    What to do if my Power Fist 8667883 Jacks will not lift load?
    • K
      Kimberly BrightAug 6, 2025
      If your Power Fist Jack won't lift the load, ensure the release valve is firmly closed. It may also be due to an overload, in which case you'll need a transmission jack with a greater weight capacity. Trapped air in the system can also be the culprit; bleed the hydraulic system to remove any air.

    What to do if Power Fist Jacks will lift, but will not maintain pressure?

      Teresa MyersAug 14, 2025
      If your Power Fist Jack lifts but doesn't maintain pressure, make sure the release valve is tightly closed. An overload condition could also be the cause, so remedy the overload. If neither of these solutions works, the hydraulic unit may be malfunctioning, and you should contact Princess Auto.

    Why Power Fist 8667883 Jacks has poor lift performance?
    • L
      Linda BrownAug 21, 2025
      For poor lift performance with your Power Fist Jacks, start by bleeding the hydraulic system to remove any trapped air. Also, check the hydraulic oil level and add oil to the proper level if it's too low.

    How to fix Power Fist 8667883 Jacks that will not lower after loading?

      If your Power Fist Jacks will not lower after loading, it might be because the reservoir is overfilled. Drain the oil to the proper level. Alternatively, the linkages may be binding, so clean and lubricate all moving parts.
