WARNING INFORMATION
• Study, understand, and follow all instructions before operating this device.
• Do not exceed 2-ton rated capacity for the engine crane.
• Use only on hard, level surfaces.
• Before moving, lower the load to the lowest possible point.
• Use only sling or chains with a rated capacity greater than the weight of the load being lifted.
• Do not allow load to swing or drop violently while lowering or moving.
• Do not make any alterations or modifications to engine crane.
• Do not adjust safety valve.
• Properly extend leg extensions and secure boom in proper setting before use.
• Follow capacities marked on boom; capacity decreases as boom lengthens.
• Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and heavy-duty work gloves during use.
• Verify replacement jack has same rating, mounting points, and maximum length.
• Inspect before every use; do not use if parts loose or damaged.
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered work areas invite accidents.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating engine crane. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
• Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a jack. Do not use

This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death. Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
section at beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set-up or use of this product.
NOTE: Once assembly is fully completed, tighten ALL bolts before initial operation
LIFTING AND LOWERING
1. Locate the hole on the boom with a weight limit higher than the weight you
will be lifting. For example: Locate the 1 TON hole on the boom for a load
that is under one ton.
2. Adjust the boom extension so the hole furthest from the hook-end aligns
with the chosen hole on the boom. Secure into place by inserting the bolt
through all aligned holes and tightening in place with the washer and nut.
WARNING: Do not stand under an object that is being lifted by the engine crane.
Be aware of the possibility of a load slipping off the hook and chain. An item that
falls from the crane can cause serious injury.
3. Move the crane so that the hook and chain is directly above the item to be lifted.
4. Securely attach the hook and chain to the item.
5. To raise the boom, turn the jack's release valve fully clockwise (right).
Insert the handle into the jack and pump (up and down) repeatedly until
the item has been lifted to the desired height.
WARNING! Be sure to fully tighten the release valve or else the jack
may lower or may not be able to reach the full height.
WARNING! DO NOT MOVE THE CRANE WHEN UNDER LOAD.
The casters are not designed to be rolled when the crane is lifting
heavy objects.
6. To lower the crane, SLOWLY turn the jack's release valve counterclockwise (left).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

BLEEDING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT! Before first use, check for proper hydraulic oil level and thoroughly test the equipment.
If it does not work properly, bleed excess air from its hydraulic system as follows:
1. Open release valve and lower jack completely.
2. Remove oil plug and fill with hydraulic oil (sold separately) to full level.
3. Apply downward pressure to the boom and pump the jack handle quickly several times.
4. Check the oil fill hole and, if necessary, top off the oil fill hole with hydraulic oil.
5. Replace the oil plug and close the release valve.
6. Test the equipment several times for proper operation before attempting to lift a load. If, after bleeding, the
equipment still does not appear to be working properly, do not use the equipment until it has been repaired
by a qualified service technician.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
NOTE: Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician.
1. Before each use, inspect the general condition of the jack. Check for broken, cracked, or bent parts,
loose or missing parts, and any condition that may affect the proper operation of the product. If a
problem occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.
2. Before each use, thoroughly test the jack for proper operation prior to its actual use. If the jack
appears not to be working properly, follow bleeding instructions.
3. Change the hydraulic oil at least once every three years:
A. With the jack fully lowered, remove the oil filler plug on the side of the housing.
B. Tip the jack to allow the old hydraulic oil to drain out of the housing completely,
and dispose of the old hydraulic oil in accordance with local regulations.
C. With the jack upright, completely fill the housing with a high quality hydraulic oil (not included)
until the oil just begins to run out of the oil fill hole.
D. Open the valve release screw and pump the handle to bleed air from the system.
E. Reinstall the oil filler plug.
4. Wipe dry with a clean cloth. Then, store the jack in a safe, dry location out of reach of children
and other non-authorized people.
