6 JACK OPERATION
! WARNING
ALWAYS before installation check up thoroughly whether the jack is not damaged (see
chapter 8.1.2).
ALWAYS before using check up thoroughly the jack (see chapter 6.5.).
ALWAYS safeguard the jack against drop at pushing or spreading out of loads (i.e. in
horizontal direction). A drop can take place when shifting the load and thereby unloading and
releasing the jack. Every such handling is necessary to be appreciated individually in terms of
safety.
NEVER the load weight or resultant pushing force on the head must not exceed the safe
working load of the jack.
6.1
JACK
OPERATION
INSTRUCTIONS
The jack is operated by the crank. Raising or lowering the load can be cut off in any lifting
height. A lowering brake and pawl system with forced mesh in the jack crank safeguard the
stability of the load position.
! NOTICE
At actuating force greater than 400N (it means when handling with the jack at the safe
load limit) the jack must be operated by 2 persons at least.

9
6.2 RAISING OR LOWERING
Before raising hitch up the changeover lever and set on the mark of raising – up-arrow (see
fig. 4). Carry out the raising by oscillating (eventually rotation) motion of the ratchet crank.
At the beginning of the raising before the loading of the rack jack will take place, hold
the knurled nut so that it would not be carried away by the crank at its backwards motion.
Before lowering the load, shift the changeover lever to the position on the lowering mark – down
arrow (see fig. 4). Lower down the load by oscillating (eventually rotation) motion of the ratchet
crank.
Make sure at each change of the position of the changeover lever, whether the lever gets fitly
to the socket in the ratchet crank.
First motion of the ratchet crank after reversing (after shifting of the changeover lever) is slightly
blocked. This state arises by an influence of stronger follow-through of the brake namely
at manipulation with heavier loads. In this case release the brake by more point-blank motion,
thereby you will coincidently release the ratchet crank.
6.3 RATCHET CRANK-LEVER
When raising or lowering loads the manipulation with the ratchet crank-lever is done
by the same way as it is stated in the chapter 6.2.
The ratchet crank is changed to an extended lever by folding the crank-lever handle by 90
0
(into
the lever position - see fig. 3). We use this position for decreasing the control force during
the manipulation with loads that are close to the nominal lifting capacity of the lifter.
The ratchet crank-lever is equipped with a safety shear pin against overloading (see fig. 3).
If the shear pin is sheared during the manipulation with a load, it is still possible to lower
the load even if the shear pin is sheared (after moving the reverse lever to the lowering
position).
! WARNING
NEVER extend the lever’s arm with a pipe or by any other method. The lever might get
damaged.

6.4 BEARING SURFACE CHECK-UP /floor, rough ground/
! NOTICE
ALWAYS make sure that the bearing surface is sufficiently firm to hold tightly supposed
loading for all time of handling. The installation must not be carried out
on the surface where it is not possible to determine the load-bearing capacity or
that is instable.
ALWAYS the operation personnel are responsible for the set-up!
6.5 TEST PRIOR TO USE
! NOTICE
(1) At first read again the previous articles of this manual and make sure that all steps were
correctly done and all parts are safety mounted.
(2) Visually check the jack and bearing surface whether they are without defects.
(3) Put to proof the jack function by the motion of the crank without loading.
(4) Carry out several jacking up and lowering with the suitable load (10% till 50% of the load
capacity). At the same time verify, whether the jack will hold firmly the load without slipping
when lowering and stopping.
7 OPERATION
7.1 APPLICATION OF THE JACK
7.1.1 The jack is multifunctional equipment with modification for ISO container destined for
manual jacking up, lowering, pushing and spreading of subjects in the workplace
determined by the user. It can be used not only in a current environment, but also
in environments with explosion risk in the event that there is the symbol of the protection
type marked on the label – see articles 2.3, 2.4 and 5.3 of this OM.
Application in horizontal position
All jacks of load capacity 5t and 10t have an opening in the foot which simplifies work when
pushing apart objects above head height. The lifter’s foot can be easily attached in the required
position by using a screw for example, without the need to use a helper (fig. 5).
Fastening by the help of the opening in foot
Fig. 5

11
Usage to ISO containers
All jacks of load capacity 5t and 10t can be used to ISO containers raising.
Get the jack by the handle and hang it on the container lock. The operating personnel put
the head in the corner element of the container (see Fig. 5a).
Having put the head in the corner element of container, the operating personnel can start
raising or lowering of the container (see chapter 6).
! NOTICE
Use at least two or four jack at once when raising ISO container.
7.1.2 By reason that the work with heavy loads can constitute unexpected hazard it is
necessary to follow all „Security principles“ according to the chapter 3 of this OM.
7.2 SAFETY WORK ENVIRONMENT
! Warning
(1) The operating personnel must be demonstrably acquainted with this Operation Manual; they
must adhere to valid security and hygienic regulations and must be qualified for operation
of this equipment.
(2) When working with the jack the operation staff must be equipped with gloves and
appropriate footwear.
(3) When operating by more persons always one worker must be determined who is trained
in safety at work and is responsible for jack handling.
(4) Before starting the work, the operation staff must check up whether all work area is safety
and whether there is the possibility of eventual escape from the environment of jeopardy.

8 CHECK-UP ON THE JACK
8.1
INSPECTION
8.1.1 Inspections types
(1) Introductory inspection: it precedes first use. The responsible competent person must check
up all new or repaired jacks to ensure the qualified fulfillment of requirements of this OM.
(2) The jack inspections carried out regularly are generally divided to two groups according
to inspections intervals. Intervals depend on the state of critical parts of the jack and rate
of wear, damage or malfunction. Two main groups are here marked as daily and regular
ones. The appropriate intervals are defined as follows:
(a) Daily inspection: visual check up carried out by the operation staff determined by the user
that is made at the beginning of each use.
(b) Regular inspection: visual check up carried out by the competent person determined
by the user.
1) Current operation – once a year,
2) Heavy operation – every six month,
3) Special or occasional operation – according to recommendations of the competent person
at first use and according to the order of qualified employees (maintenance workers).
8.1.2 Daily inspection
Check up at parts recommended in the section 8.2(1) „Daily inspection“, whether the jacks are
not damaged nor have no defect. Carry out this inspection also during operation in the interval
between regular inspections. Qualified employees will determine whether any defect or damage
can constitute a hazard and whether the detailed inspection is necessary.
8.1.3 Regular inspection
Carry out overall inspections of the jack in the form of recommended regular inspections.
The recommended regular inspection stated in the section 8.2(2) must be performed under
the supervision of the competent persons who will determine, whether the jack is necessary
to be taken to parts. These inspections comprise also requirements of the daily inspection.
8.1.4 Jack occasionally used
(1) Submit the jack not being in operation for a period of one month or longer but less than
a year to inspection complying with requirements in the section 8.1.2 before follow-up putting
it into operation.
(2) Submit he jack not being in operation for a period of one year to inspection complying with
requirements in the section 8.1.3 before follow-up putting it into operation.
8.1.5 Report on inspection
Keep the record of performed tests, inspections and maintenances of jacks every time. Carry
out dating reports on inspections in intervals specified in the section 8.1.1 (2)(b) and keep them
in the place specified by the user.
The person responsible for safety and determined by the user must be advised of defects
detected by the inspection or recorded during the operation.
