These instructions have been written to help the user more effectively use and maintain OTC jacks. Some of the information applying to construction, installation, operation, inspection, and maintenance of hydraulic jacks was selected from ANSI B30.1 and ASME/ANSI PALD-1. It is strongly recommended that the user read these two documents, which may be ordered from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, United Engineering Center, 345 East 47th, New York, New York 10017.

Operating Instructions

WARNING: Failure to heed the following warnings can result in personal injury and/or equipment damage. These warnings cannot cover every situation. Have safety foremost in your mind when setting up a job.

Read, understand, and follow the operating instructions, and the ANSI B30.1 and ASME PALD-1 safety standards for jacks. If the operator cannot read English, operating instructions and safety precautions must be read and discussed in the operator's native language.
Wear eye protection that meets the requirements of ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA.
Inspect the jack before each use; do not use the jack if it is damaged, altered, or in poor condition.
To prevent tipping, set up the jack on a hard, level surface. Set vehicle parking brake and block tires.
The load must not exceed the rated lifting capacity of the jack. Lift only dead weight.
Center the load on the jack saddle, because off-center loads can damage seals and cause hydraulic failure.
Use the jack for lifting purposes only. This jack is designed to LIFT loads, NOT SUPPORT loads. Immediately support a lifted load with jack stands.
Stay clear of lifted loads.
Use only approved hydraulic fluid, such as Chevron AW Hydraulic Oil MV or equivalent.

Instructions

To raise the jack, use narrow end of jack handle to tighten release valve clockwise (CW). Insert handle into socket, and operate pump.
To lower the jack, slowly open the release valve knob by turning it counterclockwise (CCW).
To use the jack in a horizontal position, use Figure 1 to determine how to use the jack in a horizontal position.

Setup Guide

Ensure the area is clear of any obstructions and the surface is level.
Position the jack under the load, aligning the saddle with the lifting point.
Pump the handle to raise the jack until it contacts the load.
Continue pumping until the desired height is reached. Always use jack stands for added safety.
To lower the jack, slowly release the pressure by turning the release valve counterclockwise.

Troubleshooting

If the jack does not lift or lowers slowly,

Check for air in the hydraulic system and bleed it if necessary.
Ensure all connections are secure and there are no leaks in the system.
If the jack over-extends or shows signs of instability, stop immediately and reposition it.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines to avoid accidents.

Regular maintenance includes checking for wear and tear, lubricating moving parts, and ensuring all safety features are functioning correctly.
