SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES & SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:

1. PRIOR TO USE, THE OPERATOR SHOULD BE INSTRUCTED BY A QUALIFIED PERSON IN THE SAFE AND PROPER USE OF

THE JACK FOR ANY SPECIFIC APPLICATION.

NOTICE: TEMPLETON, KENLY & CO. MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT THE JACKS COVERED BY THIS DOCUMENT ARE SUITABLE

OR ANYGENERAL OR PARTICULAR USE OTHER THAN CABLE REEL LIFTING OR POSITION OF THESE AND ANY TYPE SPECIFIED, AND

THE USER ASSUMES ALL LIABILITY ARISING THEREFROM.

2. IN ADDITION TO COMPLIANCE WITH THE STANDARDS SET FORTH BY ANSI B30.1CHAPETER 1-2, AND 1-3, ALL JACKS SHOULD

BE EXAMINED BY A QUALIFIED PERSON PRIOR TO EACH USE FOR INSTRUCTION LABLES, WARNING LABELS, DAMAGE, PROPER

LUBRICATION AND WEAR. THE JACKS SHOULD BE OPERATED THROUGH ONE COMPLETE TRAVEL CYCLE PRIOR TO APPLICA-

TION OF LOAD TO VERIFY THAT ALL MECHANISMS PROPERLY FUNCTION AND THE JACKS ARE IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION.

NEVER USE A JACK THAT IS DAMAGED, IMPROPERLY LUBRICATED, OR MALFUNCTIONING. JACKS THAT FAIL INSPECTION MUST

BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE UNTIL REPAIRED BY AN AUTHORIZED AGENCY.

3. SIMPLEX JACKS ARE LOAD RATED IN PAIRS. CONSULT DECAL AND VERIFY THAT CAPACITY AND TRAVEL IS SUITABLE FOR

THE LOAD. IF UNABLE TO CALCULATE THE LOAD EXACTLY, SELECT A PAIR OF JACKS WITH GREATER CAPCITY THAN THE

ESTIMATED LOAD ALLOWING A LARGE MARGIN OF SAFETY.

4. PLACE THE PAIR OF JACKS ON A FIRM FOUND FOUNDATION MAKING SURE THAT THE JACKS ARE EVENLY AND RIGIDLY SUPPORTED

AT THE BASE AND PROPERLY ALIGNED PERPENDICULAR TO THE LOAD. ALSO BE SURE THAT THE JACKS

ARE PROPERLY ALIGNED AT THE LIFTING POINT SUPPORTED IN A MANNER THAT THE JACKS CANNOT SLIP OR THE LOAD

CANNOT SHIFT.

5. USE THE SIMPLEX LEVER BAR RECOMMENDED FOR THE SPECIFIC JACK MODEL. THE LEVER BAR TO BE USED SHOULD NOT

EXCEED THE LENGTH SPECIFIED ON THE JACK DECAL. LEVER BAR EXTENDERS ARE NOT TO BE USED.

6. THE OPERATORS SHOULD MAKE SURE THAT THE AREA IS CLEAR OF PERSONNEL AND OBJECTS OBSTRUCTING WORKING

SPACE REQUIRED TO SAFELY ACTIVATE THE JACK LEVER IN BOTH THE UP AND DOWN MODE.

7. THE OPERATORS HEAD AND BODY SHOULD BE POSITIONED TO ONE SIDE OF THE LEVER IN A MANNER TO PREVENT SERIOUS

INJURY SHOULD A SUDDEN MOVEMENT IN THE LOAD CAUSE THE LEVER TO “KICK UP”,

8. PRIOR TO OPERATING THE JACK TO RAISE THE LOAD READ OPERATING INSTRUCTION (A) ON THE REVERSE SIDE. LIFT THE

LOAD EVENLY AND OBSERVE THE LOAD DURING OPERATION TO WATCH FOR POSSIBLE SHIFTING OF THE LOAD OR CONDI-

TONS THAT COULD CAUSE ACCIDENTAL DISLOCATION OF JACK.

9. CAUTION: DO NOT LIFT HUMAN CARGO. DO NOT ALLOW PERSONNEL ON OR UNDER THE LOAD.

10. DO NOT EXCEED THE JACK TRAVEL SHOWN ON THE DECAL OR CONTINUE TO APPLY LEVER FORCE TO EXTEND THE JACK

AFTER STOP CONTACT HAS OCCURRED. NEVER KICK, JUMP ON, STAND ON OR STRADDLE THE LEVER BAR. DO NOT STRIKE

WITH A HAMMER OR FORCE THE LEVER IN A ROCKING MOTION. SUCH ACTIONS CREATE A PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD. THE

JACK COULD BECOME DISLODGED CAUSING THE LOAD TO DROP. JACK WORKING PARTS COULD ALSO BECOME DAMAGED

AND FAIL.

11. AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION, REMOVE THE LEVER BAR FROM THE SOCKET AFTER LIFTING IS COMPLETE AND WHEN JACKS ARE NOT

IN OPERATION. ACCIDENTALLY STRIKING AN UNATTENDED LEVER BAR PROJECTING FROM THE SOCKET COULD DISLOCATE OR

DISLODGE THE JACK CAUSING THE LOAD TO DROP. UNATTENDED LEVER BARS CAN PRESENT A TRIP HAZARD.

12. IMPORTANT: PRIOR TO RATCHETING THE JACK TO LOWER THE LOAD, READ OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS B ON THE REVERSE SIDE.

OPERATOR SHOULD FOLLOW PROCEDURE (7) ABOVE AND TAKE PRECAUTIONS THAT ALL PERSONNEL AND PARTS OF THE HUMAN

BODY ARE CLEAR OF THE LOAD BEFORE LOWERING.

MAINTENANCE & LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1. COMPLY WITH PROCEDURE #2 ABOVE AND THE REQUIREMENTS OF ANSI B30.1, CHAPTER 1-2 AS DETERMINED FROM USE, EXPERI-

ENCE OR AS SPECIFIED BY A QUALIFIED PERSON OF AUTHORITY.

2. KEEP JACK CLEAN, FREE OF GRIT, AND IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION, REPLACE WORN, DAMAGED OR MISSING LABLES.

3. LUBRICATE RACK BAR WITH #2 GRAPHITE GREASE EXCEPT ON TOOTH SIDE.

4. LUBRICATE PERIODICALLY AT POINTS MARKED WITH (*) ASTERISK (SEE REVERSE SIDE) WITH A GOOD GRADE OF SAE 20

WT. OIL CONTAINING GRAPHITE – AVOID LUBRICATION OF THE TOOTH SURFACE OF PAWLS AND RACK BAR.
