Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com SERVICING & REPAIRS 1. Check the jack for damage before use and DO NOT use if damaged. Any damage should be properly repaired or the defective part replaced. If in doubt, DO NOT use. Do not use if an oil leak is apparent. Consult your local dealer. 2. ALWAYS use spare parts supplied by CLARKE International. Using non- standard parts could be extremely dangerous. 3. Ensure that the jack is properly maintained at all times and that no corrosion or other damage is allowed to weaken any part of it. DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the jack. 4. When necessary, have your jack serviced or repaired by a qualified technician using identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the jack is maintained. 5. NEVER use the jack if it has been subjected to excess load (over 680 kg) or shock. The jack should be removed from service immediately and fully inspected by qualified personnel and passed as serviceable before being used again. 6. Please keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION One of the most damaging sources of environmental pollution is oil products. Never throw away used hydraulic oil with domestic refuse or flush it down a sink or drain. Collect any hydraulic oil in a leak proof container and take it to your local waste disposal site. If disposing of this product or any damaged components, do not dispose of with general waste. This product contains valuable raw materials and should be taken to your local civic amenity site for recycling of metal products.

In this case the jack may require purging. If the jack does not reach its full height, the oil level may require topping up as described in the Maintenance section.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com OPERATION Before use, visually inspect the jack for distortion of parts, cracked welds, damaged castors, oil leaks, or any other sign of damage. Should any of these be apparent, have the jack inspected and repaired by a qualified technician before putting back into use. 1. With the jack on the floor, hold the operating pedal down to release the pedal locking hook. 2. Pull out the locking pin from the frame. 3. Open the release valve by turning the thumb-wheel counter- clockwise. 4. Expand the jack beams apart by hand, enough to position around the vehicle tyre. 5. Close the release valve by turning the thumb-wheel clockwise until tight.
- Ensure the jack is parallel to the sidewall of the tyre. Leave clearance between the tyre wall and the jack frame. 6. Pump the operating pedal, depressing with smooth, even strokes of the foot until both rollers are in contact with the tyre tread. 7. Continue operating the foot pedal until the tyre is lifted from the ground and one of the locking pin locating holes is accessible. Replace the locking pin. 8. Always use the brakes on each of the front swiveling castors to prevent the vehicle moving unintentionally once supported clear of the ground. 9. Repeat the process with the other tyres and jacks (if purchased). Use two jacks to move the front or back of the vehicle. Use four jacks for complete mobility. 10. To lower the jack, remove the locking pin and open the release valve by turning the thumb-wheel slowly counter-clockwise. WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE STRICTLY FOLLOWED. NO RESPONSIBILITY CAN BE ACCEPTED FOR INCORRECT USE OF THE JACK
