Configuració i preparació inicial
Before first use, or if the jack has been stored for an extended period, it is important to bleed any air from the hydraulic system to ensure proper operation. Air in the system can cause the jack to lift unevenly or not lift at all.
Bleeding the Hydraulic System:
- Locate the release valve. This is typically a screw or knob that controls the lowering function.
- Inseriu el mànec a l'endoll del mànec.
- Gireu la maneta en sentit antihorari per obrir completament la vàlvula d'alliberament.
- Pump the handle fully up and down approximately 10-15 times to force any trapped air out of the system.
- Gireu el mànec en sentit horari per tancar la vàlvula d'alliberament.
- Test the jack by pumping the handle to raise the saddle. It should raise smoothly and evenly. If not, repeat the bleeding process.
