PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Omega Hydraulic Bottle Jacks are designed to lift, not support, rated capacity loads consisting of one end of a vehicle.
Immediately after lifting, the load must be supported by a pair of appropriately rated jack stands.
WARNING: Never use hydraulic jack as a stand alone device. After lifting, immediately support the lifted load
with a pair of appropriately rated jack stands.

PREPARATION
Before Use
1. 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.
2. Verify that the product and application are compatible, if in doubt call Omega Technical Service [phone].
3. Assemble handle, ensure spring clips align with slots.
4. To familiarize yourself with basic operation, use the notched end of provided Pump Handle to engage and turn
the Release Valve:
a. Clockwise until rm resistance is felt to further turning. This is the ‘CLOSED’ Release Valve position used to
raise the ram plunger.
b. Counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn from the closed position. This is the ‘OPEN’ Release Valve
position used to lower the Ram Plunger.
5. With Ram Plunger fully retracted and release valve closed, pump the operating handle. If Ram Plunger responds
immediately, jack is ready for use. If jack does not respond, follow Bleeding/Venting Trapped Air instruction
below.
6. Check that the pump operates smoothly and that the Extension Screw will thread up/down easily before putting
into service. Replace worn or damaged parts and assemblies with Omega authorized replacement parts only.
Bleeding/Venting Trapped Air
With the Release Valve in the OPEN position (step 4b above) and with Ram Plunger fully lowered, locate and remove
the Oil Filler Plug/Screw. Insert the Pump Handle into the Handle Sleeve; then pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help
release any pressurized air which may be trapped within the reservoir. Oil level should be even with the bottom of
the oil ller hole. Reinstall the Oil Filler Plug/Screw.

!WARNING
• Study, understand, and follow all instructions
before operating this device.
• Do not exceed rated capacity.
• Use only on hard, level surface.
• This is a lifting device only. Immediately after
lifting, support the load with appropriate means.
• Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specied by
the vehicle manufacturer.
• No alterations shall be made to this product.
• Only attachments and/or adapters supplied by
the manufacturer shall be used.
• Failure to heed these markings may result in
personal injury and/or property damage.
OPERATION
Raising the Ram Plunger
1. Assemble Pump Handle, align spring clips with corresponding slots.
2. Place vehicle in park, with emergency brake on and wheels securely chocked to prevent inadvertent vehicle
movement.
3. Locate and close Release Valve by turning Pump Handle clockwise until rm resistance is felt.
4. Verify lift point, center jack Saddle under lift point.
5. Insert Pump Handle into Handle Sleeve and pump to contact lift point. To lift, continue pumping until load reaches
desired height.
6. Transfer the lifted load to a pair of appropriately rated jack stands.
NOTICE: Use Pump Handle provided by jack manufacturer. The handle provided with this jack will safely engage
the release valve and operate the Handle Sleeve. If handle is worn, operates abnormally, or will not positively engage
the release valve, STOP, discontinue use of the jack until a factory replacement handle can be acquired.
Lowering
WARNING: Clear all tools and personnel before lowering load. Open release valve slowly. The further handle is
turned counter-clockwise, the faster the load will descend. Maintain control of the load at all times.
1. Raise load high enough to clear the jack stands, then carefully remove jack stands.
2. Slowly turn the Pump Handle counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn. If the load fails to lower:
a. Use another jack to raise the vehicle high enough to reinstall jack stands.
b. Remove the affected jack and then the stands.
c. Use the functioning jack to lower the vehicle.
3. After removing jack from under the load, push Ram Plunger and Handle Sleeve down to reduce exposure to rust
and contamination.

MAINTENANCE
NOTICE: Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil. Avoid mixing different types of uid and NEVER use brake uid,
turbine oil, transmission uid, motor oil or glycerin. Improper uid can cause premature failure of the jack and the
potential for sudden and immediate loss of load. Premium hydraulic jack oil is recommended.
Adding oil
1. With Ram Plunger fully lowered and pump piston fully depressed, set jack in its upright, level position. Remove
Oil Filler Plug/Screw.
2. Fill with oil until just below the rim of the oil ller hole. Reinstall the Oil Filler Plug/Screw.
Changing oil
For best performance and longest life, replace the complete uid supply at least once per year.
1. With Ram Plunger fully lowered and pump piston fully depressed, remove the Oil Filler Plug/Screw.
2. Lay the jack on its side and drain the uid into a suitable container.
NOTICE: Dispose of hydraulic oil in accordance with local environmental regulations.
3. Fill with oil until just below the rim of oil ller hole.
4. Perform Bleeding/Venting Trapped Air procedure (page 3). Reinstall the Oil Filler Plug/Screw.
Lubrication
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure that
pump assemblies move freely.
Cleaning
Periodically check the pump piston and Ram Plunger for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe with
an oily cloth.
NOTICE: Do not use sandpaper or abrasive material on ram or pump piston surfaces.
Storage
When not in use, store the jack with pump piston and Ram Plunger fully retracted and air supply disconnected.
