1. Introduction

This manual provides essential instructions for the safe and effective operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your Larin 2.5 Ton High Lift Hydraulic SUV Jack (Model SUV-5000A). Please read and understand all instructions and safety warnings before using this product. Failure to do so may result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

2. Safety Information

WARNING: Failure to heed these warnings may result in serious personal injury or property damage.

  • Always use this jack on a hard, level surface.

  • Center the load on the jack saddle. Off-center loads can cause instability.
  • Ensure the vehicle's parking brake is engaged and wheels are chocked before lifting.
  • Lower the vehicle slowly and carefully.
  • Keep hands, feet, and other body parts clear of moving parts and the vehicle during lifting and lowering.
  • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses.
  • Inspect the jack for damage or wear before each use. Do not use if damaged.

4. Setup

  1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the jack and all components from the packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.
  2. Handle Assembly: Insert the handle into the handle socket on the jack. Ensure it is securely seated.
  3. Bleeding the Hydraulic System: Before first use, or if the jack has been stored for a long time, it may be necessary to bleed air from the hydraulic system. To do this:
    1. Turn the handle counter-clockwise to fully open the release valve.
    2. Pump the handle several times to force any trapped air out of the system.
    3. Turn the handle clockwise to close the release valve. The jack should now operate smoothly.

5. Operating Instructions

IMPORTANT: Always refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for specific jacking points and procedures.

  1. Prepare the Vehicle: Park the vehicle on a hard, level surface. Engage the parking brake and place wheel chocks on the wheels that will remain on the ground.
  2. Position the Jack: Locate the manufacturer-recommended jacking point on your vehicle. Roll the jack under the vehicle, ensuring the saddle is directly beneath the jacking point.
  3. Lift the Vehicle: Turn the handle clockwise to close the release valve. Pump the handle up and down to raise the vehicle to the desired height. Ensure the jack remains stable throughout the lifting process.
  4. Secure with Jack Stands: Once the vehicle is lifted, immediately place appropriately rated jack stands under the vehicle at the manufacturer-recommended support points. Slowly lower the vehicle onto the jack stands by gently turning the handle counter-clockwise to open the release valve. The jack should then be removed or left in place without supporting the full load.
  5. Lower the Vehicle: To lower the vehicle, first slightly raise it off the jack stands using the hydraulic jack. Remove the jack stands. Then, slowly turn the handle counter-clockwise to open the release valve, allowing the vehicle to descend gradually. Once fully lowered, remove the jack.

  • Lubrication: Lubricate all moving parts and pivot points with light machine oil regularly.
