THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
The use of portable automotive lifting devices is subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but only by
the exercise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in the use and
operation of the equipment who are careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the equipment and its proper use.
Examples of hazards are dropping, tipping or slipping of loads caused primarily by improperly securing loads, overloading, off-
centered loads, use on other than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not designed.
METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
•Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before operating this device.
•Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use jack if damaged, altered, modified, in poor condition, leaking hydraulic fluid, or
unstable due to loose or missing hardware or parts. Make corrections before using.
•Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
•Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards (users and bystanders).
•Do not use jack beyond its rated capacity.
•This is a lifting device only. Immediately after lifting, support the vehicle with appropriate means.
•No alterations shall be made to this product.
•Use only on a hard level surface.
•Do not use saddle adaptors or saddle extenders between the stock lifting saddle and the load.
•Always lower the jack slowly and carefully.
•Failure to heed these warnings may result in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT AVOIDING HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
Failure to read this manual completely and thoroughly, failure to understand its OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, SAFETY WARNINGS,
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS and comply with them, and failure to comply with the METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS

SETUP
PLEASE REFER TO THE EXPLODED VIEW DRAWING IN THIS MANUAL IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY PARTS.
1. Remove the screw (19) on upper handle (32), then insert the upper handle (32) into the lower handle (18), insert the screw (19) and
tighten it.
2. Remove the R pin (22) and nut (23) on the pin (21), insert the pin (21) through the holes on the lower handle (18), then screw on
the nut (23).
3. Connect the pin (21) with the extension rod (25) on upper handle (18) and tighten the nut (23).
4. Put the R pin (22) back on the pin (21).
5. Remove the bolt (06) on the handle socket (10).
6. Insert the lower handle (18) in the handle socket (10) and simultaneously insert the pin (21) in the guide holes on handle socket
(10).
7. Pull the lock lever (28) upwardly to prevent the pin (21) from touching the handle socket (10).
8. Rotate the release knob (31) back and forth until the bottom of the handle assembly engages with the cable inside when they are at
the bottom of the handle socket (10).
9. Move the handle assembly up and down while simultaneously pushing down the lock lever (28) until the pin (21) engages any one
of the locating holes on the handle lock (07). There are three holes totally on the handle lock (07).
10. Air valve (38) and air hose (37) are with a clasp which can make them fixed on the L-shaped hook.
11. Fix the air valve (38) and the air hose (37) on the handle assembly while connecting the air valve (38) with the air source.
12. Due to the vacuum release system design of this jack, the jack’s hydraulic system very rarely becomes air bound. Indication of an
air 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
a. Turn and open the release knob (31) with two circles in a counter-clockwise direction.
b. Depress the control lever on air valve assembly (38) for 30 seconds.
c. Turn and close the release knob (31) in a clockwise direction until being tightened.
d. Depress the control lever on air valve assembly (38) until the piston rod reaches its maximum height.
e. If the problem continues, repeat the steps from “a”to “d”several times until all air is purged from the 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. Become familiar with the identification and function of the operating jack components.
a. The ram (P24) is the shaft that comes out of the jack when you rotate the air lever to the right.
b. The ram (P24) 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. Larger diameter saddles can be inserted in the extension screw when requiring a larger diameter saddle surface.
2. Chock the vehicle's tires that will not be lifted off the ground prior to lifting the vehicle and if available, apply the emergency brake or
any other method of braking.
3. Position the jack at the designated lift point. Estimate the required ram travel to raise the vehicle to the desired height. If the desired
vehicle height exceeds the entire ram travel, unscrew the extension screw to make up the difference and add an extension adapter if
necessary.
4. Lock the handle in a position that will not interfere with the vehicle when raised or lowered. Keep the handle in that locked position until
the work is completed and you are ready to remove the jack from use.
5. With the jack in the lowered position, push the jack under the vehicle. IMPORTANT: Use the vehicle manufacturer's recommended
lifting procedures and lifting points before lifting loads.
6. In most cases 100psi input air pressure (do not exceed 200 psi) will lift the maximum capacity load not to exceed 22 tons. Rotate the
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 flat, parallel
to the ground and free from grease, any kind of lubricant, and debris. Proceed with pumping the jack in order to lift the vehicle to the
desired height. During lifting, inspect the position of the jack in relation to the ground and the ram in relationship to the load to prevent
any 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.
7. When the vehicle or load is lifted to its desired height, immediately place safety support stands (jack stands) in their designated
locations and adjust the stands' support columns up as close to the designated vehicle support points as possible. Although jack
stands are individually rated, they are to be used in a matched pair to support one end of the vehicle only. Stands are not to be used to
simultaneously support both ends or one side of a vehicle. Rotate the air lever to the left to lower the vehicle onto the safety support
stands (jack stands). Make sure the vehicle is safely supported by the safety support stands' (jack stands) saddles and not the locating
lugs of the saddles. Inspect the relationship of the safety support stands (jack stands) with the ground and the safety support stand
(jack stand) columns and saddles with the vehicle to prevent any unstable conditions. If conditions look unstable, rotate the air

