the manufacturer's instructions and pertinent warning information.
Owner and/or user is responsible for keeping all warning labels
and instruction manuals legible and intact. Replacement labels and
literature are available from the manufacturer.
Inspection...
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the
transmission jack, checking for leaking hydraulic fluid and
damaged, loose or missing parts. Each jack must be inspected by a
manufacturer's repair facility immediately, if accidentally subjected to an
abnormal load or shock. Any jack which appears to be damaged in any
way, found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED
FROM SERVICE until necessary repairs are made by a manufacturer's
authorized repair facility. It is recommended that an annual inspection of
the jack be made by a manufacturer's authorized repair facility and that any
defective parts, decals or warning labels be replaced with
manufacturer's specified parts.
A list of authorized repair facilities is available from the manufacturer.
Assembly Instructions...
1. Before using jack for the first time, some assembly is
required. Place hydraulic unit in upright position and
bolt legs to base using (4) 1/2" x 1" HHCS and (4) 1/2"
internal tooth lock washers.
2. Assemble each caster to leg using (4) 5/16" x 3/4" hex
bolts and (4) 5/16" nyloc locknuts.
3. Attach fingers to saddle using (4) 7/16" x 11/4" bolts,
(4) 7/16" washers and (4) 7/16" hex nuts.

Open reservoir vent screw 2 full turns to vent.
Check to see if oil level is up to the filler hole. Fill if necessary
with clean hydraulic jack oil. NOTE: jack will not operate
properly unless vented and filled with oil. Sometimes during
shipment and handling air gets into the hydraulic system,
causing poor lifting performance.
Bleeding the pump: With the release lever down, pump
pedal several times to force excess air from the piston area.
It should then be possible to raise the ram with normal foot
pedal action.
Bleeding the ram: With the ram in the low position
remove the hex socket set screw from the top of ram, pump
the foot pedal until fluid comes out. Replace the hex socket set
screw. The jack will then be ready for use.
Operating Instructions...
1. Lifting: Pump pedal to raise saddle to contact load. Position
jack so weight of load will be equally distributed on saddle,
and adjust pitch and tilt controls as necessary. Position corner
support brackets and secure load with load restraint chain.
Warning: Always use the load restraint chain, corner support
brackets, and attachment to stabilize and firmly secure the load
to the saddle. The chain should be used as follows: Place the
chain over the load, pull tight and place into slot on opposite
side of saddle. Tighten wing nut.
2. Lowering: To lower jack – step down on release lever slowly.
Maintenance...
1. Regularly lubricate all moving parts, paying close
attention to the tilt screws and related linkages.
2. Regularly check the oil level in ram. With the saddle
in the lowest position, the oil level should be up to the
filler screw hole. Use SAE 30 hydraulic jack oil,
do not use hydraulic brake fluid.
3. If jack fails to operate — check oil level and/or bleed
air from unit.
