TROUBLESHOOTING

IMPORTANT! Although the following may identify a problem, in most cases the problem must be resolved by your authorised service agent.

JACK WILL NOT LIFT

• First, bleed the jack. Air bubbles can form in the hydraulic system and prevent lifting. See section 5.
• Check the hydraulic fluid level. If the fluid level is low, add hydraulic fluid until it reaches the “full” mark.
• Make sure the release valve is closed. The release valve is located on the side of the jack. If the release valve is open, the jack will not lift.
• Close the release valve by turning it clockwise.
• Check for leaks. If you see any leaks, stop using the jack and contact a qualified technician for repairs.

JACK ONLY LIFTS HALFWAY

• This is usually caused by low hydraulic fluid level. Check the hydraulic fluid level and add fluid as needed.
• If the fluid level is correct, the jack may need to be bled. Braking can cause air bubbles to form in the hydraulic system, which can prevent the jack from lifting properly. To bleed the jack, follow the instructions in section 5.

JACK WILL NOT HOLD LOAD

• Make sure the jack is properly supported. The jack should be placed on a level surface and the load should be centered on the jack pad. 8.3.2. Check the hydraulic fluid level. The fluid level should be between the “full” and “add” marks on the sight glass. If the fluid level is low, add hydraulic fluid until it reaches the “full” mark.
• If the jack is properly supported and the fluid level is correct, the jack may need to be repaired. Contact a qualified technician for repairs. 8.4. JACK MAKES NOISE
• This is usually caused by air bubbles in the hydraulic system. To bleed the jack, follow the instructions in section 5.
• If the jack is still making noise after bleeding, it may need to be repaired. Contact a qualified technician for repairs.

NOTE: If you are unable to troubleshoot the problem, it is best to contact a qualified technician for help.
