SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INSPECTIONS
This hydraulic trolley jack is designed to be used with a 60mm diameter head cap.
1. BEFORE EACH USE
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the trolley jack for abnormal
conditions such as cracked welds, leaks and damaged, loose, or missing parts.
2. AFTER EACH USE
Trolley jack should be inspected immediately if the lift is believed to have been
subjected to an abnormal load or shock. It is recommended that inspection be made
by manufacturer’s or supplier’s authorised repair facility.
3. ANNUAL INSPECTION
Annual inspection of the trolley jack is recommended and is recommended to be
made by the manufacturer’s or supplier’s authorised repair facility to ensure that
your trolley jack is in optimum condition.
RECOMMENDATION FOR SAFE USAGE OF THE JACK
1. The hydraulic trolley jack should be used on a hard level surface and be free to roll
during lifting and lowering.
2. The unlifted wheels of the vehicle should be chocked.
3. The load should be centrally located on the head cap.
4. No person should remain in a vehicle that is being lifted.
5. The hydraulic trolley jack should be used for lifting and lowering only; the raised
vehicle should be supported on vehicle support stands.
6. No person should get bodily under a vehicle that is supported by a hydraulic trolley
jack.
7. The vehicle manufacturer owner’s manual should be consulted prior to the lifting of
the vehicle.
8. Make sure that lift point is stable and properly centred on jack saddle.
9. Transmission should be in gear (or park for automatic transmissions) and the
emergency brake should be engaged.
10. Familiarise yourself thoroughly with this owner manual before operation to prevent
damage to jack and property, or personal injury.

Due to shipment and/or handling air can be trapped in the hydraulic system, which can
interfere with the jacks lifting. To release air from the hydraulic system:
• Open release valve by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
• Remove the oil fi ller plug from the cylinder.
• Rapidly pump jack handle through several full strokes.
• Replace the oil fi ller plug into the cylinder.

OPERATION PROCEDURES
B
efore using
1. Remove cover plate (friction fi t, easily
removes) and open Oil Filler Plug to
allow air to be vented.
2. Open Release Valve with the handle.
Turn it counterclockwise.
3. Pump handle rapidly several times.
4. Close oil fi ller plug, then replace cover
plate.
5. No person should remain in the vehicle
that is being jacked.
Raising the jack
1. Place car in park, apply emergency
brake and chocked wheel in “straight
ahead” position.
2. Close Release Valve TIGHTLY (by
applying handle turning clockwise).
3. Position jack under load so that saddle
will contact load fi rmly and is centered
so it cannot slip. Avoid off-centered load
on the saddle.
4. Operate jack handle until saddle almost
approaches to contact with load. Once
again check to see that the saddle is
correctly positioned.
5. Raise load to desired height. Transfer
the load to Jack Stands immediately.
Lowering the jack
Open Release Valve VERY SLOWLY (by
applying handle turning counterclockwise)
and never more than 1/2 turns. When
Release Valve is opened, saddle will lower
easily due to spring tension on the Lift Arm
Assembly.
Moving the jack
Place handle in Handle Sleeve. DO NOT
move the jack when handle is on the
Release Valve as this may cause damage
to the pump unit of the jack. DO NOT move
the jack when it is under load.
CAUTION
Keep clear from the vehicle when
lowering the jack.
