condition and operating smoothly, and that no cracks or distortion is

apparent. If in doubt do not use. Have the damaged parts replaced or

consult your CLARKE dealer.

4. Make sure that the jack is on a firm solid base, and there is no possibility of it

slipping when under load.

5. Make sure the load is taken by the full saddle and that the point of lift on

the load, is strong enough to support the load adequately.

6. Do not work under the raised vehicle until it is supported by suitable means

e.g. axle stands, NEVER rely on the jack to support the vehicle by itself.

7. Never push a load off the jack.

8. Ensure that all personnel are well clear of a load being raised or lowered.

9. Do not try to lift more then the rated load for the jack, (See “Specifications”

on page 2.)

OVERVIEW

BEFORE USE

ASSEMBLY

the handle socket.

2. Tighten the clamp bolt shown to

lock the handle in position.

LOCKING/RELEASING THE HANDLE

To lock the handle in the upright

position, put the handle lock in to the

‘Locked’ position as shown.

CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL

1. With the handle in a vertical

position, turn the knob on the

handle counterclockwise to open

the release valve.

position.

the hole.

5. Top up if necessary with Clarke

hydraulic oil available from your

local Clarke dealer (part number

BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

During transportation, air can get into the hydraulic system which will cause

the ram to feel "spongy".

1. Turn the knob on the handle

counterclockwise to open the

release valve.

2. Pump the foot pedal 10 times to

purge the air from the hydraulic

system.

• The jack is now ready to use.

POSITIONING THE JACK

• Make sure that the load is stable and on solid level ground.

• Use suitable wheel chocks to stop the vehicle from moving.

1. Put the handle lock in to the

‘Locked’ position as shown.

2. Turn the knob on the handle

counterclockwise to open the

release valve.

3. Put the saddle directly below the

lifting point of the vehicle (see the

manufacturers handbook for the

locations).

• Make sure that there is no

obstruction that will prevent a clean lift.

• Make sure that all personnel are in a safe position before you lift the

vehicle.

OPERATION

LIFTING

1. Turn the knob on the handle clockwise to close the release valve.

2. Put the handle lock in to the

‘Unlocked’ position as shown.

3. Operate the jack by pumping the

jack handle or foot pedal.

• Make sure that the saddle is in

full contact with the lifting point

and that there is nothing that

will prevent a clean lift.

4. Put axle stands below the support

points on the vehicle.

• Make sure that the axle stand is centred below the support point

and are stable before full weight of the vehicle is taken on it.

• Make sure that the axle stands are in good condition and that they

can hold the load.

• Ensure that the axle stands cannot move when supporting the load.

• DO NOT jerk the handle, make sure that it lowers slowly and in a

controlled manner on to the axle stands

LOWERING

1. Lift the vehicle to remove the weight from any supports.

2. Remove the axle stands or other supports from below the vehicle.

3. SLOWLY turn the knob on the handle counterclockwise to open the release

valve.

NOTE: This operation must be done very slowly and in full control.

DO NOT let the load lower suddenly, this could damage internal

components.

4. Remove the jack from below the vehicle.

NOTE: The jack can move slightly during operation. It is important that

the area is clean and free from all debris.

MAINTENANCE

1. When the jack is not in use, keep the ram fully lowered and the release

valve closed.

2. Keep the jack clean and apply lubricating oil to all pivot points every three

months.
