Installing the Hydraulic Elbow Fittings
You need to install one Hydraulic Elbow Fitting on each Hydraulic Cylinder.
To install a Hydraulic Elbow Fitting:
1. Remove the shipping plug from the Hydraulic Cylinder Port using a 6 mm hex key.
2. Get an Hydraulic Elbow Fitting from the QuickJack Assembly Kit; screw the O-ring fitting end into
the Hydraulic Cylinder Port.
Tip Raising the QuickJack Frame and putting a Lift Block under it or manually raising
the Platform to a locking position can provide a little bit of extra room, making it
easier to secure the Hydraulic Elbow Fitting.
Important: Do
not
use Thread Seal Tape on either end of the Hydraulic Elbow Fitting.
3. Position the threaded fitting end as shown above; accessible but not pointed up.
You want the threaded fitting end accessible but
not
pointed up, as the Short Hydraulic Hose
would then angle up and could possibly impact the underside of a Vehicle.
4. Tighten the fitting nut to 11 to 12 lbf-ft / 14 to 16 N-m.
5. Perform the same process for the Hydraulic Cylinder on the other QuickJack Frame.
