USER LIABILITY
Before using the jack, read the following instructions and precautions.
Keep this instructions sheet in an easy to find place as you may need to use it again.
This jack has been designed for use in the elevation of cars and lorries.
Do not modify the jack in any way.
Non-compliance with these rules may result in injury or damage to the user, the jack or the vehicle to be lifted.
The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for the improper use of the jack.
The non-application of these precautions may result in damaging the jack, and may even hurt users.
Inform appropriately the workers in charge of using and maintaining the work equipment, and notably on the conditions of use of work equipment, instructions, or guidelines concerning them.
Check the lifting devices:
- Check when initiating a task, upon first use of the device, whether new or second-hand, in the workshop.
- Check upon start-up, to be performed upon dismounting and refitting, modification, major repair or accident caused by a device failure.
- General periodical checks, performed on a regular basis, aiming at timely detection of any damage likely to create a hazard.
These checks concern devices powered mechanically as well as devices powered by human force. The result of these checks must be recorded in the safety log opened by the site manager.
When devices are faulty, forbid their use or repair immediately.
For manual handling, provide the staff with the individual protections required: safety shoes, preferably in materials resistant to hydrocarbons, protection gloves, etc.
In mechanical handling, unless during tests or proofing, never lift a load exceeding that specified on the device.
When using jacks, the following must be ensured:
1. the maximum operating load must be mentioned on the jack,
2. each jack must be checked:
- every year in the case of normal use,
- every 6 months in the case of heavy use,
- immediately after use in special conditions, notably after an accidental overload.
Jacks must be used only to lift or lower a vehicle. Never use a rolling jack to move a vehicle or a load.
When working under a raised vehicle:
- set a block to protect the staff from any untimely lowering of the vehicle, as well as any horizontal displacement (3),
- place a device signalling worker presence,
- if required, wear protection glasses and a cap,
WARNINGS !
1.
Before lifting a vehicle, ensure it is on a stable, flat, horizontal and clean surface (no grease nor oil) (1).
2.
Check the vehicle to lift is perfectly immobilised (2).
3.
To support the vehicle, use another appropriate means, e.g. USAG 1950 A, to work on the launched notch of security.
4.
To prevent the assembly from slipping, always centre the load on the jack properly.
5.
Never use extensions (4).
6.
When using the jack, no person must be inside the vehicle or lean on it.
7.
Check the oil level regularly (5). Conversely, too much oil can damage or alter the adjustment of the devices (see « instructions before use» ).
8.
When changing the oil, never use brake fluid, alcohol, glycerine, detergents, motor oil or used oil. Using dirty oil can cause major internal damage to your equipment. For more information, contact your USAG
distributor directly. USAG recommends using the oil reference WA.21 (5) .
9.
Check the precaution label is legible at all times.When retrofitting your equipment, these labels are available (6) as well as the operating instructions
10.
If the equipment is blocked, the user should lift the vehicle with another jack until get free the blocked one, to take out it.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PERFECT USE
1.
Before each use, check the jack. You must particularly check for oil leaks, damaged or missing parts.
2.
Faulty parts must be replaced by skilled staff with USAG original parts.
3.
Each part in the jack must be checked in case of load considered abnormal or following a shock.
4.
It is necessary for the operator to be able to observe the lifting device and the load during all movements. In the presence of dangerous conditions, such as movement of the vehicle, etc, the lifting process must
be interrupted.
5.
The jack should be positioned so as to avoid the need for the user to introduce any part of his/her body underneath the vehicle. Never work under a raised vehicle without previously supporting it with mechani-
cal stands or other appropriate methods. Never position any part of your body near the movable elements of the jack.
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Checking the oil level
Before using the jack, bleed the hydraulic circuit to remove air from the valve system.
- Insert the operating lever arm into its socket and tighten the screw.
- Pull back the operating lever, turn in a clockwise direction and pump several times to lubricate the inside of the jack and expel any air.
- Release the handle and it will automatically return back to the initial position (Dead man principle).
- The jack is now ready to be used.
Important: Prior to lifting the load, ensure that all of the aforementioned safety instructions are followed.
To check or top-up the oil level, place the piston in the down position. Remove the plug and pour the contents into a container.
With the jack in a horizontal position, refill with the correct volume of oil shown in the table (page 2). Do not allow impurities to enter the oil.
The oil should be changed after prolonged use to extend the life of the jack.
IMPORTANT: Filling with oil above the indicated maximum level may cause the jack to malfunction.
Fill with the correct amount of USAG oil (reference WA.21) (5).
INSTRUCTIONS OF USE
1.
Lifting the load
Before lifting the vehicle, ensure that it is fully immobilised on a flat, horizontal surface (1) and (2). The jack must be placed on a stable surface completely free of grease.
The wheels of the jack must turn freely.
First bring the jack into contact with the lifting point using the pedal (7).
Lift the vehicle by pumping the operating handle up and down (8), using the full piston stroke. Wedge the vehicle with axle stands (3).
2.
Lowering the load
To lower the vehicle, first raise it a little to allow the axle stands to be removed. Turn the lever clockwise, after first having checked that there are no persons or obstacles beneath the vehicle (9).
Once the vehicle is lowered, release the lever which will return to its initial position.
2510 B
These jacks have mechanical safety device (A), which acts automatically when reaching lifting height of 290 mm.
A gauge will appear in the upper cover window (B1) indicating that the mechanical blocking system is activated.
To unlock the mechanical safety lift the jack lightly and open the Release Valve as per point (C).
