Before each use, check the vehicle lift to ensure it is not damaged or worn. If in any doubt

DO NOT use the unit. Remove it from

service immediately and contact your local Sealey dealer for advice/repairs.

7.2.

Refilling the hydraulic system with oil is rarely necessary but the level should be checked in the event of a loss of performance. To

check oil level, ensure the ram is fully lowered, remove filler plug and check that level is within10mm of filler hole. Add a good quality

jack oil, such as SEALEY HYdRAuLIc JAcK OIL.

7.3. change the oil every 100 working hours.

WARNING: DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than hydraulic jack oil as this will cause serious damage to the jack

and will invalidate the warranty!
