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: Any jack found to be defective as a result of worn parts due to lack of lubrication, or hydraulic
system contaminated with water, rust and/or foreign materials is not eligible for warranty consideration.
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, grit, oil, grease or other
foreign matter 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 all pivot points with exception to hydraulic components. 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 hydraulic jack oil.
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.
