PREVENTIVE 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.
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 and 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 caster
wheels, front axle, elevator arm, handle base pivot bolts, release mechanism and all other bearing surfaces. Worn parts resulting from
inadequate or no lubrication are not eligible for warranty consideration. See page 4 for lubrication instructions.
3. Every jack owner is responsible for keeping the jack labels clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash external surfaces of the jack
but not any moving hydraulic components.
4. Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use the jack if any component is cracked, broken, bent, shows sign of damage or leaks hydraulic
fluid. Do not use the jack if it has loose or missing hardware or components, or is modified in any way. Take corrective action before using the
jack again.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Important: Service jacks are self-contained devices used for lifting, but not sustaining, a partial vehicular load. In accordance with ASME PASE-
2019 Load Sustaining Test: "A load not less than the rated capacity...shall not lower more than 1/8" (3.18mm) in the first minute, nor a total of
.1875" (4.76mm) in 10 minutes." Lowering within this range is considered normal operation and is NOT a warrantable defect.
PROBLEM
1. Unit will not lift rated load.
2. Unit will not sustain rated load or feels "spongy" under rated load.
3. Unit will not lift to full height.
4. Unit will not lower completely.
5. Handle tends to raise up while the unit is under rated load.
6. Unit still does not operate.
