PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Hydraulic Transmission Jack is designed to be
used as an aid in the removal and installation of
automotive and light truck transmissions, transfer
cases and transaxles.
WARNING
NEVER use for any purpose other than those uses
outlined above!
1. Verify that the product and application are
compatible, if in doubt call OEMTOOLs at
1-866-458-2472.
2. Before using this product, read the operator’s
manual completely and familiarize yourself
thoroughly with the product, its components and
recognize the hazards associated with its use.

3. Wear appropriate safety gear, including heavy-duty
work gloves and ANSI-approved safety goggles
during use.
4. Ensure that jack rolls freely. Raise and lower the
unloaded jack throughout the lifting range before
putting into service to ensure the pump operates
smoothly. Replace worn or damaged parts.
5. Do not exceed the weight capacity of the jack.
Make sure weight is evenly distributed. Be aware
of dynamic loading! Sudden load movement may
briefly create excess load causing product failure.
Exceeding the maximum capacity for this product
is dangerous and can lead to serious injury or
property damage.
6. Never use this device as a work/repair station.
Transfer the load immediately to a suitable work
station.
7. Always evaluate your task before using this jack.
This jack is designed to support a transmission
or a differential as individual components. Use as
intended only.
8. Assemblies such as differential with axle, or
transmission with bell housing, can be bulky and
difficult to balance. Lifting or supporting such
assemblies, even within weight limit, can create an
off-balance situation, causing Jack to tip over and
MAY lead to serious personal injury or property
damage.
9. The load should be evenly distributed on the jack,
and should not extend beyond the area of the
caster wheelbase. Always use the chains provided
to secure the load. If extra support is required,
safety straps (not included) can also be used to
secure the work piece.
10. Use only on a hard, level and flat surface
capable of bearing the combined weight of the
Transmission Jack, the load being lifted, the
operator and any tools being used.
11. If loaded jack must be moved, make certain that
load is secured by appropriate means, is stable,
is in the lowest possible position, is moved over
a smooth, hard level surface and that the lifting
platform is level.
If you are working and the load becomes off-
balance and/or the jack begins to tip over, DO
NOT ATTEMPT TO CATCH OR LIFT THE LOAD
WHEN FALLING. SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY
CAN RESULT! In this event, clear the area as
quickly and safely as possible in order to avoid
injury from the falling load, including getting hit
with flying fragments.
12. Before each use, inspect the general condition
of the Transmission Jack. Check for oil leaks,
jack operation, loose components, free rotation
and pivoting of saddle adjustment components.
If a problem occurs, have the problem corrected
before further use.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY: DO NOT USE A
DAMAGED OR MALFUNCTIONING JACK
13. The Transmission Jack is not designed to lift or
lower a vehicle.
14. If in doubt about the safety of your project,
we advise you to have the work done by a
professional familiar with applicable safety
practices.
OPERATION
Follow the instruction for removal and installation of
transmission, transfer case or transaxle according to
the vehicle manufacturer’s service manual.
1. Prior to initial use, jack up the Saddle and, using
the Release Knob, attempt to lower it. Doing so
will familiarize the user with the control functions
and Jack.
2. Once the vehicle is safely and properly secured,
position the Transmission Jack underneath the
vehicle.
3. Remove the Chain and set aside.
4. Move the Transmission Jack underneath the
transmission.
5. Close the Release Valve.
6. Pump the Handle to raise the Transmission Jack.
7. Stop just below the transmission and align the
Saddle to the Transmission with the Tilt Knobs.
8. Continue raising the Saddle up to the transmission
to determine where you will need to adjust the
Supports. All four Supports need to grip and make
contact with the transmission.
9. After determining where they need to be set,
loosen the threaded bolts on each Support, and
adjust it to the proper setting for the transmission.
Tighten the bolts.
10. Raise the unit again to make contact with the
transmission, making sure all of the supports are in
firm contact.

11. Hook the chain on the open bracket, wrap the
Chain securely around the transmission, and hook
the chain hook through the other end. Tighten the
Chain Hook securely to tighten the chain.
12. Once it is securely fastened, release the bolts
holding the transmission in place.
13. Make sure the area is clear of people and tools,
and verify that the transmission is securely held
in place. Then, slowly open the Release Valve to
lower the Transmission Jack.
14. Move the Transmission Jack from under the
vehicle and perform your desired maintenance.
15. To re-mount the transmission, reverse this
procedure.
Warning! The Jack is designed to lift loads
only for short periods of time. Do not use to
suspend a load for more than 30 minutes at a
time.
TRANSMISSION INSTALLATION
1. Move the Transmission Jack so that the
transmission is lined up properly with its
connection points.
2. Close the Release Valve.
3. Pump the Handle to gradually raise the
Transmission Jack, while guiding it into place.
4. Secure the transmission into place using its
hardware.
5. Double-check to make sure the transmission is
securely installed.
6. Disconnect the Chain and remove it.
7. Clear the area near the Transmission Jack, and
slowly open the Release Valve to lower the Jack.
8. Move the Transmission Jack clear of the vehicle.
The manufacturer and/or distributor have provided the
parts list and assembly diagram in this manual as a
reference tool only. Neither the manufacturer nor dis-
tributor makes any representation or warranty of any
kind to the buyer that he or she is qualified to make
any repairs to the product, or that he or she is qualified
to replace any parts of the product. In fact, the manu-
facturer and/or distributor expressly states that all
repairs and parts replacements should be undertaken
by certified and licensed technicians, and not by the
buyer. The buyer assumes all risk and liability aris-
ing out of his or her repairs to the original product or
replacement parts thereto, or arising out of his or her
installation of replacement parts thereto.
MAINTENANCE
Important: Use only 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
premature failure of the jack and the potential for
sudden and immediate loss of load.
Adding Oil
1. With saddle fully lowered, set jack in its upright,
level position. Remove oil filler plug.
2. Check hydraulic oil level and fill to 1/4” below the
fill port as needed.
Changing Oil
For best performance and longest life, replace the
complete fluid supply at least once per year.
1. With saddle fully lowered, remove oil filler plug.
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 position. Fill until oil is level with
the oil filler hole, reinstall oil filler plug.
Lubrication
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot
points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and
assure that casters and pump assemblies move freely.
Cleaning
Periodically check the pump piston and 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 saddle fully
lowered.
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.
