DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE SAFETY VALVE SEAL
BOLT AND ADJUST THE VALVE.
PLEASE USE THE FOLLOWING DIAGRAM WHEN THERE IS A NEED TO FILL AND
BLEED THE JACK’S OIL RESERVOIR.
Included with the jack is a Bleeder Valve that can be used instead of the oil reservoir seal
bolt. Simply replace the seal bolt with the Bleeder Valve. The seal washer must also be
used. To add oil to the jack, remove the bleeder valve and add oil as per manual
instructions, then replace the valve. The operation of the Bleeder Valve is completely
automatic and no adjustment by the consumer is needed. To bleed the jack, turn the
handle 1-1/2 turns counter clockwise and pump the handle assembly several times to
purge air from the hydraulic system. The valve will also automatically purge air from the
hydraulic system during regular use.

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
Handle Assembly
1. Insert the upper handle (20), into the lower handle.
2. Loosen the handle base screw (19). Insert the handle assembly into
the handle base (17), engaging the
release valve. (See figure 1)
3. Tighten the handle base screw (19)
Operation
1. Test the jack by turning the handle
completely clockwise, and pump
the handle up and down. The jack saddle should rise & stay at that level
2. Turn the handle counter clockwise. The saddle should lower completely.
3. Position the jack under the equipment or vehicle to be lifted.
4. Turn the handle clockwise to close
the release valve.
5. Pump the handle up and down until the
jack just touches the item being lifted.
Adjust the jacks position so that the
equipment or vehicle being lifted is
centered on the jack’s saddle.
6. Continue pumping the handle up and
down until the jack is fully extended, or
the equipment is lifted to the
desired height.
7. Place jack stands, or other support devices under the equipment
before attempting to perform any work in or around it. (See figure 2)
8. Slowly and carefully lower the load by turning the handle counter
clockwise in extremely small increments.
9. When the jack is no longer being used. Store the jack with the release
valve open (handle turned completely counter clockwise).
Important: When adding or replacing hydraulic fluid, always use a quality
hydraulic fluid. DO NOT use brake fluid, alcohol, detergent motor oil or
dirty oil, as improper fluid can cause serious internal damage to the jack.
To add hydraulic fluid: With the saddle fully lowered and the jack on level
ground, remove filler plug. Hydraulic fluid should be filled to the level of
the hydraulic fluid filler plug hole. If hydraulic fluid level is low, add fluid
as needed.
