Safety Precautions
WARNING: To prevent personal injury or equipment damage,
• Study, understand, and follow all instructions before operating this device.
• Wear eye protection that meets OSHA and ANSI Z87.1 standards.
• No alterations shall be made to this product.
• Before using the service jack to lift a vehicle, refer to the vehicle service manual for
recommended lifting surfaces on the vehicle chassis.
• Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use the jack if it is damaged, altered, or in
poor condition.
• Use the jack for lifting purposes only. Use approved safety stands to support the axles
before working on the vehicle.
• Never exceed the rated lifting capacity of the jack.
• Use the jack on a hard, level surface. The jack must be free to roll without any
obstructions while lifting or lowering the vehicle. The wheels of the vehicle must be
in the straight-ahead position, and the hand brake must be released.
• Center the load on the jack saddle. Off-center loads can damage seals and cause jack
failure.
• Lift only dead weight. Do not move the jack while it is supporting a vehicle.
• Stay clear of lifted loads. Use approved safety stands to support the axles before making repairs.
• Do not adjust the safety valve.
• Lower the jack slowly and carefully while watching the position of the jack saddle.
• Useonlyapprovedhydraulicuid(ChevronAWHydraulicOil
MVorequivalent).Theuseofalcohol,hydraulicbrakeuid,or
transmission oil could damage seals and result in jack failure.
• This guide cannot cover every situation. Always work with
safetyrst.

Setup
Assemble the Handle
1. Loosen the bolt (Item 64) on the handle socket (60). NOTE: Item numbers refer to the parts list on page 1.
2. Insert the handle.
3. Tighten the bolt.
Air Bleed
Air can accumulate within a hydraulic system during shipment or after prolonged use. This trapped air causes
the jack to respond slowly or feel "spongy." To remove the air, follow the instructions for both the manual pump
and the air pump:
Manual Pump
1. Openthe releasevalvebyturningthereleaseknobcounterclockwise.
2. Pump the jack handle six full strokes.
3. Close the release valve by turning the release knob clockwise.
4. If the jack does not immediately respond to pumping the handle,
repeat Steps 1–3.
Air Pump
1. Place the jack on a level surface.
2. Openthe releasevalvebyturningthereleaseknobcounterclockwise.
3. Run the air pump for 20 seconds, then close the release valve by
turning the release knob clockwise.
4. Pump the jack pedal (Item 61) until the jack reaches its maximum
height.
5. Depress the air valve while turning the release knob two full turns
counterclockwise. Continue to depress the air valve until the lift arm fully lowers. Turn the knob clockwise
until it stops. Pump normally.
6. If the jack does not immediately respond to the air pump, repeat steps 1–5, or follow the priming instructions.
Priming the Air Pump
If air cannot be bled using the air pump air bleed procedure, the air pump has lost its prime. To prime the pump:
1. Remove the cover board (Item 26).
2. Loosen the bolt (Item 46; also see Figure 1) one-half turn.
3. Close the release valve by turning the release knob clockwise.
4. Run the air pump while repeatedly tightening and loosening the
bolt. (A small amount of oil may seep from underneath the bolt
during this process.)
5. When the piston begins to rise, tighten the bolt.
6. Verify the jack will rise to its full height; add oil to the reservoir
if necessary.
Operating Instructions
Control rod in Position A: Allows you to pump the jack using the
handle.
Control rod in Position B: Locks the handle in place in three
different positions.

1. Connect the shop air supply to the jack. (Shop air should be clean, dry, and regulated at 85–142 psi.)
2. Turn the release knob completely counterclockwise, and place the control rod in Position A.
3. Position the jack under the vehicle using the manufacturer’s recommended lifting points on the chassis.
The jack must be free to roll without any obstructions while lifting or lowering the vehicle. The wheels of
the vehicle must be in the straight-ahead position, with the emergency brake released.
4. Turn the release knob on the jack completely clockwise. Operate the air valve, pump the jack handle, or
pump the foot pedal until the saddle touches the vehicle. Check the placement of the saddle lugs. Finish
lifting the vehicle.
5. Place approved safety stands under the vehicle at points that will provide stable support. Before working on
the vehicle, SLOWLY lower the vehicle onto the safety stands by turning the release knob counterclockwise.
Preventive Maintenance
IMPORTANT: Dirt is the greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units. Keep the service jack clean
and well lubricated to prevent foreign matter from entering the system. If the jack has been exposed
to rain, snow, sand, or grit, it must be cleaned before it
is used.
1. Store the jack in a well-protected area where it will not be
exposed to corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any other
harmful elements.
2. Refer to Figure 3, and regularly (at least once per month)
lubricate the moving parts shown.
3. Add grease to upper arm grease nipple (shown) every
three months.
4. If necessary, add approved anti-wear hydraulic jack oil.
IMPORTANT: The use of alcohol, hydraulic brake uid,
detergent motor oil, or transmission oil could damage the
seals and result in jack failure.
5. Inspect the jack before each use. Take corrective action if
any of the following problems are found:
• cracked or damaged housing
• excessive wear, bending, or other damage
• leakinghydraulicuid
• scored or damaged piston rod
• malfunctioning swivel heads or adjusting screws
• loose hardware
• modiedoralteredequipment
