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’s 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’s 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 5900959 — Rev. L1 — December 2020
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 (R2015) Safety Requirements for Installation and Service of
Automotive Lifts for more information about safely installing your QuickJack.
Important Safety Instructions
When using your garage equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot parts; you could be burned. Always use care with the equipment.
3. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or if the equipment has been dropped or
damaged — until it has been examined by a qualified service person.
4. Do not let a cord hang over the edge of a table, bench, or counter or come in contact with hot
manifolds or moving fan blades.
5. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating equal to or greater than that of the

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.
•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 [e-mail].
•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 wear OSHA-approved (publication 3151) personal protective equipment at all times
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.
•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.

QuickJack™ Portable Car Jack 7P/N 5900959 — Rev. L1 — December 2020
•Floor surface must be dry, flat, and have a minimum compressive strength of 500 PSI.
•Avoid using an extension cord; they can overheat. If you must use an extension cord, make sure it
is No. 14 AWG minimum.
•Take care locating the electrical cable and Hydraulic Hoses; you do not want them driven over or
stepped 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.

QuickJack™ Portable Car Jack 8P/N 5900959 — Rev. L1 — December 2020
Components
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.
Your QuickJack has a left Frame and a right Frame. If you put your QuickJack Frames next to each
other with both Lock Bars on the outside and the end with the sticker away from you, then the
Frame on your left is the “left” Frame and the Frame on your right is the “right” Frame.
These are the orientations noted on the boxes the QuickJack Frames are shipped in and they are
also shown in the drawing in Unpacking.
•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 hit 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.
•One Power Unit (includes Pendant Control). Not shown. Provides power to the QuickJack
Frames. There are five Power Units available: 110 VAC, 220/240 VAC, CE-approved 220 VAC, 12
VDC, and CE-approved 12 VDC. Note that the Hydraulic Fluid reservoir of your Power Unit is
shipped
without Hydraulic Fluid; you must fill it with approved fluid before using your
QuickJack.
•Two Short Hydraulic Hoses. Connect on 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 on 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.
•Parts Bag. Holds Hydraulic Fittings used during setup.
•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—at either the First Locking Position or the Top Locking Position.
Only leave the QuickJack either fully lowered or engaged on one of the two locking positions.
Before using the QuickJack, check to make sure both Lock Bars are moving freely and are in their
tracks. If the Lock Bars get stuck in an up position or they come out of their tracks, the QuickJack
will not work correctly, which is a safety hazard.

QuickJack™ Portable Car Jack 9P/N 5900959 — Rev. L1 — December 2020
•Hydraulic Cylinder and Air Cylinder. Each QuickJack Frame has one Hydraulic Cylinder and
one Air Cylinder. The Hydraulic Cylinder is welded to the Frame and the Air Cylinder is welded to
the Hydraulic Cylinder. The Hydraulic Cylinder receives Hydraulic Fluid from the Power Unit, which
is used to move the Frames up and down. The Air Cylinder acts like an air spring, which means
they assist in lowering the Frames. The Hydraulic Cylinders need Hydraulic Fluid to operate, the Air
Cylinders need to be pressurized from 40 to 50 PSI (2.75 to 3.4 BAR); do not exceed 50 PSI.
•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.
⚠WARNING Be very careful when putting down the Frame; you do not want to crush your
fingers.

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 Vehicle under the weight capacity of your
QuickJack and do the QuickJack’s Lift Blocks hit 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: How many locking positions does my QuickJack have?
A: Two. We call them the First Locking Position and the Top Locking Position.
Q: Do the QuickJack Frames have a “left” and “right” orientation?
A: Yes. If you put your QuickJack Frames next to each other with both Lock Bars on the outside and
the end with the sticker away from you, then the Frame on the left is the “left” Frame and the Frame on
the right is the “right” Frame. These are the orientations noted on the QuickJack shipping boxes.
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 one of its two locking positions, 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 no net rise (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 force to raise a Vehicle.
Q: What is “longitudinal shift”?
A: When you raise the QuickJack, the geometry of the Frames causes the Platforms to move up at a
sllight angle instead of straight up. The difference between where the Platforms are while on the
ground and where they end up when raised is longitudinal shift. Longitudinal shift for the QuickJack
is from 11 to 14 inches in the direction of the sticker end of the Frames, depending on model. It
does not matter which way the Vehicle is facing, longitudinal shift is always the same direction.

