      If the handle of your Pittsburgh jack moves up when the jack is under load, it indicates that the valves might be blocked and not closing fully. To resolve this, flush the valves by following these steps: 1. Lower the Saddle and securely close the Release Valve. 2. Manually lift the saddle several inches. 3. Open the release valve by turning the Handle counterclockwise and force the saddle down as quickly as possible.
