4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4.1. General jacking.
Refer to figs.1 & 2
NOTE: Locking lever must be in the upper (jacking)
position before handle can be pumped. Ensure that it is left
in the locked position afterwards.
pWARNING! Before lifting, ensure Section 1 safety
instructions are strictly followed.
4.1.1. Prepare vehicle as described in safety instructions ensuring
the ground on which jack is to stand is level and solid (not
tarmacadam). We recommend concrete.
4.1.2. Position the jack saddle under the vehicle manufacturer’s
recommended lifting point (see vehicle handbook).
4.2.Raising the jack.
NOTE: The jack saddle may be raised quickly up to the
load using the foot pedal.
DO NOT attempt to raise the load with the foot pedal.
4.2.1. Turn the release valve handle clockwise until resistance is
felt to close the release valve. DO NOTovertighten.
4.2.2. Place the jack directly under the object to be lifted. Make
sure the saddle accepts weight firmly and centrally. Check
positioning under slight load to confirm jack or load will not
slip, or move suddenly.
4.2.3. Raise jack by moving locking lever to the jacking position
pump handle until the desired height is reached. After
lifting, secure and transfer load to axle stands or other
appropriate means. Do not use jack as the only means of
support.
4.3 Lowering the jack.
4.3.1. Slowly turn the release valve handle anticlockwise. Speed
of descent is controlled by amount release valve is turned.
pSAFETY WARNING! Always lower in a slow and controlled
manner and ensure that there are no persons or obstacles
beneath the vehicle, or in the path of descent.
3Ensure the jack is in sound condition and good working order.
Take action for immediate repair or replacement of damaged parts.
Use genuine parts only. The use of unauthorised parts may be
dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
3Locate the jack in a suitable, well lit work area.
3Keep work area clean and tidy and free from unrelated materials.
3Use jack on level and solid ground, preferably concrete. Avoid
tarmacadam as jack may sink in.
3Place wedges under wheels of vehicle (but ensure wheels of jack
can move freely).
3Ensure the vehicle handbrake is engaged, engine is switched off
and transmission is in 1st or reverse gear (“PARK” if automatic).
3Ensure minimum distance of 0.5m between vehicle and static
objects such as doors, walls, etc., to allow for vehicle tilting.
3Ensure there are no passengers in the vehicle.
3Ensure all non-essential persons keep a safe distance whilst the
jack is in use.
3Only place jack under those lifting points recommended by vehicle
manufacturer (see vehicle handbook).
3Check the lifting point is stable and centred on the jack saddle.
3Ensure the jack wheels are free to move and that there are no
obstructions.
pDANGER: Use the jack for lifting only, NOT for supporting the
lifted load.
3Use suitable capacity axle stands under the vehicle before
proceeding with any task.
3Ensure there are no persons or obstructions beneath the vehicle
before lowering.
3Use a qualified person to maintain or repair the jack hydraulic system.
7DO NOT operate the jack if damaged.
7DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the jack.
7DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the jack.

3.2 Before initial operation, purge any air from the system by
fully opening the pump release valve (turn release valve
handle anticlockwise). Then, while holding the saddle
down, pump the handle rapidly several times.
3.3. Place a few drops of hydraulic jack oil on the pump piston
and pump the handle several times to distribute the oil.
Thoroughly lubricate all moving parts.

IMPORTANT: Only fully qualified personnel should
attempt maintenance or repair.
5.1. When the jack is not in use, the ram should be in the lowest
position to minimise corrosion.
5.2. Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts with oil on
a regular basis.
5.3. Every 3 months grease the lifting arm pivot pin and the rear
castors via the grease nipples provided.
5.4. The pump and cylinder form a closed hydraulic system and
refilling with oil is only necessary in exceptional cases. To
check oil level:
1) Place jack on a level surface with the saddle fully lowered.
2) Remove the top cover by pulling up.
3) The oil is topped up via the rubber bung which is situated
on top of the cylinder nearest to the ram end of the pump.
NOTE: Use a good quality jack oil, such as
SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL.
pWARNING: DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other
than hydraulic jack fluid as this will cause serious
damage to the jack and will invalidate the warranty!
5.5. Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose
parts, or any visible damage to ram, pump, saddle, lifting
arm, frame and all parts including nuts, bolts, pins and other
fasteners. If any suspect item is found, remove jack from
service and take the necessary action to remedy the problem.
DO NOT use the jack if it is believed to have been subjected
to abnormal or shock loading. Inspect and take appropriate
action.
5.6. Periodically check the pump piston and the ram for signs of
corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean cloth and jack oil.
