BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using jack, purge hydraulic unit in order to eliminate
any air in the system. Place handle onto the release valve nut
as shown in fig.1 and open the valve by turning the handle
anti-clockwise, place the handle back into the jacking socket
and pump for 20 repetitions. When complete, close the release valve by turning the valve nut clockwise. Place a few drops of hydraulic jack oil onto the pump piston
Release Valve
and pump the handle several times to distribute the oil.
Thoroughly lubricate all moving parts.
GENERAL JACKING
WARNING! Before lifting ensure Section 1 safety instructions are read and understood.
Prepare the vehicle as mentioned in the safety instructions ensuring the ground on which the jack is to stand is level and solid (not
tarmacadam).
Position the jack saddle under the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended lifting point.
JACKING THE VEHICLE
Close the release valve using the handle,Place the handle into the handle socket and commence pumping handle up and down using
maximum strokes until vehicle has been lifted to the required height.
Should the jack become overloaded, a safety excess pressure valve will open and stop the vehicle from lifting.
WARNING! The jack is a lifting device only and must not be used to support the load. Use correctly rated axle stands to support the
load.
LOWERING THE VEHICLE
WARNING! Ensure there are no persons or obstacles beneath the vehicle, or in the path of its descent.
If using axle stands, raise the jack high enough for the stands to be easily removed. Then place the handle onto the release valve nut
and turn anti-clockwise, very slowly, to open the valve.
The lowering speed is controlled by descent control so lowering is gradual rather than being dropped suddenly.

Jacks shall be maintained and repaired in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Such maintenance and repair shall be carried out by qualified persons. No modifications shall be carried out which adversely affect the compliance of the jack with to the standard, see Specification section. Check the state of the markings and that the marking remain as the initial one. When the jack is not in use, the ram should be in its lowest position to minimise corrosion. Remove the handle to inactivate jack. Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts on a regular basis. Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose parts, or any visible damage to ram, pump, saddle, lifting arm, frame and all parts including nuts, bolts, pins and other fasteners. If any suspect item is found remove jack from service and take necessary action to remedy the problem. DO NOT use the jack if believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock load. Periodically check the pump piston and the ram for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth. After one year the oil should be replaced in order to extend the life of the jack. Use hydraulic jack oil only. IMPORTANT: Only fully qualified personnel should attempt hydraulic maintenance or repair. To check the oil level, fully lower the jack. Remove the two bolts that hold the black cover in place and prise out the cover from between the side walls of the jack. Remove oil filler plug (fig.2). The correct level is just below the bottom of the plug. If oil level is low, fill as required. Replace cover. NOTE: Use a good quality jack oil, such as SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL. WARNING! DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than hydraulic jack oil as this may cause serious damage to the jack and will invalidate the warranty. When draining the oil make sure that no dirt is allowed to enter the hydraulic system. IMPORTANT: NO RESPONSIBILITY IS ACCEPTED FOR INCORRECT USE OF THIS PRODUCT. Hydraulic products are only repaired by local service agents. We have service/repair agents in all parts of the UK. DO NOT return jacks to us.

IF JACK WILL NOT LIFT LOAD Oil level may be low. Check oil level as described
in section 5.6. and top up if necessary. To ensure complete distribution of
the oil go through the following procedure: Close the release valve and
manually pull the lifting arm up to its full height. Open the release valve
and, by stepping on the saddle, force the arm to lower as rapidly as possible.
Repeat this operation three or four times. This procedure also thoroughly
flushes the valves and in most cases will restore the jack to full working
order. The jack may have air trapped in the system. To eliminate trapped air
open the release valve and pump the handle through its full stroke six times.
Close release valve. After several months of service the pump O’ ring seal may become worn. If this is suspected take the jack to an approved agent for servicing. The release valve may be held open by dirt on the valve seat. Flush by pulling the lifting arm up and down several times manually while the release valve is open. The load is heavier than 2 tonnes and the overload valve has operated. Remove load obtain higher capacity jack. The overload valve is factory set and should not be altered. IF JACK WILL NOT HOLD THE LOAD The discharge valve may be held open by dirt on the seat. Perform the procedure described in section 6.1.2. If this does not solve the problem take the jack to an approved agent for servicing. Where a jack has received heavy service the ram cup seal may become worn. If this is suspected take the jack to an approved agent for servicing. Release valve partially open. Fully close release valve. IF JACK WILL NOT LOWER COMPLETELY The lifting arm return spring may be broken or unhooked. Replace return spring. Jack requires lubrication. Clean and oil all moving parts in the lifting arm mechanism. Hydraulic unit is overfilled with oil. Drain off excess oil. JACK WILL NOT LIFT FULL 2 TONNE LOAD PistonO’ ring seal may have become worn. If this is suspected take the
jack to an approved agent for servicing. The jack may have air trapped in the
system. See section 6.1.2. Jack frame/link system distorted due to overloading
or poor positioning. Return to an approved service agent for replacement of
damaged parts.
