OPERATION
How the Jack Operates
With release valve closed, an upward stroke of the jack handle draws oil from the
reservoir tank into the plunger cavity. Hydraulic pressure holds the valve closed, which
keeps the oil in the plunger cavity. A downward stroke of the jack handle releases oil
into the cylinder, which forces the ram out. This raises the saddle. When the ram
reaches maximum extension, oil is bypassed back into the reservoir to prevent an over
extended ram stroke and possible damage to the jack. Opening the release valve
allows oil to flow back into reservoir. This releases hydraulic pressure on the ram,
which results in lowering the saddle.
RAISING THE JACK
1. Block the vehicle’s wheels for lifting stability. Secure the load to prevent
inadvertent shifting and movement
2. Position the jack near desired lift point.
3. Set the Parking Brake in the vehicle.
4. Refer to the vehicle manufacturer owner’s manual to locate approved lifting
points on the vehicle. Position the jack so that the saddle is centered and will
contact the load lifting point firmly.
