THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
The use of portable automotive lifting and support 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 qualied 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 secured 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
• Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before operating this device.
• Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use jack if damaged, altered, modied, in poor condition, leaking hydraulic uid, or unstable due
to loose or missing components. Make corrections before using.
• Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specied by the vehicle manufacturer.
• User and bystanders must wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards.
• Do not use jack beyond its rated capacity. Do not shock load.
• This is a lifting device only. Immediately after lifting, support the vehicle with jack stands capable of sustaining the load before
working on the vehicle.
• Use only on a hard level surface free from obstructions so the jack is free to reposition itself during lifting and lowering operations.
• Center load on saddle. Be sure setup is stable before working on vehicle.
• Do not move or dolly the vehicle while on the jack.
• Do not use any materials that may serve as risers, spacers or extenders between the stock lifting saddle and the load.
• Do not use any adaptors that replace the stock lifting saddle unless approved or supplied by Sunex.
• Always lower the jack slowly and carefully.
• Do not use (or modify) this product for any other purpose than that for which it was designed without consulting the manufacturer's
authorized representative.
• This product may contain one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT AVOIDING HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
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 SITUATIONS could
cause accidents resulting in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
WARNING: Indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.

INSPECTION
Visual inspection should be made before each use over the life of the jack, checking for leaking hydraulic uid and damaged, loose or
missing parts. Any jack which appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED
FROM SERVICE until necessary repairs are made.
SETUP
1. Depress the upper handle lock in the upper handle while simultaneously inserting the end of the upper handle in the lower handle.
Rotate the upper handle back and forth until the handle lock seats in the lower handle.
2. Unscrew the handle socket bolt so that it will not interfere with the insertion of the handle in the handle socket. Insert the handle in the
handle socket and rotate the handle assembly back and forth until the release valve ts in the receiver in the bottom of the handle.
Secure the handle in the handle socket by tightening the handle bolt.
3. Sometimes air gets trapped in the hydraulic system during shipping and handling. If the pump feels spongy, or there is not a full
incremental pump stroke, or the jack will not raise to maximum height, follow these instructions in order to purge air from the system:
a. With the lift arm in its completely retracted position and the pump handle rotated all the way in a clockwise direction until it stops,
rotate the pump handle in a counterclockwise direction two full revolutions.
b. Proceed to pump the jack 15 full incremental pump strokes.
c. Rotate the pump handle clockwise until it stops and proceed to pump the handle until the lift arm reaches maximum height.
d. Repeat steps "A" through "C" until all air is purged from 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.
OPERATION
1. Put vehicle transmission in park or in gear and then apply the emergency brake.
To raise load: Turn the handle in a clockwise direction until tight. Position the jack under the load. Proceed to pump the handle
in order to raise the lift arm to the load. As the saddle at the end of the lift arm gets closer to the load, reposition the jack so the
saddle will contact the load rmly and the load is centered on the saddle. Make sure the saddle is correctly positioned. Raise the
load to the desired work height. Place jack stands of appropriate capacity at the vehicle manufacturers's recommended support
areas that provide stable support for the raised vehicle. DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING
OR REMOVING THE JACK STANDS! Once jack stands are positioned, turn the jack handle VERY SLOWLY in a counterclockwise
direction to lower the load to rest on the jack stands. Inspect the relationship between the jack stands and load to make sure the setup
is stable and safe. If the setup is not stable or safe, follow the preceding steps until corrected.
2. To lower load: Follow the procedures mentioned in "To raise load" section of the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS in order to raise
the load off the jack stands. Once the load has cleared the jack stands, remove the jack stands from under the load and away from the
work area. Turn handle very slowly in a counterclockwise direction until the load is completely lowered to the ground.
Once the jack's lifting saddle has cleared the load, remove the jack from under the load. DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE
LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING OR REMOVING THE JACK STANDS! CAUTION: Keep hands and feet away
from the hinge mechanism of the jack.
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.
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
caster wheels, front axle, elevator arm, handle base pivot bolts, release mechanism and all other bearing surfaces. Worn parts resulting
from inadequate or no lubrication are not eligible for warranty consideration.
IMPORTANT: In order to prevent seal damage and jack failure, never use alcohol, hydraulic brake uid, or transmission oil in the
jack. Use hydraulic jack oil, a light turbine oil, Chevron AW ISO 32 or Unocal Unax AW 150.
3. Every jack owner is responsible for keeping the jack labels clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash external
surfaces of the jack but not any moving hydraulic components.
4. 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 uid. Do not use the jack if it has loose or missing hardware or components, or is modied in any way. Take corrective action
before using the jack again.
HYDRAULIC MAINTENANCE GUIDE
IMPORTANT: Service jacks are designed for lifting purposes only; always support raised load with jack stands.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
MONTHLY or as necessary (depending on usage)
1. Using a grease gun, add grease to grease tting in the lift arm pivot shaft. (Use a multi-purpose NLGI type grease only.)
2. Lubricate all linkages and pivot points. (Use white lithium spray grease only.)
3. Remove handle; lubricate handle receptacle and handle end. (Use white lithium spray grease only.)
4. Lubricate both rear casters bearings and both front wheels. (Use white lithium spray grease only.)
Tighten all accessible hardware.
PROPER STORAGE
It is recommended that the jack be stored in a dry location with all wheels touching the ground on a relatively level surface.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Important: Service jacks are self-contained devices used for lifting, but not sustaining, a partial vehicular load. In accordance with
ASME PALD Load Sustaining Test: “A load not less than the rated capacity…shall not lower more than 1/8" (3.18mm) in the rst minute,
nor a total of .1875" (4.76mm) in 10 minutes.” Lowering within this range is considered normal operation and is NOT a warrantable defect.
PROBLEM ACTION
1. Unit will not lift rated load. Purge air from hydraulic system by following procedure under SETUP.
2. Unit will not sustain rated load or feels “spongy” under rated load. Purge air from hydraulic system as above.
3. Unit will not lift to full height. Purge air from hydraulic system as above.
4. Handle tends to raise up while the unit is under rated load. Pump the handle rapidly several times to push oil past ball valves in power unit.
5. Unit still does not operate. For a complete list of authorized hydraulic repair centers please visit
