2. Important Safety Information

WARNING: Read, understand, and follow all instructions before operating this device. Failure to observe these warnings may result in property damage, serious injury, or death.

• Always use jack stands to support the vehicle once it has been lifted. Never rely solely on the hydraulic jack to support a vehicle.
• Ensure the jack and jack stands are placed on a hard, level surface. Avoid soft or uneven ground.
• Do not exceed the rated load capacity of 2 tons (4,000 lbs) for both the jack and the jack stands.
• Position the jack and jack stands only at the vehicle manufacturer's recommended lifting points. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual.
• Chock unlifted wheels to prevent accidental movement of the vehicle.
• Ensure no one is in the vehicle when lifting or lowering.
• Lower the vehicle slowly and carefully.
• Keep hands and feet clear of moving parts and pinch points.
• Do not modify the jack or jack stands. Use only as intended.
• This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm (Proposition 65 Warning). Wash hands after handling.

5. Setup and Initial Preparation

5.1 Assembling the Jack Handle

1. Unpack the jack handle components. The handle typically comes in two pieces.
2. Slide the upper handle section into the lower handle section until it locks securely.
3. Insert the assembled handle into the handle receiver on the rear of the hydraulic floor jack. Ensure it is fully seated.

5.2 Bleeding the Hydraulic System (Before First Use)

Air can become trapped in the hydraulic system during shipping. Bleeding the system ensures proper operation.

1. Locate the release valve on the jack. This is typically a screw or knob near the handle receiver.
2. Using the handle, turn the release valve counter-clockwise one full turn to open it.
3. Pump the handle 10-15 full strokes to force any trapped air out of the system.
4. Turn the release valve clockwise until it is firmly closed. Do not overtighten.
5. Test the jack by lifting it to its full height and then lowering it. Repeat a few times. If operation is not smooth, repeat the bleeding process.

5.3 Preparing Jack Stands

The jack stands are ready for use out of the box. Familiarize yourself with their adjustment mechanism.

• To adjust height, lift the ratchet bar and slide it to the desired position. Ensure the pawl fully engages with the teeth.
• Always ensure both jack stands are set to the same height before supporting a vehicle.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Lifting a Vehicle

1. Park the vehicle on a hard, level surface. Engage the parking brake and chock the wheels that will remain on the ground.
2. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual to locate the manufacturer's recommended lifting points.
3. Position the hydraulic floor jack directly under the designated lifting point. Ensure the saddle of the jack is centered and making full contact with the lifting point.
4. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise until it is firmly closed.
5. Pump the jack handle to raise the vehicle to the desired height. Lift only high enough to allow placement of jack stands.

6.2 Supporting with Jack Stands

1. Once the vehicle is lifted, position the jack stands under the vehicle at the manufacturer's recommended support points, adjacent to the jack's lifting point.
2. Adjust the height of the jack stands so that the vehicle's weight will rest securely on them. Ensure the pawl is fully engaged in the ratchet bar.
3. Slowly open the jack's release valve by turning it counter-clockwise. Allow the vehicle to descend gently onto the jack stands.
4. Once the vehicle is fully supported by the jack stands, remove the hydraulic floor jack.
5. Before working under the vehicle, gently shake the vehicle to ensure it is stable on the jack stands.

6.3 Lowering a Vehicle

1. Ensure all tools and personnel are clear from under and around the vehicle.
2. Position the hydraulic floor jack under the original lifting point and raise the vehicle slightly, just enough to relieve pressure from the jack stands.
3. Remove the jack stands from under the vehicle.
4. Slowly and carefully turn the jack's release valve counter-clockwise to lower the vehicle to the ground. Control the descent speed.
5. Once the vehicle is fully on the ground, remove the jack and wheel chocks.

7. Maintenance

7.1 General Care

• Keep the jack and jack stands clean and free of dirt, grease, and debris.
• Inspect all components before each use for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Do not use if any part is damaged.
• Lubricate moving parts periodically with light machine oil.

7.2 Hydraulic Fluid Check/Refill

Check the hydraulic fluid level every three months or as needed.

1. With the jack fully lowered, remove the oil filler plug.
2. The fluid level should be just below the filler hole.
3. If low, add high-quality hydraulic jack oil (e.g., ISO VG 15 or equivalent) until the correct level is reached. Do not overfill.
4. Replace the oil filler plug securely.
