• Keep and maintain the Kojack® and components in good condition.
• Inspect and test the Kojack® and components before use. to ensure there are no leaks, loose, bent or missing parts.
• Do not use the Kojack® and its components if they are in any way defective.

RECOMMENDED SAFE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Do not operate the Kojack® whilst under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication that could impair your ability to use the equipment safely.

Consult the vehicle owner’s manual prior to using the Kojack® and its components.

• The vehicle must be attached to the tow vehicle before and when jacking.
• Keep the work area clean and free of hazards.
• Keep children at a safe distance whilst working on the vehicle.
• Kojack® should be used on firm, level ground wherever possible
• Do not occupy the vehicle whilst lifting or working on it.
• Chock all wheels before using the Kojack® to lift the vehicle.
• No person should place any portion of their body under the vehicle supported only by the Kojack® .
• After the vehicle is raised to the correct height, secure it by placing a vehicle support stand under the chassis.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

During shipment and handling, air can become trapped in the hydraulic system degrading the performance of the Kojack®. This can also occur when changing and topping up the hydraulic fluid. To purge air from the system, lower the hydraulic ram as far as it will go, place the jack horizontally with the oil filler cap facing upwards and remove the cap, which will allow the air to escape.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – TO LIFT

1. Unscrew the Cap by turning it anti-clockwise until it will accommodate the Collar (aprox. 5cm above the Hydraulic Ram). Do not fully unscrew – Max height 7cm.

2. Fit the two sides of the Collar around the threaded section under the Cap.

3. Screw the Cap down to restrict vertical movement of the Collar between the Cap and the Hydraulic Ram before fitting any Adaptor or Extension.

4. Fit the round or square head adapter over the Collar, depending upon application.

5. Insert the Hex Key into the Grub Screw located on the Adapter and tighten by turning it clockwise until firm. Repeat for the other grub screw

6. Position the Kojack® under the round socket or square mount on the vehicle.

7. Join the three sections of the Jack Handle together.

8. Insert the notched end of the Jack Handle into the Kojack® Release Valve and rotate clockwise to close the valve.

9. Place the other end of the Jack handle in the tube mounted on the Kojack® and move the Jack Handle up and down to raise the vehicle.

10. If the jack is unable to lift the vehicle to the desired height, insert the Jack Handle into the Release Valve and gently turn anti-clockwise to lower the vehicle. (Once the Release Valve is sufficiently turned it will release the jack to descend -the decent can be controlled by the amount the release valve is turned.)

11. Insert the Hex Key into one Grub Screw at a time and turn it anti-clockwise sufficiently to release the round or square head adapter.

12. Fit either the 150mm, 100mm or both Extension Pieces over the Collar and tighten the Grub Screws to secure it.

13. Fit the appropriate Head Adapter over the Extension Piece and tighten the Grub Screws to secure it.

14. Repeat steps 8 and 9.

15. Place a vehicle support stand at an appropriate spot under the chassis of the vehicle suitable for resting and securing the vehicle and then lower the vehicle by gently turning the Release Valve on the Kojack anti-clockwise until the vehicle is resting on the vehicle support stand.

16. Remove the Kojack®
    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS – TO LOWER

18. Repeat Steps 8 and 9.

19. Remove the vehicle support stand.

20. Insert the Jack Handle into the Release Valve of the Kojack® and gently turn anti-clockwise to lower the vehicle.

AFTER USE AND STORAGE

• Remove the round or square Head Adapter, Extension/s and Collar.
• Ensure the Cap and threaded section is secured in the Hydraulic Ram by turning it clockwise until it will turn no more.
• Ensure the Hydraulic Ram is secure in the Kojack® by pushing it down as far as it will go. (If you have not already opened the Release Valve you will need to do this to lower the Hydraulic Ram)
• Store the Kojack® and its components upright in a dry environment to prevent the components from rusting.
• Store the Kojack and its components in a safe place inaccessible to children.

MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT NOTICE

When replacing or topping up hydraulic fluid use a high grade hydraulic fluid ISO10-15 or equivalent. Do not use brake fluid, alcohol, glycerin, detergent, motor oil or any other fluid preceived or claimed suitable, as the use of fluids other than the hydraulic fluid recommended will cause serious damage to the internal components rendering the jack inoperative.

TO ADD HYDRAULIC FLUID

Open the Release Valve by turning it anti-clockwise and depress the Hydraulic Ram as far as it will go. Place the Jack on its side horizontally with the Oil Filler Cap facing upwards and remove the cap. Fill with the recommended hydraulic fluid until the fluid is level with the filler aperture. Prevent any contaminants from mixing with the hydraulic fluid and entering the jack. Replace Oil Filler Cap.

TO CHANGE HYDRAULIC FLUID

Hydraulic Fluid should be changed every twelve (12) months to maintain the Jack in peak performance. To replace the hydraulic fluid remove the Oil Filler Cap, place the Jack on its side over a tray or bowl with the oil filler aperature facing downwards and allow the fluid to drain. This may take some time as air must enter to allow the fluid to drain. Dispose of the old hydraulic fluid according to any government regulations that apply. (Note hydraulic fluid is toxic to the environment). Once drained fill the jack with hydraulic fluid as per the instruction on how ‘to add hydraulic fluid’.

LUBRICATION

It is prudent to lubricate all pivoting joints on the Kojack® every three (3) months with a light oil.

PREVENTING RUST

Check the Hydraulic Ram every three (3) months for signs of corrosion. If apparent clean with an oily rag until removed. To minimise corrosion ensure the Hydraulic Ram is inserted all the way in the jack when not in use.

GENERAL CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Do not totally unscrew or remove the release valve.
