PREOPERATION PROCEDURES
Before putting a new Track Jack into initial service,
or after an extended period of being unused, perform
a visual inspection for bent, broken, cracked, missing
or worn components. Ensure the hydraulic uid and
lubricant level is correct. Fully extend and retract the
jack without a load to ensure that the jack is primed and
operating properly.
RAISING A LOAD
1. Before using the Track Jack, make sure that it is set
on a rm surface capable of bearing the intended
load.
2. Make sure the release valve is closed, by turning it
clockwise until it is hand tight.
3. Pump the handle by hand until the toe lift or head
lift plate rises to and engages the load.
4. Insert the jack handle fully into the handle socket
and pump until the desired lift has been obtained.
5. Remove the jack handle from the handle socket once
the load reaches its desired height.
6. Crib or block the load to prevent accidently drop-
ping the load.
LOWERING A LOAD
1. Make sure all personnel are clear of the load.
2. Remove cribbing or blocking if used.
3. Open the release valve by turning it counterclock-
wise (open slowly).
4. When the load reaches the desired level, close the
release valve by turning it clockwise until it is hand
tight.
HORIZONTAL OPERATION
The Track Jack can also be used horizontally to separate
two items, as long as it is placed with the handle socket
facing upwards.
1. Place the Track Jack base against the largest, heavi-
est, or otherwise least moveable of the two items.
2. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise until
hand tight.
3. Pump the handle socket by hand until the lifting toe
or the head of the lifting toe rmly engages the more
moveable of the two items.
MAKE SURE THAT ALL PERSONNEL ARE CLEAR
OF THE LOAD BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RAISE
OR LOWER THE JACK. SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH COULD RESULT FROM THE IMPROPER
USE OF THIS TOOL.
Use only the recommended length jack
handle. DO NOT use longer handles or
extenders.
WARNING
DANGER
Overtightening the release valve can damage
the valve seat. DO NOT use pliers or wrenches
to tighten the release valve.
DANGER
Make certain that the lifting toe is fully
engaged on the load, and the entire jack is
stable, before proceeding further.
DANGER
Lowering speed is controlled by opening the
release valve more or less. DO NOT open the
valve more than two full turns.
