9.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or
across Jack or Jack Stands under a load.
Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords and air hoses
periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician. The
handle must be kept clean, dry, and free from oil and grease at all times.
10. Disconnect air supply. Disconnect air hose when not in use.
11. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the controls are in the neutral position when
not in use and before plugging in. Do not move any tool while touching the controls,
whether it is connected to the air or not.
12. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool
when you are tired.
13. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts
or mounting fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician.
Do not use the tool if the controls do not operate properly.
14. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
15. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use accessories
intended for use with this tool. Approved accessories are available from Harbor Freight
Tools.
16. Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning
labels if taking prescription medicine to determine if your judgement or reflexes are
impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.
17. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required for the air
compressor, it must be of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the
compressor without heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch
fire, or cause electrical damage to the compressor. Check your air compressor’s
manual for the appropriate size cord.
18. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a
qualified technician.
19. Compressed air only. Never use combustible gas as a power source.
Note: Performance of the compressor (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending on
variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool performance.
Warning:The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be under-
stood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be
built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

Specific Jack Safety Instructions
Warning!! Stand clear of the Jack when raising or lowering a vehicle.
1.
Jack Capacity. Never exceed the Jack’s capacity of 25 Tons (Stage 2) or 50 Tons
(Stage 1). Check the vehicle’s owner’s manual to determine the actual gross weight of
your vehicle before attempting to lift it. Never attempt to lift a load greater than 25 Tons
above the Stage 1 level.
2.
3.
Never ride on the Jack. Never ride on the Jack, and never have people or pets in the
vehicle you are raising.
Only use Jack to raise/lower vehicle. After raising the vehicle, use jack stands to keep
the vehicle suspended for any period of time. Do not work on, around, or under the
vehicle while it is supported by the Jack.
4.
Place Jack on correct surface. Only use this Jack on a stable, smooth, level,
clean, and dry surface that is capable of sustaining the load (ie.thick cured concrete
or thick steel). This Jack has exposed hoses in its undercarriage.
5.
6.
Stabilize the load. Ensure that the load remains stable at all times.
Vehicle lifting. When lifting a vehicle, apply the emergency brake and block all of the
wheels that will remain on the ground.
7.
8.
9.
Center load. Center the load on the Jack Ram (2). Off-center loads can damage seals,
causing Jack failure.
Lift only using correct vehicle lift points. Read the vehicle manual to find the proper
lifting points for the vehicle.
Never use the Jack unless it is filled with hydraulic fluid. Filling with hydraulic fluid
is covered in the maintenance section of this manual.
10. NEVER USE THIS JACK FOR AIRCRAFT PURPOSES.
11. Industrial applications must follow OSHA requirements.
12. Never move jack when under load. The wheels are intended for NO LOAD movement
only.

Warning! The Jack and vehicle being lifted must be stable when lifted so they do not
fall and cause personal injury. Keep spectators away from the work area. Read
the vehicle manual to find the proper lifting points for the vehicle.
1.
Position the Jack under the vehicle to be lifted is at one of the recommended lifting
points. Connect to the air source and turn on the compressor. Turn the Lever (27) to
the right toward the UP arrow on the Controls (see FIGURE 1 on page 5). Lift the load
slightly and check that the load is stable on the jack. If not, lower the load and check
that the vehicle has no load on it and that the jack is in the proper position. Allow the
Jack to rise to the desired level, and then move the Lever (27) into the neutral position
between the UP and DOWN positions (shown in FIGURE 1).
2.
Place jack stands (not included) under the vehicle before attempting to do any
work on, in, under, or around the vehicle.

Operation (continued)
Lowering the Vehicle
1.
First, clear any tools or equipment from under the vehicle. Make sure there are no
obstructions and that people are at a safe distance from the vehicle.
Note: Position yourself safely so that your body is not under any part of the
vehicle before lowering the Jack or removing the jack stands.
2.
Position the Jack so that the Ram (2) is at one of the recommended lifting points.
Turn the Lever (27) to the right toward the UP arrow on the Controls (see FIGURE 1 on
page 5). Raise the Jack just enough so that you can remove the jack stands. Then,
turn back the Lever (27) to the neutral position and remove the jack stands.
3.
4.
Lower the load slowly in a controlled fashion: Turn the Lever (27) slightly to the left
toward the DOWN arrow on the Controls (see FIGURE 1 on page 5), and allow the load
to lower slowly.
Remove the Jack from under the vehicle. Disconnect the air supply.
Maintenance
1.
2.
3.
Keep the Jack clean and dry. When not in use, store in a dry location to inhibit rust.
Always lock up equipment and keep out of reach of children.
Have a qualified service technician periodically dismantle and lubricate the handle
assembly and all lift arm linkages.
Before each use, check the oil level through the oil plug hole shown in FIGURE 4 below.
Make sure it is full before each use. Fill oil if necessary by removing the Oil Plug (26).
Watch for hydraulic oil leaks. If leaks are present, contact a qualified service techni-
cian. Have a qualified service technician change the oil and lubricate the Jack annu-
ally.
