Nice job. I’d like to add a tip for you guys. Save a bit of mess. When the Jack oil container is spout up, squeeze the bottle to push out air. Then when you tip the bottle up to line up with the filler hole release the pressure on the bottle. This way it sucks air back in the bottle and prevents it spilling out all over the Jack. Then when it had finished sucking in the air, you can squeeze gently and top up your oil level. Hope that helps. Works filling any kind of oil reservoir, but especially with the nozzle type tips like on the Jack oil.

Great tip but for those that are less coordinated, you could also use a large clean syringe to transfer oil from the bottle to the jack.

I have an old floor jack that's over 30 years old. It spent most of the last 20 years outside usually under a car. It quit working today even though it was full of oil. It has foam in it and I decided to drain it it appeared as though it had water in it. After draining and refilling it, I pumped at several times to get the air out. It would not jack up, I watched your video and saw you lift it by hand slowly and put it back down. Pump to get the air out again this time when I tightened it, the Jack pumped up thanks for the video, looking it up by hand was what I was missing. 6:16

@glennarnold36673 жыл бұрын
CAUTION! At 7:28 the video demonstrates pulling the jack upward to pump the fluid. The jack return spring is powerful enough to pull the jack down with force, and spews a jet of hydraulic oil out of the hole, which can get in your eyes. I recommend not doing that.
@joeypencil53683 жыл бұрын
The way he was pulling the jack upward already says that it can snap back down with such force that it can send you back to your ancestors' era 🤣 This is definitely a useful note.

there is a second screw on the right side of the jack (you can clearly see it at 11:00 of the video). What that screw is supposed to do? Does it have to stay all closed or maybe it has tu be tuned? thank you anyone can give me the answer
@Appoloimperial Жыл бұрын
I think that jack would have had a red plastic cap over that screw originally that says, "CAUTION - DO NOT ADJUST". Factory setting that should be left alone. Don't know exactly why, or what it does, but doesn't seem that you should try tuning it.

I don't disrespectful but the problem of us manufacturing is that even when they were making TVs they will fail and that's why the Asian markets started getting a lot of their supply also they will make things cheaper cuz it has slave labor labor people that just worked on the complexes all day when almost no pain and very little food so I suppose the person making something for so many years what kind of know how to make it correctly even if they're forced to do it
