ASSEMBLY, OPERATION, PREVENTITIVE MAINTENANCE
1. FEATURES
This 2-Stage telescopic hydraulic TradeQuip "Made for the Trade" Transmission Lifter offers a wide range of versatility
designed to help increase workshop productivity. Designed for use with passenger car transmissions, the universal mounting
cradle provides a wide fore and aft tilt range. A wide base is enhanced by four heavy-duty steel swivel castors and both a ring
handle and a pull bar for easier manoeuvring throughout the workshop. Has a manual operated hydraulic system with smooth
hydraulic lift and descent. The foot operated pump and release valve keep the mechanic’s hands free during use. The height
adjustability of this telescoping transmission lifter makes it great for any transmission installation or removal.
2. ASSEMBLY
Unpack the product and check contents with the exploded drawing and the parts list. Should there be any damaged or missing
parts, contact your place of purchase immediately.
1. Locate the two leg assemblies. Assemble them to each other, and to the base of the cylinder set using the Bolts, Spring
Washers and Nuts provided. Tighten all fasteners securely.
2. Locate the four swivel castor assemblies, four Nuts and four Spring Washers. Attach a castor to each of the legs in the
leg sets using a Spring Washer and Nut. Tighten securely.
3. Locate the saddle set. Position the saddle on top of the ram. Install nut to secure the saddle in place. Tighten securely.
4. Locate the two handles. Position the handles around the reservoir. Secure in place with the four Bolts, Spring Washers
and Nuts provided. Tighten securely.
3. BEFORE USE
Prior to use conduct a visual inspection checking for abnormal conditions, such as cracked welds, leaks, and damaged, loose,
or missing parts.
Bleed Hydraulic Transmission Lifter:
• It is recommended, as a regular maintenance requirement, to bleed your hydraulic transmission lifter weekly. Not purging
your hydraulic transmission lifter will result in poor performance of the unit as well as reduced life on seals. Please consult
your user manual.
• If it is a brand new hydraulic transmission lifter, the hydraulic foot pump may not provide a full stroke or the ram feels
spongy, there is excess air trapped in hydraulic system. You will need to bleed the hydraulic system.
How to bleed your hydraulic transmission lifter:
• When equipment efficiency drops, users should bleed air from hydraulic system.
• Bleed the hydraulic system to eliminate any air in the system by pushing down the release foot pedal (13) down and
pumping the lift foot pedal (14) 15-20 times.
• With the transmission lifter in the lowest position remove the air vent screw to check the hydraulic oil level. If it is not
adequate, add high quality hydraulic jack oil as necessary. Insert and tighten the air vent screw. Then bleed away air from
the hydraulic system.
• Leave the transmission lifter for one hour to allow the oil to settle before repeating bleed.
• To ensure best performance and longer equipment life replace the complete hydraulic oil at least once a year.
• With the transmission lifter in its lowest position remove the air vent screw, lay the transmission lifter on its side and
drain the oil into a suitable container.
• Ensure that no dirt gets into the system.
• Set the transmission lifter in its level upright position, fill with approved hydraulic jack oil.
• Replace the air vent screw and bleed away air from hydraulic system as described above.
• It is recommended that an annual inspection be conducted by a qualified technician.

4. OPERATION
Warning: Vehicle must be properly and adequately supported before commencing work with this telescopic
transmission lifter.
1. The telescopic transmission lifter may easily be moved by gripping the ring handle and rolling it on its castors. Locate the
transmission lifter under the transmission. Repeatedly press the pump pedal with your foot to raise the ram until the
saddle set almost contacts the underside of the transmission. Adjust the position of the transmission lifter so that it is
centred directly under the centre of gravity of the transmission.
2. It is important for your safety to make a good contact point between the saddle set and the transmission. This will assure
that the transmission is properly supported and balanced once removed from the vehicle and resting on the transmission
lifter. Using the grips, adjust the angle of the saddle so that it is best aligned with the transmission. Press the pump pedal
again until the saddle contacts and will support the weight of the transmission.
3. The positions of the chains and hook screws can be adjusted using the wing nuts & bolts. Secure the transmission to the
saddle by passing the chains over the top of the transmission and securing them to the hook screws. Tighten the chains
by tightening the wing nuts. Double check that the transmission is safely and securely attached to the saddle set.
4. Remove the bolts and fittings attaching the transmission to the vehicle and separate the transmission, as recommended
by the vehicle service manual.
5. Lower the transmission slightly by briefly pressing the pedal release. Recheck the transmission to ensure that it is securely
and safely attached to the saddle. Make any necessary adjustments. When it is safe to do so, lower the transmission all
the way by depressing the pedal release.
6. Using the handle, and stabilising the transmission on the transmission lifter, roll the transmission out from under the
vehicle to the work location where it will be repaired. It is ideal to have assistance when you lower and move the
transmission.
Warning: The use of this transmission lifter is limited to the removal, installation, and transportation in the lowest
position of transmissions and differentials. It is not designed to store transmissions or other parts. No transmission
or other part should be left on the transmission lifter for an extended period of time.
5. INSPECTION
Prior to each use conduct a visual inspection checking for abnormal conditions, such as cracked welds, leaks, and damaged,
loose, or missing parts.
6. STORAGE
This transmission lifter should always be stored in a dry location on a level surface.
7. MAINTENANCE
Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Non-authorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate
the warranty.
1. The hydraulic system is closed and will normally require no maintenance.
2. The mechanical parts of the transmission lifter, such as the pedal and release should be occasionally lubricated with heavy
oil or grease.
3. Protect the transmission lifter cylinder from dirt or grit, when in the raised position. If it becomes dirty, wipe off with a
clean cloth.
4. Maintain and store the transmission lifter in a protected environment. Do not expose to rain or excess moisture.
5. Clean the transmission lifter with clean water and a damp cloth. Do not use a pressure washer near the seal, piston or
valves. Lubricate following cleaning.
6. If the transmission lifter allows a load to slowly lower on its own, you may have insufficient lifter oil or worn/damaged
seals.
• Check oil level. If the oil level is OK, contact an authorised repair facility.
• Damaged seals may be caused by overloading, or exposure to harmful condition or inappropriate use of a pressure
washer.
Note: If the transmission lifter can be pumped up to its highest position, it indicates that there is enough oil. If the lifter
fades from this position, it indicates that the problem is likely the seals.
7. To check the oil level, be sure the lifter is in its lowest position. Remove the oil filler plug. The oil level should be at the
bottom of the filler plug hole. You can visually see the oil, or test with your finger. If the oil level is low, add good quality
hydraulic lifter oil ISO VG32. Do not use brake fluid as brake fluid will damage the seals.
