use. If jack does not respond, follow Bleeding/Venting Trapped
Air instruction below.
5. Ensure that jack rolls freely. Raise and lower the unloaded saddle throughout the entire lifting range before
putting into service to ensure the pump operates smoothly. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with
authorized replacement parts only.
Bleeding/Venting Trapped Air
With the release valve in the OPEN position (step 3b. above) and with saddle fully lowered, locate and remove the
cover plate, then remove the oil filler plug. Insert handle into handle sleeve and pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help
release pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir. Reinstall the oil filler plug and check operation.
