The use of portable automotive lifting devices is subject to certain
hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but
only by the exercise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It
is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in
the use and operation of equipment who are careful, competent,
trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the equipment and
its proper use. Examples of hazards are dropping, tipping, or
slipping of motor vehicles or their components caused primarily by
improperly securing loads, overloading, off-centered loads, use on
other than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose
for which it was not designed.
It is the responsibility of the owner to make sure all personnel read
this manual prior to using this device. It is also the responsibility of
the device owner to keep this manual intact and in a convenient
location for all to see and read. If the manual is lost or not legible,
contact Norco Industries, Inc. for a free replacement. If the operator
is not fluent in English, the product and safety instructions shall be
read to and discussed with the operator in the operator’s native
language by the purchaser/ owner or his designee, making sure
that the operator comprehends its contents.
WARNING
• DO NOT operate the foot pump after the ram has reached
its full extension! This may cause over-pressurization of
the hose and fittings causing fluid leakage.
• Adequately support the vehicle before starting repairs.
• Consult the in-ground or above-ground lift manufacturer for the
recommended support procedures and under hoist support
stand locating points.
• Support the engine with a support stand before unbolting the
transmission from the engine.
• Do not lift or support the vehicle with this jack.
• Do not use the jack beyond its rated capacity.
• Do not exceed 100 PSI air pressure.
• Be sure setup is stable and secure.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. IMPORTANT: Become familiar with the pedal operation of
the air/hydraulic foot pump before using the jack under load.
Depressing the foot pedal end marked “Pump” raises the jack. To
raise the jack a small distance it is necesary to use incremental
taps of your foot on the foot pedal until the jack reaches the desired
height. Lowering the jack is accomplished by depressing the foot
pedal end marked “Release”. The pump is equipped with a two
speed release mechanism. Gently depressing the foot pedal end
marked “Release” lowers the jack slower than if you depress the
pedal all the way down. If you want to lower the load slower than
the slow speed release, use gentle incremental taps of your foot
on the “Release” pedal.
2. Lift the vehicle to the desired work height and support the
vehicle in accordance with the lift manufacturer’s recommended
support procedure and the warnings given in this manual.
3. Use an under hoist stand rated greater than the weight the
engine to support the engine before unbolting the transmission
from the engine.
4. Position the transmission jack directly under the transmission.
Depress the foot pedal end marked “Pump” in order to raise the
saddle to a height very close to the center of balance point of the
transmission but do not touch the transmission.
