IMPORTANT!
PLEASE READ
Only raise your QuickJack Frames
with a Vehicle on them!
The QuickJack is designed and engineered to be used with the weight of a Vehicle on it. You
should only raise the QuickJack Frames with the weight of a Vehicle on them, even the very
first time you use them (with the exception of bleeding the Hydraulic Cylinders). There is
simply no reason to raise your QuickJack Frames unless there is a Vehicle on them.
Why are we telling you to do it this way? Because your QuickJack Frames may occasionally
become stuck up in the air if you raise them without the weight of a Vehicle.There is nothing
wrong with them if this happens, and the issue can be quickly and easily fixed, it is just that
they are designed and engineered to work with the weight of a Vehicle.Only raise your
QuickJack Frames with a Vehicle on them.
And since we have your attention…
Do not remove your Vehicle’s tires then lower the QuickJack to the ground.
The QuickJack requires space between the ground and your Vehicle to build up enough force
to raise a Vehicle. It cannot raise a full load from a completely flat starting position.
Do
Not
Do
This!
This is not a problem in normal operation, as the Vehicles you want to raise are being held well
above the ground by their tires. The problem generally happens when people lower the
QuickJack to a completely flat position with the Vehicle’s tires removed.
What do you do if either of these problems happens to you? Refer to Troubleshooting.

QuickJack™ Portable Car Jack 5P/N 5900263 — Rev. B6 —September 2023
Shipping
Your QuickJack was carefully checked before shipping. Nevertheless, you should thoroughly inspect
the shipment before you sign to acknowledge that you received it.
When you sign the bill of lading, it tells the carrier that the items on the invoice were received in good
condition.
To protect yourself, do not sign the bill of lading until
after
you have inspected the
shipment.
If any of the items listed on the bill of lading are missing or are damaged, do not accept the
shipment until the carrier makes a notation on the bill of lading that lists the missing and/or damaged
goods.
If you discover missing or damaged goods after you receive the shipment and have signed the bill of
lading, notify the carrier at once and request the carrier to make an inspection. If the carrier will not
make an inspection, prepare a signed statement to the effect that you have notified the carrier (on a
specific date) and that the carrier has failed to comply with your request.
It is difficult to collect for loss or damage after you have given the carrier a signed bill of lading. If this
happens to you, file a claim with the carrier promptly. Support your claim with copies of the bill of
lading, freight bill, invoice, and photographs, if available. Our willingness to assist in helping you
process your claim does not make us responsible for collection of claims or replacement of lost or
damaged materials.
Safety
Refer to ANSI/ALI ALIS Standard (current edition) Safety Requirements for Installation and Service of
Automotive Lifts for more information about safely installing your QuickJack.
Important Before proceeding any further, we suggest checking the QuickJack Website to
ensure you have the latest version of the manual for your QuickJack.

QuickJack Safety Information
Please note the following:
•The product is a portable car jack. Use it only for its intended purpose.
•Read this manual thoroughly before installing, operating, servicing, or maintaining your QuickJack.
•The product should only be operated by authorized personnel.
•Do not make any modifications to the product.
•QuickJack is approved for indoor installation and use only. Outdoor installation is
prohibited. Your QuickJack is portable, however, so if you end up taking it outdoors, remember to
protect it from the weather (for example, from falling dirt, rain, sleet, and snow).
•Never exceed the rated capacity of the jack.
•Make sure all operators read and understand this Setup and Operation Manual. Keep the manual
near the device at all times.
•Do not use the product while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
•Make a visual inspection of the product before using it each time. Check for damage or missing
parts. Do not use the product if you find any of these issues. Instead, stop using it, then contact
QuickJack at quickjack.com/support or support@quickjack.com.
•Make a thorough inspection of the product at least once a year. Replace any damaged or
severely worn electrical cables, Hydraulic Hoses, decals, or warning labels. Do not use the product
until damaged or worn items have been replaced.
•You must always wear OSHA-approved (publication 3151) personal protective equipment when
installing, using, maintaining, or repairing the QuickJack: leather gloves, steel-toed work boots, eye
protection, back belts, and hearing protection.
•Remove all jewelry while working with the product. Dangling jewelry can get caught in moving
parts; metal jewelry can conduct electricity. Avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing.

