Operating of the car jack
Lifting the vehicle
– Place the car jack underneath the vehicle to be lifted, under
the respective car jack bracket (refer to your vehicle's owner's
manual). Pump the lever bar until the saddle is just below the
jacking point.
If necessary, turn the expansion screw
1
out of the piston by
turning it counterclockwise until it touches the vehicle. In this
way, the exact jacking point can be determined.
– Pump the car jack (to lift the vehicle) to the desired height.
You can subsequently adjust the height of the stroke piston
2
with the extension screw
1
if desired. The screw must be
unscrewed for this purpose.
WARNING!
Before starting work on the vehicle, always support the vehicle on
the axles.
Lowering the vehicle
CAUTION!
Before the vehicle is lowered again, the supports of the axles must
be removed.
Lift the vehicle with the car jack far enough to enable a removal
of the supports. Finally, open the release valve using the pump
lever
6
. This is done by slowly turning it counterclockwise.
The car jack will now return to the lowered position.
When the vehicle is lowered and the stroke piston is still extended,
press it down by hand.
Afterwards, close the release valve again.
