OPERATION
BEFORE USE
• Read the operator's manual completely
and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the
product, its components and recognize the
hazards associated with its use.
• Occasionally during shipment and/or
handling air can get trapped in the system,
which can interfere with the jacks lifting
performance.
• It is recommended to cycle the jack a few
times without applying load:
• Close release valve by turning the jack
handle clockwise until tight.
• Pump the handle until the jack saddle
reaches its maximum height.
• Open release valve by turning jack handle
counterclockwise, but no more than 1/2
full turn. Allow the saddle to reach its
lowest position.
• Repeat the above procedure a few times.
• To release air from the hydraulic system:
• Open the release valve by turning the jack
handle counterclockwise, but never by
more than 1/2 full turn.