QuickJack™Portable Car Jack 7P/N 5900263 —Rev. B6 —September 2023
•While handling a Hydraulic Cylinder or a Hydraulic Hose, also wear gloves. In rare cases, a needle-
like stream of hydraulic fluid (even at low pressure) can penetrate fingers, hands, or arms; such a
puncture can feel like a bite, electric shock, or a prick. While it may seem like a minor issue, any
amount of Hydraulic Fluid injected into the human body is a serious issue. Anyone suffering such a
puncture wound should be immediately taken to a hospital emergency room to determine the
extent of the injury. Explain the circumstances of the injury to the attending physician, including
what kind of Hydraulic Fluid was involved. Do not assume a puncture wound that could have been
caused by Hydraulic Fluid is a minor issue; it could be life threatening.
•Floor surface must be dry, flat, and have a minimum compressive strength of 500 PSI. The Lift
must not sink into the ground or crack the surface under the weight of the Vehicle.
•Avoid using an extension cord; they can overheat. If you must use an extension cord, make sure it
is No. 14 AWG / 2.5mm2minimum.
•Exercise caution in locating the electrical cable and Hydraulic Hoses; do not drive over or step on.
•Clear the area if a Vehicle is in danger of falling off the jack.
•Make sure both Lock Bars are engaged before nearing an elevated Vehicle.
•As an added precaution, you must always use auxiliary safety stands under the Vehicle while
elevated on both QuickJack Frames.

Components
The following image shows the main components of a QuickJack.
Not all components shown. Not drawn to scale.
QuickJack components include:
•Two QuickJack Frames. The Frames, working together, raise and lower Vehicles.
The two Frames are not interchangeable. The Lock Bars, described below, must be on the
outside when you orient the Frames.
•Eight rubber Lift Blocks. Four are medium height (2 inches) and four are tall (3 inches high).
The Lift Blocks can be placed in different locations in the Receiver Trays, allowing you to contact
the factory-recommended Lifting Points on a wide variety of Vehicles. Always use Lift Blocks; do
not raise a Vehicle on just the QuickJack Frames.
Note:You can stack one medium and one tall block together, but not more than that.
If you have a Vehicle with a unibody/pinch-weld frame, QuickJack recommends ordering optional
Pinch-Weld Blocks, available on the QuickJack website.If you have an SUV or truck, there
is an SUV and Light Truck Adapter available for these Vehicles, also on the QuickJack website.
If you are going to be raising Vehicles with very low ground clearance, low-profile Lift Blocks are
available as Accessories.

