If Saddle does not lower and the valve is open, there is too much Hydraulic fluid:
1. Unscrew Oil Plug.
2. Push Saddle and Handle down at the same time.
3. Wipe off any oil that spills.
4. Replace Oil Plug and tighten with Wrench.
If more than eight strokes of Handle is needed to raise Saddle, there may be air in the
system. In that case, follow the Bleed/Purge Instructions, making sure to use full strokes.
If the Saddle does not go up at all during full strokes and valve is closed, there may be
excessive air or insufficient hydraulic fluid in the system:
1. Place Jack on a flat, level surface and turn Handle clockwise as far as it goes.
2. Turn Breathing Screw clockwise fully.
3. Turn Handle clockwise fully.
4. Repeatedly pump Handle. Continue as long as air comes out or until Saddle begins to rise.
Once Saddle begins to rise, stop pumping and follow Bleed/Purge Instructions. If Saddle
does not begin to rise and air does not seem to be purging or bleeding, follow Refilling In-
structions.
If Handle will not go down:
1. Make sure load is not exceeding 3,000 lb. capacity.
2. Make sure Saddle is not already at maximum height. If it is, lower and reposition under
different part of vehicle.
3. If Jack functions properly and you are unable to push down and apply the required 150 lbs.
of force needed to operate Jack, seek the help of another person for assistance.
Other Maintenance Tips
1. Keep the Jack clean and dry.
2. Periodically lubricate the caster wheels with high quality grease.
3. Periodically dismantle and lubricate the Handle assembly and all lift arm linkages.
4. Watch for hydraulic oil leaks. Fill oil if necessary. If leaks persist, contact an
authorized service technician.
5. If the Jack does not lift to satisfaction, take it to an authorized service technician.
