CAREFULLY READ THE INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE YOU USE THE ROLLEY JACK!
1. SPECIAL SAFETY RULES
Non-observance of the following instructions
can cause personal injuries and/or damage to
the vehicle.
1. Place the saddle of the jack only in the spot designed
for this purpose. For the relevant jacking points ple-
ase refer to your car instructions.
2. The maximum load indicated on the jack must never
be exceeded.
3. The jack must be used as a lifting device only.
4. Always place the jack on a hard and level surface.
5. Always protect the car from rolling away. Before jac-
king up the car, place chocks behind and in front of
the wheels remaining on the ground, if necessary. Put
the car in first gear or put on the handbrake to further
block the car.
6. Make sure to place the jack in such a way that your
hand is not underneath the car when jacking it up.
7. Make sure the jack is horizontal.
8. For your own safety, before working or crawling
underneath the car jack up the car and support the
shafts.
9. Before using the shaft supports make sure they are in
good condition.
2. OPERATION
1. LIFTING
Turn the screw of the relief valve clockwise as far as
possible. The trolley jack is now ready to lift.
Put the trolley jack horizontally on a flat surface, put
the lever in the proper hole and start pumping by
moving the lever up and down.
2. SHAFT SUPPORTS.
After jacking up the car the shaft supports should be
installed. Lower the car by turning the the screw of
the release valve anticlockwise, until the car rests on
the supports. Never work under a car which only
rests on the trolley jack.
3. LOWERING.
After the work is finished, the car is lifted again until
the shaft supports are clear. Remove the shaft sup-
ports. Turn the screw of the relief valve anticlock-
wise and the car will be lowered. The further the
screw is turned anticlockwise the faster the car will
be lowered.
3. MAINTENANCE
REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF YOUR TROLLEY
JACK PREVENTS PROBLEMS.
1. Once a month the wheels, shafts and piston rods
should be lubricated with lubricating oil and grease
on the pivots of the lifting rods.
2. The tank containing hydraulic oil is a closed tank
which usually does not require maintenance. When
frequently used, but at least on ce a year, the oil
should be changed. For this purpose the top of the
tank is fitted with an oil drain plug.
Only hydraulic oil should be used for refilling.
Do not use engine or brake fluid.
4. TROUBLESHOOTING
In case the trolley jack does not work well, we give you
subjoined some possible causes and their solutions:
1. Trolley jack does not lift.
Screw of the relief valve has not been turned clock-
wise.
- Turn screw clockwise.
Not enough oil in trolley jack.
- Remove the rubber cap on the top of the storage tank
and fill with oil.
Defective or dirty valve.
- Charge or clean valve.
Worn gaskets.
- Change gaskets.
Air in the hydraulic system.
- Open the relief valve by turning the screw to the left and
pull the lever upwards, by hand. Then lower it again.
The air will now disappear. If necessary, repeat this
operation.
2. Jack only lifts as far as half the maximum
height.
Not enough oil in the tank.
- Refill oil.
