bound system is a ram that does not rise smoothly. In some extreme case of an air bound system, air can be purged by following this
procedure:
PURGING AIR FROM THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential
personal injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
1. Becomefamiliarwiththeidenticationandfunctionoftheoperatingjackcomponents.
a. The ram
(#32)
is the shaft that comes out of the jack when you rotate the air lever to the right.
b. The ram
(#32)
is equipped with an extension screw which can be unscrewed to extend from the ram if there is not enough hydraulic
stroke to raise the load to the desired height. If additional height is required, extension adapters can be inserted in the hole on top of
the extension screw.
c. Largerdiametersaddlescanbeinsertedintheextensionscrewwhenrequiringalargerdiametersaddlesurface.

other method of braking.
3. Positionthejackatthedesignatedliftpoint.Estimatetherequiredramtraveltoraisethevehicletothedesiredheight.Ifthedesired
vehicle height exceeds the entire ram travel, unscrew the extension screw to make up the difference and add an extension adapter if
necessary.
4. Lockthehandleinapositionthatwillnotinterferewiththevehiclewhenraisedorlowered.Keepthehandleinthatlockedpositionuntil
the work is completed and you are ready to remove the jack from use.
5. Withthejackintheloweredposition,pushthejackunderthevehicle.IMPORTANT:Usethevehiclemanufacturer'srecommendedlifting
procedures and lifting points before lifting loads.
6. Inmostcases100psiginputairpressure(donotexceed200psig)willliftthemaximumcapacityloadnottoexceed22tons.Rotatethe
air lever to the right until the top of the ram comes close to the designated lift point. Make sure the designated lift point is at, parallel
tothegroundandfreefromgrease,anykindoflubricant,anddebris.Proceedwithpumpingthejackinordertoliftthevehicletothe
desiredheight.Duringlifting,inspectthepositionofthejackinrelationtothegroundandtheraminrelationshiptotheloadtopreventany
unstable conditions from developing. If conditions look like they are becoming unstable, slowly lower the load and make appropriate setup
corrections after the load is fully lowered.
