1.10 The hydraulic trolley jack should be supported on a solid, level and horizontal surface which is well illuminated and free of obstructions. Never stand the
hydraulic trolley jack on a surface which may sink.
1.11 Ensure that there are no persons inside the vehicle to be lifted. Switch off the engine and apply the brake. Ensure the vehicle or element to be lifted
against any type of sliding. Use chocks if appropriate (1). Do not enter the vehicle or start the engine whilst it is supported on the jack or appropriate
stands. The hydraulic trolley jack is a lifting device only and should never be used to move the vehicle.
1.12 During raising and lowering of the load, all precautions should be taken to avoid movement of the vehicle load. Traffic may cause the raised vehicle to
rock during roadside use of the hydraulic trolley jack.
1.13 The hydraulic trolley jack should be positioned so as to avoid the need for the user to introduce any part of his/her body underneath the vehicle. Never
work under a raised vehicle without previously supporting it with mechanical stands (3) or other appropriate methods. Never position any part of your
body near the movable elements of the hydraulic trolley jack.
1.14 It is necessary for the operator to be able to observe the lifting device and the load during all movements. In the presence of dangerous conditions, such
as movement of the vehicle, etc, the lifting process must be interrupted.
1.15 Ensure that there are no persons or obstructions underneath the vehicle prior to lowering.
1.16 As an additional safety measure against overload, the hydraulic trolley jack is fitted with an overload valve set at the factory and which should not be
adjusted under any circumstances. If nominal capacity of the hydraulic trolley jack is exceeded the overload valve will stop the lifting operation.
1.17 If the device jams, lift the vehicle with another jack until the first can be cleared.
1.18 Do not use the hydraulic trolley jack in the presence of violent wind, frost, under extreme climates, near powerful magnetic fields or potentially explosive
atmospheres.
1.19 Avoid any contact between the hydraulic trolley jack and food.
1.20 Never use this hydraulic trolley jack to lift persons.
1.21 Never use this hydraulic trolley jack as a handling means (for moving loads).
1.22 Before use on a ship, please refer to the safety instructions in point 1.10 of these instructions.
1.23 The maximum manual forces required for operating the hydraulic trolley jack (unloaded and loaded with the nominal load respectively) do not exceed
the following values:
To start moving an unloaded movable or mobile hydraulic trolley jack : 300 N
To maintain the movement of the unloaded hydraulic trolley jack : 200 N
To start moving a loaded mobile hydraulic trolley jack : 400 N
To maintain the movement of the loaded hydraulic trolley jack : 300 N
To lift the loaded hydraulic trolley jack using the lever of a hand pump: 400 N
To lift the loaded hydraulic trolley jack using a foot pump: 400 N
To lift the hydraulic trolley jack with a rated load ≤ 5 t using a crank: 250 N
NOTE If the loads generated exceed these values, they must be reduced by the intervention of additional persons.
1.24 If oil overflows, please do not use the hydraulic trolley jack, and refer to section 5 of these user instructions or contact your Facom dealer.
1.25 This hydraulic trolley jack is designed for 5000 operating cycles minimum.
1.26 This hydraulic trolley jack complies with the NF EN 1494+A1 standard: Mobile or movable jacks and associated lifting equipment.