QuickJack™Portable Car Jack 9P/N 5900263 —Rev. B6 —September 2023
•One Power Unit (includes Pendant Control). Not shown. Provides power to the QuickJack
Frames. There are three Power Units available: 110 VAC, 220/240 VAC, CE-approved 220 VAC.
CE/UKCA approved Power Units part numbers 5585360 / 5585760 / 5585739.
•Parts Bag. Holds the components used during setup; includes the Hydraulic Fittings.
•Two Power Unit Quick-Connect Fittings. One end connects to the Long Hydraulic Hose,
while the other end connects to a Hydraulic Port on the Power Unit.
•Two Male Quick-Connect Fittings. One end connects to the Short Hydraulic Hose, and the
other end connects to the Long Hydraulic Hose.
•Four Female Quick-Connect Fittings. One goes on each end of the Long Hydraulic Hose.
Two per each Long Hydraulic Hose.
•Two Short Hydraulic Hoses. Connect one end to the Hydraulic Cylinder on each Frame and
on the other end to one of the Long Hydraulic Hoses. Note that the Short Hydraulic Hoses must
be routed under the bottom of the Frame, never over the Frame.
•Two Long Hydraulic Hoses. Connect one end to the Power Unit and on the other end to one
of the Short Hydraulic Hoses.
Tip To move your QuickJack components: disconnect the Long Hydraulic Hoses either
at the Power Unit or at the Short Hydraulic Hoses. This is easier than trying to move
the QuickJack with all components connected.
•Two Frame Positioning Handles. Used to easily move the QuickJack Frames, usually to
position the Frames under the Vehicle’s factory-recommended Lifting Points.
•Lock Bars. The two Lock Bars, one on each QuickJack Frame, hold the Frames in position when
they are raised.
Only leave the QuickJack either fully lowered or engaged on a Locking Position.
•Hydraulic Cylinder and Auxiliary Pneumatic Spring. Each QuickJack Frame has one
Hydraulic Cylinder and one Pneumatic Spring. The Hydraulic Cylinder receives Hydraulic Fluid from
the Power Unit, which is used to move the Frames up and down. The Pneumatic Spring acts like a
spring to assist in lowering the Frames.
•Wheels. The two Wheels on the non-sticker end of each QuickJack Frame allow you to easily
move the Frame to a different location. Note that the Wheels and the weight of the Frame can
leave marks on some floors, so be careful using them.
•Handles. On the sticker end of each QuickJack Frame is an opening that can be used as a
Handle when you are moving the Frame. To pick up a Frame by its Handle, with one hand raise the
Frame just off the ground under the large yellow sticker, then put the other hand in the Handle and
continue to raise the Frame.
⚠DANGER Pinch and crush hazard! Keep clear of the QuickJack mechanism as it lowers.
Be careful not to pinch or crush your fingers when lowering the Frame to the
ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What kinds of Vehicles can I raise using my QuickJack?
Answer: A wide variety. The two main criteria are: is the curb weight of the Vehicle under the weight
capacity of your QuickJack and do the QuickJack’s Lift Blocks contact the Vehicle’s factory-
recommended Lifting Points? If the answers are yes, and for most Vehicles the answers are yes, then
you can raise the Vehicle.
Q: What if I want to raise a Vehicle that is slightly over the weight capacity of my QuickJack?
A: This is not an intended use of the product. We strongly recommend against trying to raise a Vehicle
that is heavier than the rated capacity of your QuickJack.
Q: Do the QuickJack Frames have a “left” and “right” orientation?
A: Yes. Put your QuickJack Frames next to each other with both Lock Bars on the outside and the
end with the QuickJack Sticker away from you.
Q: Can I use my QuickJack outdoors?
A: No. The QuickJack is approved for indoor installation and use only. Outdoor installation is
prohibited. Your QuickJack is portable, however, so if you end up taking it outdoors, remember to
protect it from the weather (for example, from falling dirt, rain, sleet, and snow).
Q: Can I drive on the QuickJack Frames?
A: A Vehicle can be above your QuickJack Frames (this is normal operation, in fact), but do not drive
a Vehicle on the QuickJack Frames or the Hydraulic Hoses; this damages them.
Q: What happens if I raise a Vehicle on my QuickJack but do not leave it in a locked position?
A: First, do not do this; it is a safety hazard. Second, because the QuickJack is not in a locked
position, the weight of the Vehicle will eventually lower it to the ground. Always follow this rule: if you
raise a Vehicle, engage it on a locking position or lower it back to the ground.
Q: How long can I leave a Vehicle raised on my QuickJack?
A: As long as you want, if it is engaged on a locking position. Once your QuickJack is
engaged on a locking position, gravity holds it in place; a loss of power or leaking Hydraulic Fluid
would not cause the QuickJack to lower.
Q: Anything else I should know about my QuickJack?
A: Two things. First, do not raise your QuickJack Frames to full height with no Vehicle
on it. QuickJack Frames are built to hold the weight of a Vehicle; they may get stuck at full rise if there
is no weight on them. Always raise your QuickJack Frames with a Vehicle on them. Second, do not try
to raise a Vehicle from a no net rise position (meaning if you lower the QuickJack Frames to the ground
while the Vehicle’s tires are removed). QuickJack needs some space to build up enough mechanical
force to raise a Vehicle.

About Thread Sealants
Your QuickJack comes with a bottle of Liquid Thread Sealant. Thread Sealant lubricates and fills the
gaps between the Fitting threads and leaves no residue that could contaminate the Hydraulic Fluid.
When Hydraulic Fittings are assembled and tightened properly, there should be no Hydraulic Fluid
leaks during equipment operation and no internal fluid contamination to disrupt the performance of
your QuickJack.
The same goes for Thread Seal Tape (like Teflon®Tape) or Liquid TPFE (Thread Sealer). Both are
approved Thread Sealants for QuickJack, and if used correctly, there should be no evidence of
Hydraulic Fluid leaks during equipment operation or Hydraulic Fluid contamination that could cause
equipment malfunction.
To apply Liquid Thread Sealant:
1. The ambient temperature when applying thread sealant should be between +46°F and +83°F /
+8°C and +28°C.
2. Verify the Fittings and connectors you are going to use are clean and dry.
If you are adding Thread Sealant to a Fitting or connector that has already been used with a
different sealant, use a wire brush to thoroughly remove the old sealant before adding more.
3. Apply a small amount of Thread Sealant to the first four threads (skipping the first thread) of the
Fitting.
⚠WARNING Make sure to wear the proper protective equipment when handling Thread Sealant.
You only need a small amount because the sealant spreads to the other threads as it is tightened
into place. If you apply too much, the excess liquid will be pushed out when the Fitting is tightened;
use a rag to wipe the excess.
4. Hand tighten the Fitting into the connector, then fully secure by making 2-3 full turns with the
appropriately sized wrench.
5. Allow a minimum of 24 hours curing time, before pressurizing the system.
Liquid Thread Sealant or Thread Seal Tape?
We have found that much QuickJack criticism or
warranty-related claims were caused by Hydraulic
Fluid contamination, with evidence of Thread Seal
Tape particles inside the Power Unit components
and the Reservoir.
To prevent this contamination, QuickJack is supplying a Liquid Thread Sealant in lieu of Thread Seal
Tape. If you want to use Thread Seal Tape over Liquid Thread Sealant, by all means, use what you are
most familiar with. However, you must carefully read and use the following instructions.
Important Notes:
•Thread Seal Tape must wrap Clockwise around the threads for it to work properly. Some
customers incorrectly wrap it backward, resulting in the Tape unwinding as the Fitting is being
tightened.
•Use only 2-3 turns of Thread Seal Tape. Never allow Thread Seal Tape to overlap the
end of the NPT Fitting threads; the overlapping Tape will separate during tightening and
Setup

