adapters supplied by the manufacturer.
• If loaded jack must be moved, make sure that the
load is secured, stable and in lowest position.
• Transfer load immediately to appropriate support
device for service or repair.
• Shock loads may cause the sudden loss of load
and/ or cause the jack to tip or flip over violently,
bend or break.

! ADVERTENCIA
ASSEMBLY
Swing Arms: Align and insert bolt through the swinging
arm and top plate assembly. Securely tighten the bolt.
Repeat for the remaining swinging arms and bolts.
Chain: Insert the eyebolt through the roller that is
attached to the attachment bar. Securely fasten with
the provided wing nut. Ascertain the chain, the eyebolt,
hook, and wing nut are all securely fastened.
BEFORE USE
1. Verify that the product and the application are
compatible, if in doubt call Hein-Werner Technical
Service [phone].
2. Read the operator's manual completely and familiarize
yourself thoroughly with the product, its components
and recognize the potential hazards associated with
its use before using this product.
3. Lower saddle fully, locate and remove air vent screw.
Ensure the oil level is within ~3/16" from the inner
cylinder as viewed from the oil filler hole. Reinstall
air vent screw.
4. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with
Hein-Werner replacement parts only. Lubricate as
instructed in Maintenance Section.
To avoid crushing and
related injuries:
NEVER work on, under or
around a load supported
only by jack. Immediately
transfer the load to an
appropriate work station.
! WARNING
OPERATION (see Fig. 1)
Raise Saddle Assembly
1. Locate and close release valve by turning it clockwise
firmly, then pump the handle until the load is
contacted.
2. Follow vehicle manufacturers recommended
procedures for removing the load as outlined in
vehicle service manual or repair guide.
3. Secure load with provided chains.
Important: Ensure the transmission is centered on the
jack. An off-center transmission could cause the jack to
tip over resulting in personal injury or property damage.
For your safety, do not exceed 10 degree tilt angle of
the saddle assembly in all directions.
Lower Saddle Assembly
Be sure all tools and personnel are clear before
lowering load. Dynamic shock loads are created
by quickly opening and closing the release valve as the
load is being lowered. The resulting overload may cause
hydraulic system failure.
1. Secure the load to the jack with provided chain.
2. Slowly, gently, turn release valve counter-clockwise
to lower load. No more than 1/2 full turn until load is
fully lowered.
3. Immediately transfer the load to an appropriate repair
fixture.

MAINTENANCE
Important: Use only a good grade hydraulic jack oil.
Avoid mixing different types of fluid and never use
brake fluid, turbine oil, transmission fluid, motor oil, or
glycerin. Improper fluid can cause failure of the jack
and the potential for sudden and immediate loss of load.
We recommend Hein-Werner HW93291 or equivalent
hydraulic jack oil.
Adding Oil
1. With saddle fully lowered, set jack in its upright, level
position. Locate and remove air vent screw.
2. Fill with oil until ~3/16” above the inner cylinder as seen
from the oil filler hole. Reinstall air vent screw.
Changing Oil
For best performance and longest lift, replace the
complete fluid supply annually.
1. With saddle fully lowered, and pump piston fully
depressed, remove air vent screw.
2. Lay the jack on its side and drain the fluid into a
suitable container.
Note: Dispose of hydraulic fluid in accordance with local
regulations.
3. Set jack in its level, upright position and fill with oil until
~3/16” above the inner cylinder as seen from the oil
filler hole. Reinstall air vent screw.
Lubrication
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points,
axles, and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure that
wheels, castors, and pump assemblies move freely.
Cleaning
Periodically inspect the ram for signs of rust or corrosion.
Clean as needed and wipe with an oily cloth.
Note: Never use sandpaper or abrasive material on
these surfaces!
Storage
When not in use, store the jack with ram fully retracted.
