OPERATION
1. Follow the instruction for removal and installation of
transmission, transfer case or transaxle according to
the vehicle manufacturer’s service manual.
2. Prior to initial use, jack up the Saddle and, using
the Release Knob, attempt to lower it. Doing so will
familiarize the user with the control functions and jack.
3. Once the vehicle is safely and properly secured,
position the Transmission Jack underneath the vehicle.
4. Pump the Handle to raise the jack to contact and
bear transmission weight. After making contact with
the transmission, make sure it is centered within the
brackets on the Saddle Plate. Use Adjustment Knobs
to position the Saddle Base.
5. After contact, lift the jack slightly to transfer the weight
of the transmission from the vehicle chassis to the
Transmission Jack.
6. Remove transmission fasteners, freeing it from the
vehicle. Make sure there is nothing to restrict the
movement of the transmission.
7. Back transmission away to free from engine.
8. Check the Saddle, making sure it is securely holding
and aligned with the transmission and not showing
any signs of stress. Carefully lower transmission and
Saddle by turning the Release Knob.
9. Secure the Chain tightly over the transmission and
safely move the Transmission Jack.
10. After removal, lower the jack to the lowest possible point.
WARNING: The jack is designed to lift loads only for
short periods of time. DO NOT use to suspend a load for
more than 30 minutes at a time.
11. To re-mount the transmission, reverse this procedure.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil.
Avoid mixing different types of fluid and NEVER use brake
fluid, turbine oil, transmission fluid, motor oil or glycerin.
Improper fluid can cause premature failure of the jack and
the potential for sudden and immediate loss of load.
ADDING OIL
1. With saddle fully lowered, set jack in its upright, level
position. Remove oil filler plug.
2. Fill until oil is level with the oil filler hole, reinstall oil
filler plug.
CHANGING OIL
For best performance and longest life, replace the
complete fluid supply at least once per year.
1. With saddle fully lowered, remove oil filler plug.
2. Lay the jack on its side and drain the fluid into a
suitable container.