Setup
This section describes how to set up your QuickJack.
⚠WARNING Use only the factory-supplied parts that came with your QuickJack . If
you use parts from a different source, you void your warranty and compromise the
safety of everyone who sets up or uses the QuickJack. If you are missing parts, visit
quickjack.com/support or contact QuickJack Technical Support at
[email protected], [phone], or [phone].
Your QuickJack is supplied with setup instructions that meet the criteria set by the American National
Standard “Automotive Lifts – Safety Requirements for Construction, Testing, and Validation” ANSI/ALI
ALCTV-2011.
Setup Safety Rules
When setting up a QuickJack, your safety depends on proper training and thoughtful operation.
⚠WARNING Always use proper tools, such as a forklift or shop crane, to move heavy
components. Do not install this equipment without reading and understanding this
manual and the labels on the unit.
BendPak recommends referring to the ANSI/ALI ALIS Standard (R2015) Safety Requirements for
Installation and Service for more information about safely setting up, using, and servicing your
QuickJack.
Pay attention at all times during setup. Use appropriate tools and equipment. Stay clear of
moving parts. Keep hands and fingers away from pinch points.
⚠WARNING You must wear protective equipment at all times during setup: leather gloves, steel-
toed work boots, eye protection, back belts, and hearing protection.
Tools
You need the following tools to set up your QuickJack:
•SAE / metric hex key set
•SAE / metric socket and ratchet set
•SAE / metric wrench set or an adjustable wrench
•Screwdriver set
Tip Keep a rag handy during setup; Hydraulic Fluid sometimes leaks.
At some point during setup, you will need to provide some air pressure (to 50 PSI, for the Air Cylinder)
and 2.1 quarts / 2 liters of Hydraulic Fluid.

Selecting a Site
Keep the following in mind when selecting a site for your QuickJack:
•Enough space. Make sure there is adequate space for the QuickJack and the Vehicles you will
be raising.
•Longitudinal Shift. When you raise your QuickJack with a Vehicle on it, the geometry of the
Frames moves the Vehicle up at a slight angle, towards the sticker end of the QuickJack; refer to
the graphic in Unpacking. Radial shift is always towards the sticker end of the QuickJack, no
matter which way the Vehicle is facing.
Radial shift can be anywhere from 11 to 15 inches, depending on QuickJack model.
Make sure to account for radial shift when choosing where to set up and use your QuickJack.
•No overhead obstructions. Make sure your site is free of overhead obstructions such as
heaters, building supports, electrical lines, low-hanging lights, and so on. We recommend leaving
at least three feet above the top of the Vehicle when raised on the QuickJack.
•Level floor. Inspect the floor and check for defective concrete or asphalt. Make sure the floor is
dry, level, and has a minimum compressive strength of 500 psi.
•Power in the right place. You will need to have a power source for your Power Unit. If you are
using 110 or 220/240 VAC power, the Power Unit must be close enough to the power source for
the cord to reach.
If you are using a 12 VDC power source, the Power Unit must be close enough to the power
source for your connection method to reach. For example, if you are powering your 12 VDC Power
Unit with a Vehicle Battery, the Power Unit must be within reach of the Jumper Cables attached to
the Vehicle’s Battery.
⚠WARNING Do not set up or use a QuickJack on a surface with 3° of slope or more, as this
could lead to personal injury or death if a raised Vehicle were to fall off the
QuickJack. The greater the slope, the more likely the Vehicle will become
unbalanced and fall off the QuickJack, which could damage the Vehicle and injure
anyone in the area.

Unpacking
Open the boxes and arrange the QuickJack components where you will be setting them up.
⚠WARNING Your two QuickJack Frames are similar, but they are not interchangeable. Always
line up your Frames as parallel to each other as the Lifting Points will allow, with the
Lock Bars on the outside , as shown below.
⚠CAUTION Be sure to route the Short Hydraulic Hoses under the QuickJack Frames. If they
are routed over the QuickJack Frames, the QuickJack will not work correctly and
the Hoses could be damaged.

QuickJack Box 3 (and Parts Bag)
Many of the items you will be using during initial setup come in Box 3; the Parts Bag is included
in Box 3.
The QuickJack Box 3 includes:
•A Power Unit (Voltage of your choice, decided at time of purchase)
•Four Medium Rubber Lift Blocks and Four Tall Rubber Lift Blocks
•Two Short Hydraulic Hoses and Two Long Hydraulic Hoses
The QuickJack Parts Bag includes:
•Four Female Quick-Connect Fittings
•Two Male Quick-Connect Fittings
•Two Power Unit Quick-Connect Fittings
•Two Hydraulic Elbow Fittings
•Bottle of Liquid Thread Sealant
Air and Hydraulic Cylinders
Each QuickJack Frame has one Air Cylinder and one Hydraulic Cylinder.
The components of the Air and Hydraulic Cylinders are:
•Air Inflation Valve. Used to add air pressure to the Air Cylinder. Comes with the appropriate
valve (also called a Schrader® valve) installed.
•Hydraulic Cylinder Connector. Hydraulic Elbow Fitting attaches here. Use a 6 mm hex key to
remove the shipping plug before installing the Hydraulic Elbow Fitting.
•Bleeder Screw. Used to “bleed” the air from the Hydraulic System, if necessary. Refer to
Troubleshooting for more information.

Installing the Hydraulic Elbow Fittings
You need to install one Hydraulic Elbow Fitting (P/N 5550103) on each Hydraulic Cylinder.
To install a Hydraulic Elbow Fitting:
1. Remove the shipping plug from the Hydraulic Cylinder Port using a 6 mm hex key.
2. Get an Hydraulic Elbow Fitting from the Parts Bag; screw the O-ring fitting end into the Hydraulic
Cylinder Port.
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.
Important: Do
not use Thread Sealant on either end of the Hydraulic Elbow Fitting.
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 possibly impact the underside of a Vehicle.
4. Tighten the fitting nut to 11 to 12 lbf-ft / 14 to 16 N-m.
5. Perform the same process for the Hydraulic Cylinder on the other QuickJack Frame.
