THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS The use of Portable Automotive Lifting Devices are subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but only by the exercise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It is essential to have personnel involved in the use and operation of the device who are careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the device and its proper use when servicing motor vehicles and their components. Examples of hazards are dropping, tipping or slipping of loads caused primarily by improperly securing loads, overloading, off-centered loads, use on other than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not intended. METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS • Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before operating this device. • Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use jack if damaged, altered, modified, in poor condition, leaking hydraulic fluid, or unstable due to loose or missing components. Make corrections before using. • Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. • User and bystanders wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards. • Do not use jack beyond its rated capacity. Do not shock load. • This is a lifting device only. Immediately after lifting, support the vehicle with jack stands capable of sustaining the load before working on the vehicle. • Use only on a hard level surface free from obstructions so the jack is free to reposition itself during lifting and lowering operations. • Center load on saddle. Be sure setup is stable before working on vehicle. • Do not move or dolly the vehicle while on the jack. • Do not use any materials that may serve as risers, spacers or extenders between the stock lifting saddle and the load. • Do not use any adaptors that replace the stock lifting saddle unless approved or supplied by the jack manufacturer. • Always lower the jack slowly and carefully. • This product may contain one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. • Failure to heed these warnings may result in fatal personal injury and/or property damage. CONSEQUENCES OF NOT AVOIDING HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS Failure to read this manual completely and thoroughly, failure to understand its OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, SAFETY WARNINGS, MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS and comply with them, and failure to comply with the METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS could cause accidents resulting in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage. WARNING: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING KTI63133 3 rev. 08/13/14 INSPECTION Visual inspection should be made before each use of the jack, checking for leaking hydraulic fluid and damaged, loose or missing parts. Any jack which appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE until necessary repairs are made. SETUP 1. Remove the 2-piece handle from box. Insert the smaller diameter end of the upper handle into the lower handle end with hole. Align the holes in the upper and lower handles and secure them with the hex head screw provided. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREW as it could strip the threads in the lower handle. 2. Grease the inside of the handle yoke so the handle will rotate freely inside the yoke. Remove the handle yoke screw. Insert the end of the lower handle all the way in the handle yoke until it engages the release valve assembly. Secure the handle in the handle yoke by reinstalling the handle yoke screw and tightening the screw. Rotate the handle to see if it is rotating the release valve assembly. Pull on the handle to make sure it is secured in the handle yoke. If the release valve assembly is not rotating and/or the handle pulls out of the handle yoke, repeat step 2. 3. IMPORTANT: In most cases the jack should work normally right out of the box but it is not unusual for air to get trapped in the jack’s hydraulic system during shipping and handling. There are several symptoms of an air trapped hydraulic system which include only partial incremental pump stroke, jack will not lift load, jack will not sustain load or pumping feels spongy under load. The following procedure will purge air from the hydraulic system and only needs to be done if experiencing the above mentioned conditions. a. With the lift arm in its completely retracted position and the pump handle rotated all the way in a clockwise direction until it stops, rotate the pump handle in a counterclockwise direction two full revolutions. b. Proceed to pump the jack 15 full incremental pump strokes. c. Rotate the pump handle clockwise until it stops and proceed to pump the handle until the lift arm reaches maximum height. d. Repeat steps "A" through "C" until all air is purged from the system. IMPORTANT: Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
