MAINTENANCE

• If you use and maintain your equipment properly, it will give you many years of service. Follow the maintenance instructions carefully to keep your equipment in good working condition. Never perform any maintenance on the equipment while it is under a load.
• Inspection: Inspect the product for damage, wear, broken or missing parts (eg: pins) and that all components function before each use. Follow lubrication and storage instructions for optimum product performance. Ensure all moving parts are clear of dirt and debris.
• Cleaning: If the moving parts of the equipment are obstructed, use cleaning solvent or another good degreaser to clean the equipment. Remove any existing rust, with a penetrating lubricant.
• Lubrication: This equipment will not operate safely without proper lubrication. Using the equipment without proper lubrication will result in poor performance and damage to the equipment. A coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust. Periodically check the pump piston and ram for signs of rust or corrosion.

1. With saddle fully lowered and pump piston fully depressed, set jack in its upright level position.
2. Remove oil filler plug.
3. Fill until oil is level with the filler plug hole, reinstall oil filler plug.

Replace Jack Oil:
For best performance and longest life, replace the complete fluid supply at least once per year.

1.  With the saddle fully lowered and pump piston fully depressed, remove the oil filler plug.