KTI63197

lever to the right to raise the vehicle off the safety support stands (jack stands). Make the appropriate setup changes and slowly and
carefully lower the vehicle onto the safety support stand saddles.
8. After the work is done, rotate the air lever to the right until the jack is high enough to remove the vehicle or load from the safety
support stand saddles. Be sure load is stable. If it is not, lower load back onto safety support stands. Make appropriate setup
corrections and repeat the step again. Remove the safety support stands from under the vehicle, being very careful not to move the
vehicle.
9. Rotate the air lever to the left to lower the vehicle or load down to the ground.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
This is the safety alert symbol used for the PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE section of this manual to alert you to
potential personal injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT: The number one cause of jack failure in air/hydraulic jacks is dirt and moisture in the air motor and/or hydraulic
system.The shop air supply should be equipped with water and dirt filter traps that should be emptied or cleaned according to a
monthly maintenance schedule. An in line oil lubricator will extend the life of air/hydraulic jacks. Inoperable jacks caused by poorly
equipped or maintained shop air systems are not eligible for warranty consideration. Contaminants can also enter the air/hydraulic
system when the shop air line is disconnected from the jack air line and the line is dropped on the floor. Contaminants in the air
couplers, once reconnected, will be driven into the system.
1. Always store the jack in a well protected area where it will not be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or
any other harmful elements. The jack must be cleaned of water, snow, sand, grit, oil, grease or other foreign matter before using.
2. The jack must be lubricated periodically in order to prevent premature wearing of parts. A general purpose grease must be applied
to the threads on the extension screw. Do not lubricate any portion of the lift saddle and make sure the saddle is free from grease,
any kind of lubricant, or debris before using the jack. Jacks found to be defective due to worn parts resulting from inadequate or no
lubrication are not eligible for warranty consideration.
3. It should not be necessary to refill or top off the reservoir with hydraulic fluid unless there is an external leak. An external leak
requires immediate repair which must be performed in a dirt-free environment by qualified hydraulic repair personnel who are
familiar with this equipment. Authorized Service Centers are recommended. IMPORTANT: In order to prevent seal damage and jack
failure, never use alcohol, hydraulic brake fluid, or transmission oil in the jack. Use hydraulic jack oil, Chevron Hydraulic Oil AW ISO
32 or its equivalent Unocal Unax AW 150.
4. Every jack owner is responsible for keeping the jack label clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash external surfaces
of the jack but not any moving hydraulic components.
5. Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use the jack if any component is cracked, broken, bent, shows sign of damage or leaks
hydraulic fluid. Do not use the jack if it has loose or missing hardware or components, or is modified in any way. Take corrective
action before using the jack again.
6. Do not attempt to make any hydraulic repairs unless you are a qualified hydraulic repair person that is familiar with this equipment.
