MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: Only fully qualified personnel should attempt maintenance or repair.
4.1.
When the jack is not in use, the ram should be in its lowest position to minimise corrosion. Remove
the handle to inactivate jack.
4.2.
Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts with acid free oil on a regular basis.
4.3.
To check the oil level, fully lower the jack. Remove knurled filler screw (fig.2). The correct level is
the bottom of the screw hole. If oil level is low, fill as required.
NOTE: Use a good quality jack oil, such as SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL.
F
WARNING: DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than hydraulic jack fluid as this may cause
p
serious damage to the jack and will invalidate the warranty!
4.4.
Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent or loose parts, or any visible damage to ram, pump, saddle, lifting arm, frame and all
parts including nuts, bolts, pins and other fasteners. If any suspect item is found remove jack from service and take the necessary action
to rectify. DO NOT use the jack if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock. Inspect and take appropriate action.
4.5.
After one year the oil should be replaced in order to extend the life of the jack. To drain the oil, remove the filler plug and raise the front
of jack. Make sure that no dirt is allowed to enter the hydraulic system. See 4.3. for refill instructions.
4.6.
Periodically check the pump piston and the ram for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.
