MAINTENANCE

1. Inspect and replace damaged, kinked, twisted, stretched or rusty chain.

2. Inspect hoses and connections. Replace damage components immediately with Jackco

replacement parts only.

3. Tighten connections as needed. Use non-hardening pipe thread compound when servicing

connections.

equivalent.

Lubrication

Use a light machine oil to lubricate pivot points, hinges and all joints of post that move under heavy load.
