6.2 Jack stand

1. Insert the post [1] into the base [3].

2. Turn the holding lever [2] upwards, set the post at the appropriate height, and turn the holding lever down

again to secure the post. Never use the jack with the holding lever upwards and always set both stands to

the same height!

3. Repeat above procedure for the second stand. The second stand must be set to the same height as the

first.

4. Lift the vehicle by means of a suitable jack.

5. Locate the supporting points of the vehicle (refer to the vehicle’s user manual) and make sure they are

compatible with the saddle of the jack stand. Do not use the jack stand if saddle and supporting points are

not compatible to avoid structural damage to vehicle and/or stand.

6. Position the jack stands under the vehicle, saddles lined up with the supporting points. All supports of the

stand must make full contact with the surface. Make sure the surface is strong enough to carry the weight

of the stand and its load; never use the stands on a slope.

7. Slowly lower the vehicle onto the jack stands. Check again to make sure that they are positioned correctly

before completely lowering the vehicle.

8. Remove the jack.

9. Gently rock the vehicle in all directions to make sure the vehicle is stable and jack stands are applied

correctly.

10. When finished working, clear the area under the vehicle and lift the vehicle with a suitable jack so the jack

stands can be removed.

11. Lower the vehicle onto its wheels.

6.3 Car creeper

1. Slide the couplings [b] over the frame of the car creeper (opposite side of the head rest [a]). Align the

holes in the couplings and the frame and insert the included bolts (2 per coupling). Tighten the nuts.

2. Slide the other part of the car creeper into the couplings, insert the included bolts (2 per coupling) and

tighten the nuts.

3. Mount the 4 castors [c]; refer to the image on page 2 for their location.

7. Care and maintenance

1. When the jack is not in use or for storage, lower the saddle completely to prevent corrosion. Always store

the floor jack in a horizontal position to avoid oil leakage.

2. Keep the jack and jack stands clean and keep all moving parts well lubricated. Remove excessive grease

and dirt from the outside.

3. The jack contains about 7 fl.oz (± 210 ml) oil (SAE5W). To check the oil level, lower the saddle [A]

completely and open the oil filler plug [J] under the cover plate [C]. Add oil when the oil level is

½" (12 mm) under the plug hole.

4. The oil should be replaced once a year. To replace the oil, open the oil filler plug [J] and remove the

release valve [E] completely by turning it counter-clockwise. Be careful not to contaminate the inside of

the hydraulic system! Remove and refill via the oil filler plug hole.

Notes:

o Use of improper oil or other fluids can cause serious damage to the internal parts of the jack!

o Take appropriate safety measurements when handling oil.

o Dispose of used oil in accordance with local regulations.

5. Re-install and close the release valve [E] completely.

6. Pull the saddle [A] all the way up, then open the release valve [E] to lower the saddle. Force the saddle to

lower faster. Close the release valve [E] and repeat this procedure a couple of times to ensure proper oil

distribution.

8. Troubleshooting

Jack will not raise / lift load / lift load to full height

Jack lowers under load

• The weight of the load is higher than 2 tonnes. Use a suitable jack.

• The release valve is open. Close it tightly by turning it clockwise. Check whether dirt prevents the release

valve to be closed completely. Remove the release valve and clean it.

• Check the oil level and add/replace oil when necessary (see §7).

• Remove air from the hydraulic system (see §6.1: Before use).

• If the above steps do not solve the problem, there is something wrong with the hydraulic system itself.

Contact your local dealer for service and support.

Jack will not lower

• When there is a load on the jack and it will not lower, remove the load by carefully lifting it with a second

jack.

• Never apply excessive force (e.g. use a hammer) on the saddle to lower it.

• Check the spring that pulls the lifting arm down. Replace when broken or re-attach when loose.
