SYSTEM AIR PURGE PROCEDURE
OPERATION
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.
5. Assemble the handle; ensure to align with
slots.
6. Close the release valve by turning it
clockwise until it is firmly closed.
7. Before raising the vehicle double check and
verify the saddle is centered and also has full
contact with the lifting point.
8. Pump handle to lift until saddle contacts
load. Continue to pump the jack handle to lift
the vehicle to the desired height. After lifting,
support the load with appropriately rated
vehicle support stands before working on the
vehicle.
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 firmly 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.)
5. After removing jack from under the load,
keep jack in the lowered position to reduce
exposure to rust and contamination.
CAUTION:
NEVER WIRE, CLAMP
OR OTHERWISE DISABLE THE LIFT
CONTROL VALVE TO FUNCTION BY ANY
MEANS OTHER THAN BY USING THE

PROVIDED WITH THIS PRODUCT OR AN
AUTHORIZED REPLACEMENT HANDLE TO
ENSURE PROPER RELEASE VALVE
OPERATION. DO NOT USE EXTENSIONS
ON THE OPERATING HANDLE.
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
