LOWERING THE JACK
1. Raise load high enough to allow clearance for the jack stands to be removed, then carefully remove jack
stands.
2. Remove support stands.
3. Grasp the handle î‚¿rmly with both hands. Securely hold on to the jack handle so your hands do not slip and
ensure the release valve does not rapidly lower.
4. Carefully open the Release Valve by slowly turning the handle counter-clockwise. (Do not allow bystanders
around the jack or under the load when lowering the jack.
WARNING: WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN LOWERING THE JACK. THE JACK HANDLE
MAY TURN RAPIDLY. OPENING THE RELEASE VALVE TOO FAST CAN CAUSE THE JACK TO
LOWER RAPIDLY. FAILURE TO HEAD THESE WARNINGS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH.
5. After removing jack from under the load, keep jack in the lowered position to reduce exposure to rust and
contamination.
