OPERATION
MOUNTING THE LEVER
• Slide both parts of the lever into each other and
secure them with the pin supplied.
• Put the lever in the proper hole and secure the lever
with the screw.
LIFTING
• Turn the lever clockwise as far as possible. The rolley
jack is now ready to lift.
• Put the rolley jack horizontally on a flat surface and
start pumping by moving the lever up and down. Instal
the jack in the right place (indicated by the car manu-
facturer).
SHAFT SUPPORTS
• After jacking up the car the shaft supports should be
installed.
• Lower the car by turning the lever anticlockwise,
until the car rests on the supports. Never work
under a car which only rests on the rolley jack.
LOWERING
• After the work is finished, the car is lifted again until
the shaft supports are clear. Remove the shaft sup-
ports. Turn the lever anticlockwise and the car will be
lowered. The further the lever is turned anticlock-
wise the faster the car will be lowered.
TROUBLESHOOTING
In case the jack does not work well, we give you subjoi-
ned some possible causes and their solutions:
1. Rolley jack does not lift
• Lever has not been turned clockwise.
Turn lever clockwise.
• Not enough oil in rolley jack.
Refill oil.
• Defective or dirty valve.
Charge or clean valve.
• Worn gaskets.
Change gaskets.
2. Jack only lifts as far as half the maximum
height
• Not enough oil in the tank.
Refill oil.
3. Rolley jack comes down after lifting
• Defective or dirty valve.
Change or clean valve.
• Defective piston packing.
Change packing.
4. Rolley jack does not rise fast enough
• Defective plunger packing.

MAINTANANCE
Regular maintenance of your rolley jack prevenst
problems.
• Once a month the weels, shafts and piston rods
should be lubricated with lubricating oil or grease on
the pivots of the lifting rods.
• The tank containing hydraulic oil is a closed tank
which usually does not require mainte nance. At least
on ce a year, the oil should be changed. For this pur-
pose 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.
