2. INTRODUCTION
Jacking beam lifts load with compressed air. Fully certified and approved to comply with MOT requirements. Features 2-stage mechanical
safety lock and telescopic finger guards to prevent accidental injury. Supplied with two pairs of aluminium support blocks. Beam has
spring loaded flat arms with roller bearings - when unloaded, these support the weight of the beam, allowing the entire unit to run smoothly
along the pit or ramp, but when loaded, they firmly stabilise the unit. Optional hook arms supplied. Wide lift configuration meets MOT
recommendation for lifting on jacking point.

4. PREPARATION
4.1. AIR SUPPLY
4.1.1. You will require an air pressure supply of 90-145psi to get the best performance from the jacking beam.
WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 145psi while operating the jacking beam. Too high an air pressure
and/or unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage or personal injury.
4.1.2. Drain the compressor air tank daily. Water in the line will damage the jacking beam.
4.1.3. Clean the compressor air inlet filter weekly.
4.1.4. Recommended hook-up procedure is shown at (fig 1).
4.1.5. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose diameter
should be 1/4” I.D and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
4.1.6. Keep air hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check air hose for wear before each use, and ensure that all connections are
secure.
4.2. LOCATING THE JACKING BEAM
4.2.1. Lift the jacking beam into place by using the lifting handles (fig 2).
WARNING! The jacking beam is heavy. Seek assistance from another person when locating the jacking beam onto the ramp or
inspection pit runners.
4.2.2. Loosen the roller arm frame fixings, on both sides (fig 2), and extend the roller arm frames (fig 2) outwards, equally each side, to
the correct width to suit the ramp or pit runners. Re-tighten fixings.
4.2.3. Adjust the spring tensioner (fig 2) on all four rollers so the rollers will just support the weight of the jacking beam on it’s own and
allow the jacking beam to travel freely along the ramp or pit.
NOTE: DO NOT put the roller spring under too much tension, this will cause the rollers to jam against the side arm frame. When the
jacking beam is in use the weight of the vehicle will overcome the spring tension, pushing the rollers upwards and allowing the
jacking beam to settle onto the two roller arms.
4.3. USING THE HOOK ARM SUPPORTS
4.3.1. Alternative hook arm supports are supplied for use where the runners on the ramp or pit are of a vertical section profile (fig 5).
4.3.2. Loosen the roller arm frame fixings (fig 2), both sides, and withdraw the roller arm frames (fig 2) from the jacking beam main frame.
4.3.3. Insert the hook arm support frames (fig 5) into the jacking beam main frame equally each side, to the correct width to suit the ramp
or pit runners. Re-tighten fixings.
NOTE: Ensure the hook arm supports are inserted to match the ramp or pit vertical runners (fig 5).

5. OPERATION
Refer to attached parts diagram.
NOTE: Ensure all Safety Instructions in Section 1 are read and understood and carried out before use and save the instructions
and warnings for future reference.
WARNING! Before operating the pump slacken the vent screw/filler cap (fig 3) by turning it counter clockwise.
5.1. SAFETY LOCKING LEVER
5.1.1. As an extra safety feature the jacking beam has two locking positions, controlled by the safety locking lever (fig 3).
5.1.2. When operating the jacking beam the safety locking lever will engage at two predetermined heights to prevent instant collapse,
which may cause personal injury.
5.1.3. To lower the jacking beam beyond these points, raise the jacking beam slightly, by pressing the right hand end of the control lever
(fig 3). Turn the safety locking lever (fig 3) clockwise. Then press the left hand end of the control lever (fig 3), to fully lower the
jacking beam (fig 4).
5.2. TO JACK A VEHICLE
5.2.1. Raise the ramp or pit inspection runners to the desired height (fig 2).
5.2.2. Position the jacking beam as described in section 4.2.
5.2.3. Ensure that the jacking beam is at it’s lowest position (fig 4), and is located under the vehicle manufacturer’s designated jacking
points (fig 6).
NOTE: The majority of lift applications require the use of two saddles.
5.2.4. Determine which saddle pair combinations are best suitable for the application, saddles or adjustable end saddles (fig 2).
NOTE: The end saddles can be adjusted, up or down to suit (fig 2).
5.2.5. Adjust the telescopic arms (fig 2) to line up the saddles (fig 2) with the jacking points of the vehicle (fig 6).
5.2.6. Ensure that the saddles are centred on the jacking points.
5.2.7. Attach the airline hose to the connector (fig 3) on the pneumatic pump (fig 2).
WARNING! Ensure there is sufficient slack in the air hose route from the compressor and that it does not constitute a trip hazard.
5.2.8. Raise the jacking beam in short increments by pressing the right hand end of the control lever (fig 3).
5.2.9. If satisfied with the stability of the set up, continue to jack the vehicle to the required height (fig 6).
5.2.10. At the required height place the vehicle on axle stands (fig 7), not supplied.
WARNING! Ensure the locking lever is engaged (fig 3).
5.2.11. On completion of operations remove the axle stands (fig 7) and store in a safe, clean, dry location.
5.2.12. To lower the jacking beam follow instruction point 5.1.3.
WARNING! When raising or lowering the jacking beam ensure that the air hose does not become trapped between the ramp and
the jacking beam and/or the jacking beam and the vehicle.
5.2.13. When operations are complete remove the airline hose from the pump and secure in a safe, clean, dry location.
5.2.14. With the assistance of another person remove the jacking beam, using the lifting handles (fig 2), from the pit or inspection runners
and store in a safe, clean, dry location.
WARNING! DO NOT raise or lower the ramp or pit inspection runners with the air line still attached to the jacking beam.
6. MAINTENANCE
Replace any labels on the jacking beam should they become unreadable. This applies in particular to any warning or operation
instruction labels. If replacement labels are required, contact your Sealey stockist.
NOTE: Only fully qualified personnel should attempt maintenance or repairs.
6.1. Disconnect the jacking beam from the air supply before changing parts, servicing or performing any maintenance.
6.2. When not in use, the beam should be stored in the lowest position, to minimise corrosion and disconnected from the air supply.
6.3. Keep the beam clean and lubricate all moving parts on a regular basis.
WARNING: DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than a good quality jack oil, such as SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL, as this
may cause serious damage to the jack and will invalidate the warranty!
6.4. To check the fluid level and to top up, fully unscrew the vent screw/filler cap and remove. Place in a secure location. Check the fluid
level either directly or using a dipstick. The level should be just below the vent, top up if necessary. Replace the vent screw/filler cap.
DO NOT overfill as this will affect the smooth operation of the beam.
6.5. Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose parts, or any visible damage to pump, saddles, lifting arms, frame and all
parts including nuts, bolts, pins and other fasteners. If any suspect item is found, remove beam from service and take action to
remedy the problem. DO NOT use the beam if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock load. Inspect and take
appropriate action.
6.6. Periodically check the pump piston and the ram for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.
