ASSEMBLY, OPERATION, PREVENTITIVE MAINTENANCE

FEATURES
This TradeQuip “Made for the Trade” 500kg Auxiliary Lifter is the perfect under hoist aid during the removal and installation of small components. It features a mounting cradle and lift pad and a manually operated hydraulic system with smooth hydraulic lift and descent. The hydraulic system also includes a bypass system to prevent over-extension and accidental overloading. NOT INTENDED FOR SUPPORTING LOADS NOT INTENDED AS STAND-ALONE TRANSMISSION LIFTER

ASSEMBLY
Unpack the product and check contents with the exploded drawing and the parts list. Should there be any damaged or missing parts, contact your place of purchase immediately.

1. Attach the two legs (67) to the base (33) using bolts (63) and lock washer (62) washer (61).
2. Fit the four castors (68) to the legs (67) using nuts (64) and washers (65).
3. Put the saddle (25) onto the top of the piston rod (26) and slip it down.

BEFORE USE
Ensure Breather Valve is open before use.

Prior to use conduct a visual inspection checking for abnormal conditions, such as cracked welds, leaks, and damaged, loose, or missing parts.

1. Leave the Auxiliary Lifter for one hour to allow the oil to settle before purging the system. NOTE: Failure to allow sufficient time for the oil to settle could result in air remaining in the oil. In this event, the jack will not purge completely first time and a second purge will be required.
2. Loosen the air vent screw (22)
3. Purge the hydraulic circuit to eliminate any air in the system by ensuring the air vent screw (22) is opened at least one full turn, holding the spring-loaded release handle (02) to the right position and then pumping the foot pedal (46) 15 to 20 times.
4. With the release handle back in the closed position, test the jack without load by raising it to full height and then lowering it. Partially opening the release valve will result in a slow and gradual descent of the load, while opening it fully allows for a faster descent.

OPERATION
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions and warnings before use. Failure to heed these instructions may result in property damage and/or personal injury.

• Do not force the product. Products are safer and do a better job when used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your work and use the correct product for the job.
• Be aware of dynamic loading. A sudden loading movement may briefly create an excess load causing product failure.

1. Roll the Auxiliary Lifter into position and pump the foot pedal (46) until saddle (25) reaches desired height.
   NOTE : Follow vehicle manufacturer’s recommended procedures for removing the load as outlined in vehicle service manual or repair guide.

2. Carefully center load on the saddle. Ensure the load’s center of gravity is centered on the saddle and the setup is stable and secure.
   NOTE : Before lowering load check to ensure all tools and personnel are clear and it is safe to lower the load.

3. SLOWLY and CAREFULLY turn the release handle (02) to the right to lower the load to its lowest possible position.
   NOTE : The speed of lowering is controlled by the release handle. The more the valve is opened the more rapidly the jack descends. Ensure the decent is slow and controlled. WARNING! Dangerous dynamic shock loads are created by quick opening and closing the release handle when the load is being lowered. The resulting overload may cause hydraulic system failure which could cause property damage and/or severe personal injury.

4. If necessary, CAREFULLY and SLOWLY move the support stand.

5. Transfer load immediately to appropriate support device for service or repair.

NOTE : The speed of lowering is controlled by pressure on the release valve. The more the valve is opened the more rapidly the jack descends. Ensure the decent is slow and controlled.

WARNING : Dangerous dynamic shock loads are created by quick opening and closing the release valve when the load is being lowered. The resulting overload may cause hydraulic system failure which could cause property damage and/or severe personal injury.

INSPECTION

• Prior to each use conduct a visual inspection checking for abnormal conditions, such as cracked welds, leaks, anddamaged, loose, or missing parts.
• The support stand shall be maintained in accordance with the maintenance instructions. No alterations or modifications shall be made to this support stand.
• Inspections shall be performed in accordance with this owner’s manual.
• The support stand must be inspected immediately if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock.
• Owners and /or operators should be aware that repair of this product may require specialised equipment and knowledge (refer to maintenance section).

STORAGE
This support stand should always be stored in a dry location on a level surface with the saddle fully lowered and the air vent valve closed.

MAINTENANCE

Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Non-authorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.

1. When not in use, store the jack in a dry location with saddle in lowest position.

2. Periodically check the piston rod for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.
   Warning : Never use sandpaper or abrasive material on these surfaces!

3. A coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure that castors, foot pedal and pump assemblies move freely. Periodically lubricate the pivot points, axles and hinges with a light lubricating oil as needed.

4. With the jack in its lowest position, remove the air vent screw (22) to check the hydraulic oil level. If it is not adequate, add high quality hydraulic jack oil as necessary. Insert and tighten the air vent screw. Then purge away air from hydraulic system as described in 3.3.
   Warning : DO NOT use brake fluid or any other improper fluid and avoid mixing different types of oil when adding hydraulic oil.

5. 5. To ensure best performance and longer equipment life, replace the complete hydraulic oil at least once a year. With jack in its lowest position, remove the air vent screw (22), lay the jack on its side and drain the oil into a suitable container. Ensure that no dirt gets into the system. Set the jack in its level upright position, fill with approved hydraulic jack oil. Then replace the air vent screw (22) and purge away air from hydraulic system as described in
   Note : Dispose of hydraulic oil in accordance with local regulations.

6. When equipment efficiency drops, purge away air from hydraulic system as described in 3.3.

7. It is recommended that an annual inspection be done by qualified technicians.

Important : Dirt is the greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units. Keep the support stand clean and well lubricated to prevent foreign matter from entering the system.

• Pivots and pins in all manual pump and release mechanisms should be lubricated with a Light Bearing Grease or 30/40W
• Machine Oil to ensure long life and prevent premature wear.
• Wheel axles and Castor ball races should be lubricated with a Light Bearing Grease or 30/40W Machine Oil to ensure long life and prevent premature wear.
• Pedal Type Release Mechanisms should be lubricated with a light bearing grease or 30W/40W Machine Oil.
• If the transmission lifter has been exposed to rain, snow, sand, or grit it must be cleaned before it is stored or used.
• Periodically check the piston rod for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.

WARNING : Never use sandpaper or abrasive material on these surfaces.
