Locate the jack in a suitable, well lit work area.
Keep work area clean and tidy and free from unrelated materials.
Use jack on level and solid ground, preferably concrete. Avoid tarmacadam as jack may sink in.
Place chocks under wheels of vehicle (but ensure wheels of jack can move freely).
Ensure the vehicle handbrake is engaged, engine is switched off and transmission is in gear (“PARK” if automatic).
Ensure minimum distance of 0.5m between vehicle and static objects such as doors, walls etc. to allow for vehicle tilting.
Ensure there are no passengers in the vehicle.

Only place jack under those lifting points recommended by vehicle manufacturer (refer to vehicle handbook).
Check the lifting point is stable and centred on the jack saddle.
Ensure the jack wheels are free to move and that there are no obstructions.
DANGER: Use the jack for lifting only, NOT for supporting the lifted load.

PREPARATION

ASSEMBLY

WARNING : It requires two persons to lift the jack from its packing case.

Fit the handle part-way into the handle socket to hold the socket down. Remove the transit lock pin by pushing out with a long screwdriver inserted through the upper locking socket and then pulling the pin free, (fig.1). When freed, raise the handle assembly to the vertical position. Push the handle assembly into the handle socket fully so that the locking position control rod passes through the bracket and locates into the upper handle locking position (fig.1). Locate the release valve square drive into the drive socket. Secure with the handle pinch bolt (fig.1); test the operation and function of the release valve control knob before use.

BLEEDING
Before using the jack for the first time, bleed the hydraulic circuit in order to eliminate any air from the system. To do this, open the release valve by rotating the release valve control knob anticlockwise (fig.2). Pump the foot pedal through its full travel 20 times. Rotate the release valve control knob clockwise

OPERATION

PREPARATION

WARNING! Before lifting, ensure that you have read, understood and apply Section 1 safety instructions.

Prepare vehicle as described in safety instructions ensuring the ground on which jack is to stand is level and solid (not tarmacadam). We recommend concrete.
To manoeuvre the jack, ensure that the jack handle is locked in one of the upper, middle or lower locking positions (fig.2). To lock the jack handle, turn the locking lever clockwise until it releases from the housing and locks in the desired position (fig.3). With the jack handle locked, position the jack saddle under the vehicle manufacturer ’s recommended lifting point (refer to vehicle handbook).
Use the jack handle locked in either the middle or lower locking positions when manoeuvring the jack saddle to jacking points that are
located further underneath larger vehicles.

RAISING THE VEHICLE

Ensure that the jack and the vehicle are on a hard level surface.
Always ensure that the vehicle handbrake is engaged and the vehicle wheels are chocked.
Consult the vehicle handbook to determine the position of the jacking points.
Unlock the jack handle by lifting the locking lever and rotating it anticlockwise until it sits in the locking lever housing.
Turn the release valve control knob clockwise. DO NOT over-tighten. The jack saddle may be raised up to the load quickly using the foot pedal. DO NOT attempt to raise the load with the foot pedal.
Pump the jack handle through its full stroke until the vehicle reaches the required height.
Place axle stands beneath the locations recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
Turn the release valve control knob anticlockwise to lower the vehicle onto the axle stands.

LOWERING A VEHICLE

Rotate the release valve control knob clockwise.
Raise the vehicle off the axle stands.
Remove the axle stands from beneath the vehicleRotate the release valve control knob slowly anticlockwise.

SAFETY WARNING! Always lower in a slow and controlled manner and ensure that there are no persons or obstacles beneath the vehicle, or in the path of descent. Withdraw the jack from underneath the vehicle and lock the handle in the upper locking position.

MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT : Only fully qualified personnel should attempt maintenance or repair.

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

Lubrication is critical to jacks, since they support heavy loads.
To keep the jack well lubricated, carry out the following steps:
Lubricate the ram, the linkages, the saddle and pump mechanism with light oil.
Grease the lifting arm, wheel bearings and axles.
Keep all jack surfaces and warning labels clean.
Check and maintain the ram oil level (Section 6.3).
THREE MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
At three monthly intervals, check the ram for any signs of rust or corrosion. Clean the ram as required and wipe with an oiled cloth.
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Fully retract the ram by turning the release valve control knob anticlockwise.
With the jack in the level position, remove the top cover carefully
Remove the oil filler plug.
The oil should be level with the bottom of the oil filler hole. If it is not, top up with clean hydraulic jack oil (Sealey Part No: HJO500MLS or HJO5LS).
Replace the oil filler plug and check the jack operation.
Bleed air from the hydraulic unit as required (Section 4.4).

NOTE : Always store the jack in the fully lowered position. This will protect critical areas from excessive corrosion.