enter the Hydraulic System and contaminate the Power Unit components and the Reservoir,
resulting in equipment malfunction.
•As a rule, Fittings with tapered threads should not be assembled to a specific torque, as the
amount of torque varies with thread quality, Port and Fitting materials, sealant used, and other
factors.
•When installing the QuickJack Hose Fittings, hand-tighten the Fittings together, then 2-3 turns after
using a Wrench. Once done, make sure to check all Hydraulic Hoses and Fitting
connections before raising a Vehicle.
Assemble the Short Hydraulic Hoses
To assemble the Short Hydraulic Hoses, you will need from Box 3:
•Two Short Hydraulic Hoses (5570233).
•Two Male Quick-Connect Fittings (5550032).
The following graphic shows the connections to make to the Short Hydraulic Hoses.

Sealant.
3. Attach a Male Quick-Connect Fitting to the male threaded end of the Short Hydraulic Hose; make
2-3 full turns using a wrench to securely tighten in place.
⚠CAUTION Allow 24-hours for the thread sealant to cure before applying
pressure to hydraulic components.
Assemble the Long Hydraulic Hoses
To assemble the Long Hydraulic Hoses, you will need from Box 3:
•Two Long Hydraulic Hoses (5570216).
•Four Female Quick-Connect Fittings (5550031).
The following graphic shows the connections to make to the Long Hydraulic Hoses.
To assemble the Long Hydraulic Hoses:
1. Locate both Long Hydraulic Hoses and remove their protective caps.
2. Prepare the Threaded ends with the supplied Thread Sealant.
3. Connect the Female Quick-Connect Fittings to the male threaded connectors on both ends of both
Long Hydraulic Hoses.
To tighten, use one wrench to hold the Male connector in place and a second wrench on the
Female Quick-Connect Fitting to tighten it; make 2-3 full turns using a wrench to securely tighten in
place.
⚠CAUTION Before proceeding, allow 24-hours for the thread sealant to cure
before applying pressure to hydraulic components.

Installing the ORB Elbow Fittings & Attaching the Short Hoses
You need to install one Hydraulic ORB Elbow Fitting (5550103) on each Hydraulic Cylinder.
Tip O-ring Boss (ORB) fittings benefit from 1-2 drops of hydraulic fluid applied to the O-ring
prior to installing the fitting in the Hydraulic Cylinder. The fluid serves to lubricate the
O-ring and helps prevent damage while tightening the fitting.
Tip Raising the QuickJack Frame and putting a Lift Block under it or manually raising the
Platform to a locking position can provide a little bit of extra room, making it easier to
secure the Hydraulic Elbow Fitting.
To install the Hydraulic Elbow Fittings:
1. Remove the shipping plug from the Hydraulic Cylinder Port using a 6 mm Hex Key.
2. Remove the ORB Hydraulic Elbow Fitting from the Parts Bag and apply a few drops of hydraulic oil
to the O-ring, then attach the ORB end into the Hydraulic Cylinder Port.
Important:Do not use Thread Sealant on either end of the Hydraulic Elbow Fitting.
The figure above details the hydraulic connections to make to the bottom of the Hydraulic Cylinder.
Not all components are shown.
3. Position the threaded fitting end as shown above; accessible but not pointed up.
You want the threaded fitting end accessible but not pointed up, as the Short Hydraulic Hose
would then angle up and could impact the underside of a Vehicle.
4. Turn the Nut until fully snug. The ORB end can be hand-tightened in place, then use a
wrench for an additional half turn to ensure it is snug. Do not use Thread Sealant on the
ORB fitting threads.
5. Perform the same process for the Hydraulic Cylinder on the other QuickJack Frame.
