WARNINGS

• Do not operate this product if it is damaged.

• This jack is a lifting device only, it is not intended for hold-

ing weight - always use axle stands where necessary to

support the vehicle.

• No after market alterations must be made to this jack.

• Only designated attachments and adaptors supplied by sgs

engineering should be used.

• Ensure minimum distance of 50cm between static objects

such as doors, walls etc to allow for vehicle tilting.

• Never adjust the safety overload valve.

• Never top up the hydraulic system of this trolley jack using

brake ﬂuid.

• Always lift in areas of the vehicle assembly as advised by

the vehicle manufacturer, e.g in proper jacking points etc

• Always store this trolley jack in a safe area when not in use,

INSPECTION BEFORE EACH USE

Before each use, it’s highly advised to visually inspect this trol-

ley jack.

Abnormalities that should be checked for every time:

• cracked welds

• leaking ﬂuid anywhere on the trolley jack

• bent parts

• missing parts

• loose parts

• damaged parts

This trolley jack should be taken out of service if it is believed

to have been subjected to an abnormal load or shock.

Owner/operators should be aware that repair of this trolley jack

requires specialist attention in the form of suitable repair

equipment and knowledge.

1. The jack handle should be placed

on the release valve and turned anti-

clockwise to open the valve.

2. Place the handle back into the

receiver and pump the jack handle up

and down 20 times.

This should force any air from the

system and lubricate the seals.

3. Close the release valve by turning

clockwise.

4. Test the jack. If the jack won’t lift, or

lifts but won’t hold a load, then repeat

the procedure. If the problem persists

then please contact us.

PURGING YOUR TROLLEY JACK

Sometimes during transport and handling, air gets into the

hydraulic system causing poor lifting performance. Before the

initial operation purge any air from the system by following

these steps:

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. Raise your vehicle by closing the

release valve and pumping the handle.

LOWERING THE VEHICLE

1. Place the handle onto the release valve

and turn it slowly anti-clockwise to open

the release valve.

2. The vehicle will lower.

MAINTENANCE GUIDE

Daily. See INSPECTION BEFORE EACH USE (page 4).

Monthly. Lubrication is critical to jacks as they support heavy

loads. Any restriction due to dirt, rust or corrosion can cause

either slow movement or rapid jerks damaging the internal

components. The following steps are designed to keep the

jack maintained and operational:

1. Open the release valve by turning the handle knob counter

clockwise and push the ram to its lowest position

2. Remove the ﬁller plug.

3. Fill with clean hydraulic jack oil. Do not use hydraulic brake

ﬂuid.

4. Reinstall the ﬁller plug.

Add lubrication to all moving parts as needed.

Every 6 months. Carry out a thorough inspection for service-

ability of component parts Visually inspect for oil leaks (only

a slight oil seepage is permissible). If a leak is found, take the

jack out of service and consult with SGS Engineering.

Annually. Check the ram oil level as follows:

1. Ensure the ram is fully retracted by turning the knob fully

anticlockwise.

2. Remove the cover plate, located at the base of the handle

housing, to gain access the ram, then remove the ram ﬁller

plug.

3. Lift the jack so that it is vertical, resting on its front wheels

and check the oil level. It should be level with the bottom

of the oil ﬁller hole. If necessary, top up with Hydraulic oil.

4. Replace ﬁller plug and purge system of air (see page 5).
