Important: The greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units is dirt. Keep the

service jack clean and well lubricated to prevent foreign objects from entering the

system. If the jack has been exposed to rain, snow, sand or grit, it must be cleaned

before use.

1. Store the jack in a well-protected area where it will not be exposed to corrosive

vapors, abrasive dust, or any other harmful elements.

2. Regularly lubricate the moving parts in the wheels, arms, handle and pump roller pin.

3. Replace the hydraulic fluid in the reservoir at least once per year. To check the

hydraulic fluid level, lower the lifting arm completely. Remove the rubber filler plug

from the power unit. The hydraulic fluid level should be just below the filler plug. If

necessary, add hydraulic fluid, and reinstall the rubber filler plug.

Important: The use of alcohol in hydraulic brake fluid could damage the seals

and result in jack failure.

4. Inspect the jack before each use. Take corrective action if any of the following

problems are found:

a. Cracked, damaged, other damage.

d. Scored, damaged piston rod

b.Excessive wear, bending, other damage

e. Loose hardware

c. Leaking hydraulic fluid

f. Modified equipment

5.Keep warning labels and instructional decals clean and readable. You may use a

mild soap solution to wash external surfaces of the jack.
