Troubleshooting

Jack fails to lift or lifts slowly

Check hydraulic fluid level and condition. Ensure the release valve is fully closed. Inspect for any oil leaks around seals or fittings.

Ram does not retract fully

Ensure the release valve is fully open. Check for obstructions preventing retraction. Inspect seals for damage.

Oil leakage from seals

Inspect seals for wear or damage. Tighten any accessible fittings. If leakage persists, seals may need replacement.

Jack is unstable during operation

Confirm the jack is on a solid, level surface. Ensure the load is centered and stable on the saddle. Do not operate on uneven ground.
