 WARNING! ALWAYS USE LOAD RATED STANDS TO SUPPORT LIFTED LOADS.

▲ DANGER! Use the jack for lifting and lowering only.

▲ DANGER! DO NOT place any part of the body beneath the lifted load unless the load is fully supported by rated stands.

▲ DANGER! DO NOT place any part of the body beneath the load during lifting or lowering.

 DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the jack, load or maximum stroke.

 DO NOT adjust the overload valve, modify or use the jack for any purpose other than for which it is designed (lifting and lowering

mechanical devices).

 DO NOT leave elevated loads unattended, unless safe from others in a garage or workshop.

 DO NOT modify the jack.

 Ensure the jacking area is solid and level. Increase the jacking area with a solid flat plate (steel) if jacking on tarmacadum or grass.

 Keep others away from the work area.

 Ensure the jacking area is clutter free and that there is adequate lighting.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING! ALWAYS USE RATED STANDS.

Please remember a jack is a lifting and lowering device and is not designed to support a load. Never get underneath a vehicle supported only

by a jack; your life is at risk. We stock a comprehensive range of axle stands, for example, please see relevant catalogue section for full details.

The jack is not limited to vehicle use only, with many applications in the engineering and construction industries.

 WARNING! Before use refer to section 1. SAFETY.

4.1. Lifting the load

Purge the hydraulic system in order to eliminate any air that may have accumulated in transit or whilst stored.

a) Place the telescopic jack lever over the release valve tang and turn anti clockwise to open the valve.

b) Insert the telescopic jack lever into the sleeve of the hydraulic pump.

c) Pump several times to ensure complete evacuation of air from the system.

d) When complete register the telescopic lever over the release valve and turn clockwise to close.

4.1.1. Position the jack beneath the jacking point of the load to be lifted and on to an area that is solid and level.

4.1.2. Depending upon the height to be lifted, adjust the extension screw to suit.

4.1.3. Insert the telescopic jack lever into the sleeve of the hydraulic pump until the spring catch engages. Pump the handle, full stroke

range, so that the saddle quickly reaches the load to be lifted. Depress the spring catch with a screwdriver to remove.

4.1.4. Observe carefully the load and jack whilst elevating to the required height.

4.1.5. When the load is at the required height, place correctly rated stand or stands beneath the load near the jacking point.

4.1.6. Lower the load carefully and slowly on to the stand or stands. Register the telescopic jack lever over the release valve and turn

anticlockwise to open the valve. Remove the jack if required for access.

4.2. Lowering the load

4.2.1. Position the jack beneath the jacking point of the load to be lifted and on to an area that is solid and level.

4.2.2. Depending upon the height to be lifted, adjust the leadscrew to suit.

4.2.3. Insert the telescopic jack lever into the sleeve of the hydraulic pump until the spring catch engages. Pump the lever, full stroke

range, so that the saddle quickly reaches the load to be lifted. Depress the spring catch with a screwdriver to remove.

4.2.4. Observe carefully the load and jack whilst elevating to the required height.

4.2.5. Remove the stand or stands.

4.2.6. Lower the load carefully and slowly on to the oor. Register the telescopic jack lever over the release valve and turn anticlockwise to

open the valve. Control the speed of descent by partially opening the valve before opening fully. To lower when not loaded, use the

lever and push down with your foot. (See icon)

IMPORTANT! Repair and maintenance of the jack to be carried out by fully qualied personnel only.

 WARNING! DO NOT use brake uid, or any uid other than Sealey hydraulic jack uid. Use of non preferred jack oil may cause

damage and invalidate the warranty.

5.1. When the jack is not in use, store with the ram and thread fully contracted, minimising ingress and corrosion.

5.2. Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts with an acid free lubricating oil regularly.

5.3. Check the jack reservoir oil level regularly by removing the ller plug. The oil level should be at the ller port. Top up as required.

5.4. After a year of extensive use, the oil should be replaced with new. To drain the oil, remove the ller plug and valve. Work clean to

ensure zero ingress. Ensure the waste oil is recycled in accordance with local authority regulations.

5.5. Top up with new oil with the ram fully retracted. Pump the unloaded jack ve or six times to expel any air. Pump the jack to full height;

allow excess oil to escape before retting plug.

5.6. Visually check the jack before each use for mechanical integrity, cracked welds, worn parts etc.. If any damage is found, remove the

jack from service.

5.7. Keep the piston rod clean and free of corrosion, clean exposed rod with a clean oiled cloth.

Lubricate leadscrew,

piston rod, pump

spindle and linkages.
