OPERATING MANUAL & PARTS LIST FOR 791-2300 B, 791-2320 B
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
This is the safety alert symbol used for the PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE section of this manual to alert you to potential
personal injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT: The number one cause of jack failure in air/hydraulic jacks is dirt and moisture in the air motor and/or hydraulic system.
The shop air supply should be equipped with water and dirt filter traps that should be emptied or cleaned according to a monthly
maintenance schedule. An in line oil lubricator will extend the life of air/hydraulic jacks. Inoperable jacks caused by poorly equipped or
maintained shop air systems are not eligible for warranty consideration. Contaminants can also enter the air/hydraulic system when
the shop air line is disconnected from the jack air line and the line is dropped on the floor. Contaminants in the air couplers, once reconnected,
will be driven into the system.
1. Always store the jack in a well protected area where it will not be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any
other harmful elements. The jack must be cleaned of water, snow, sand or grit before using.
2. The jack must be lubricated periodically in order to prevent premature wearing of parts. A general purpose grease must be applied to the
threads on the extension screw. Do not lubricate any portion of the lift saddle and make sure the saddle is free from grease, any kind of
lubricant, or debris before using the jack.
3. It should not be necessary to refill or top off the reservoir with hydraulic fluid unless there is an external leak. An external leak requires
immediate repair which must be performed in a dirt-free environment by qualified hydraulic repair personnel who are familiar with this
equipment. Authorized Service Centers are recommended. IMPoRTANT: In order to prevent seal damage and jack failure, never use
alcohol, hydraulic brake fluid, or transmission oil in the jack. Use NAPA hydraulic Jack Oil #765-1541.
4. Every jack owner is responsible for keeping the jack label clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash external surfaces of the
jack but not any moving hydraulic components.
5. Do not attempt to make any hydraulic repairs unless you are a qualified hydraulic repair person that is familiar with this equipment.
MAINTENANCE
Important: Use only a good grade hydraulic jack oil. Avoid mixing different types of fluid and NEVER use brake fluid, turbine oil,
transmission fluid, motor oil or glycerin. Improper fluid can cause premature failure of the jack and the potential for sudden and immediate
loss of load.
Adding Oil: With saddle fully lowered and pump position fully depressed, set jack in its upright, level position. Remove oil filler plug. Fill until
oil is level with the filler plug hole, re-install oil filler plug.
