INSPECTION BEFORE EACH USE PURGING YOUR TROLLEY JACK
Sometimes during transport and handling, air gets into the hy-
draulic system causing poor lifting performance. Before the initial
operation purge any air from the system by following these steps:
1. Fully opening the release valve (turn the handle counter
clockwise).
2. Then while holding the saddle down pump the handle rapidly
several times.
3. Close the release valve (turn the handle lockwise).
4. Pump the trolley jack to its operational height, which com-
pletes the trolley jack purge. You can test this under load if
you wish.

RAISING THE VEHICLE
1. Make sure the jack and vehicle are on a hard level surface.
2. Always set the vehicle handbrake and chock the wheels.
3. Consult the vehicle owner’s manual to ascertain the location
of jacking points and position the jack beneath the lifting
point.
4. Turn the handle clockwise to the closed position.
5. To raise the vehicle pump the handle up and down. Do not
over extend the jack past the maximum height.
6. Place jack stands beneath the vehicle at locations recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer. Do not work under the
vehicle without the use of jack stands. Jacks are not designed
to maintain heavy loads for long periods of time.
7. Do not attempt to place jack stands simultaneously under
both ends of a vehicle or along one side of a vehicle.
8. Turn the handle slowly counter clockwise to lower the vehicle
onto the jack stands.
LOWERING THE VEHICLE
1. Turn the handle clockwise to close the release valve.
2. Pump the handle to lift the vehicle off the jack stands.
3. Remove the jack stands. Do not get under the vehicle while
the vehicle is being lowered.
4. Turn the handle slowly counter clockwise to lower the vehicle
onto the ground.
