OWNER'S MANUAL
JACK STAND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Install the support column in the stand where the support column teeth are facing toward the stand's locking pawl.
2.
Raise the stand's locking handle to allow the column to go to its lowest position.
3.
In order to prevent removal of the support column from the stand, use a hammer and flat end punch to hammer the jack's tab in
toward the column but not touching the column. Some stands are equipped with a bolt instead of a tab. In this case the bolt can
be threaded in toward the column until the bolt bottoms out.
FLOOR SERVICE JACK SETUP
PLEASE REFER TO THE EXPLODED VIEW DRAWING IN THIS MANUAL IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY PARTS.
1.
Depress the spring button at the bottom of the reference number (#18) handle half and insert it in the reference number (#21) lower
handle half until the spring button engages the hole in the lower handle half.
2.
Remove the reference number (#15) handle set screw from the reference number (#16) handle yoke. Install the assembled handle into
the reference number (#16) handle yoke making sure the bottom of the handle engages the release valve u-joint reference number (#22).
3.
Install the reference number (#15) handle set screw in the reference number (#16) handle yoke and tighten the screw to secure the
handle in the yoke.
4.
Air may become trapped in the hydraulic system during shipping and handling. Trapped air will affect the pumping performance of the
jack. If this occurs, follow the air purging procedure below:
a) Remove the four screws that secure the cover plate (A) to the jack frame (B) so the oil fill screw (#21) can be removed from the
hydraulic power unit reservoir tube (#38).
b) With the lift arm (C) in its down position, look inside the oil fill screw hole. You should be able to see the top of the power unit's
cylinder (#29). The hydraulic fluid level should be no higher than the top of the cylinder. Correct the fluid level if it
is not at the proper height.
c) Pump the jack against a load that is at least 500 lbs. (225 Kgs). After the load is raised, slightly turn the pump handle in a
counter clockwise rotation so the load is very slowly lowered. While the lift arm is lowering, quickly pump the handle 5 or
6 full incremental pump strokes. After pumping, lower the lift arm to its full rest position.
d) Install the oil fill screw (#21). Rotate the handle in a clockwise rotation until tight and pump the lift arm to maximum height.
If the pumping condition has improved, repeat steps "a" through "d" until all of the air has been purged from the system.
e) Install the cover plate (A) with the four screws.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
1.
Make sure the work floor is clean and free of debris and obstacles.
2.
Chock the vehicle's tires that will not be lifted. Make sure the emergency brake is on and the vehicle's transmission is either in the park
mode or gear if a manual transmission.
3.
Raise the vehicle to a safe working height and make sure the jack and vehicle setup are stable before positioning the jack stands.
DO NOT CRAWL UNDER THE VEHICLE TO POSITION OR REMOVE STANDS.
4.
Position the jack stands right below the areas of the vehicle support points as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
5.
Lift the support columns as close to the vehicle as possible without the saddles on the columns coming in contact with the vehicle. Make
sure the support columns' teeth are engaged with the locking pawls.
FLOOR SERVICE JACK OPERATION:
1.
To raise load: Turn the handle in a clockwise direction until tight. Position the jack under the load. Proceed to pump the handle in order
to raise the lift arm to the load. As the saddle at the end of the lift arm gets closer to the load, reposition the jack so the saddle will
contact the load firmly and the load is centered on the saddle. Make sure the saddle is correctly positioned. Raise the load to the desired
work height. Place jack stands of appropriate capacity at the vehicle manufacturers's recommended support areas that provide stable
support for the raised vehicle. DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING OR REMOVING THE
JACK STANDS! Once jack stands are positioned and stand columns raised to proper heights, turn the handle VERY SLOWLY. Lower the
load to rest on the jack stands. Inspect the relationship between the jack stands and load to make sure the setup is stable and safe. If
the setup is not stable or safe, follow the preceding steps until corrected.
2.
To lower load: Follow the procedures mentioned in "To raise load" section of the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS in order to raise the load
off the jack stands. Once the load has cleared the jack stands, remove the stands from under the load and away from the work area. Turn
handle very slowly in a counterclockwise direction until the load is completely lowered to the ground. Once the jack's lifting saddle has
cleared the load, remove the jack from under the load. CAUTION: Keep hands and feet away from the hinge mechanism of the jack.
