Product Manual

1. Whilst the vehicle is in ‘PARK’, with
the hand brake on, securely chock
wheels on side of vehicle opposite
to that being lifted. If vehicle is
manual, leave in neutral.
2. Select the most appropriate
position for raising the vehicle.
Always consider the impact it will
have on the vehicle during the
lifting process. Ensure the area is
free of sharp objects and clear of
hot exhaust pipes and mufflers.
3. After safely positioning the Exhaust
Recovery Jack, connect the short
extension hose to the Exhaust
Recovery Jack. Ensure that the
protective mat is placed on top of
the Exhaust Recovery Jack as an
additional precaution to avoid any
damage from sharp objects.
4. Connect the longer hose with
exhaust cone ensuring to remove
any kinks. If you are using an
air compressor please refer to
separate instructions included
in kit.
5. Start engine and while idling,
press the black exhaust cone
over the end of the tail pipe.
Partially inflate then check that
the Exhaust Recovery Jack is
positioned squarely under the
body of the vehicle.
6. Once the Exhaust Recovery
Jack has inflated sufficiently so
that the wheel is clear off the
ground, stop further inflation
by switching the vehicle off or
by removing the exhaust cone.
NOTE: If the Exhaust Recovery
Jack does not fully inflate check
the exhaust system for leaks.
7. To deflate, turn the air valve
anticlockwise, and remove hose
slowly from the connection.
WARNING: If this procedure is done
too quickly, it will cause a rapid
deflation of the Exhaust Recovery
Jack, resulting in an uncontrolled
lowering of the vehicle.
