SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not exceed the rated capacity of the jack.
2. Do not allow personnel to operate the jack unless they have read these
safety precautions.
3. Do not operate the jack if damaged.
4. Use the jack in a suitable, well lit work area.
5. Keep the work area clean and tidy and free from unrelated items.
6. Only use the jack on level and solid ground, preferably concrete. Avoid
soft/unmade ground as the jack may sink in.
7. Ensure non-essential persons keep a safe distance whilst the jack is in use.
8. Ensure there are no personnel or obstructions under the vehicle before
lowering.
9. Do not work under the vehicle until it is fully supported by axle stands.
10. Keep hands etc clear of the vehicle until lifting is complete.
11. Ensure that you can see the saddle and jacking point throughout the
jacking operation in case there is any relative movement.
12. Always ensure that the jack saddle is centred and stable on the lifting point
before lifting and position the jack to avoid operating it from under the
vehicle.
13. Check the vehicle weight and recommended lifting points by referring to
the vehicle owners manual. Ensure the lifting point is not corroded.
14. Never tamper with the jack or modify it in any way, as this could prove to
be dangerous and will invalidate the guarantee. Only use the jack for the
purpose for which it is intended.
15. Use appropriate safety equipment, such as protective footwear, when
using this jack.
16. Ensure that the jack is properly maintained and lubricated at all times, and
that no corrosion is allowed to weaken any part of it.
17. If the jack has been subjected to an abnormal load or shock, it should be
removed from service immediately and fully inspected by qualified
personnel, and passed as serviceable, before being used again.
18. When not in use, store the jack, fully lowered, in a safe, dry, childproof area.
19. Always inspect the jack before use. Ensure that all parts are in good
condition and operating smoothly, and that no cracks or distortion is
apparent. If in doubt do not use.

20. Never push a vehicle off the jack or start the engine while supported only
by the jack.
21. Do not use if an oil leak is apparent. Consult the Clarke Service
Department.
22. If more than one jack is used in unison, they must all be of the same rating
and be raised at the same speed to reduce the possibility of the load
slipping.
SAFETY SYMBOLS
The following safety symbols may be found on the product.
Read the user manual before use.
LIFTING OPERATIONS AND LIFTING EQUIPMENT REGULATIONS 1998
This jack, depending on use, may fall within the scope of LOLER. It is the
owner’s responsibility to determine whether or not it does and, if so, to comply
with any applicable requirements in LOLER, for having the jack thoroughly
examined.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
1. Take care to ensure that if hydraulic oil is spilt that it is cleaned away using
sand or treated with absorbent granules designed for the purpose.
2. Always make every effort to contain any spillage and prevent ingress into
the local water course.

PRODUCT FEATURES
(CTBJ12 shown)
UNPACKING
During transit or storage, it is possible that an air pocket may have developed
within the hydraulic ram, and the ram action may therefore appear to be
‘spongy’. In this case the jack may require purging as described on page 7.
If the column does not reach its full height, the ram oil level may require
topping up, as described in the Maintenance section.

OPERATION
RAISING A VEHICLE
1. Ensure the vehicle is stable and is on firm level ground with the wheels
chocked before positioning the jack so that is directly beneath the lifting
point. DO NOT rely upon the vehicle handbrake alone to prevent vehicle
movement.
2. Ensure the jack is on solid ground. If not, place a suitable piece of solid
wood of sufficient size to provide adequate support beneath the jack.
3. Consult the vehicle owners manual to ascertain the location of suitable
jacking points and position the jack beneath the designated lifting point.
4. Locate the slotted end of the jack handle on to the release valve and turn
fully clockwise to close the valve.
5. Set the screw extension (CTB10 & 12 models) in contact with the lifting
point. Pump the handle and raise the ram so that the jack and lifting point
are in full contact. Before proceeding further, make one final check to
ensure that:
• the jack is completely vertical and stable.
• there are no obstructions to the lift and that the handle can move
freely up and down.
• all personnel are in a safe position.
6. When satisfied, continue to pump the handle and lift the load to the height
required.
7. NEVER allow anyone to get beneath the load until it is firmly supported on
suitable, properly rated axle stands.
LOWERING THE VEHICLE
1. The lowering speed is controlled by the amount you turn the release valve.
With the axle stands removed, check to ensure that there are no personnel
WARNING: ENSURE THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE STRICTLY FOLLOWED.
NO RESPONSIBILITY CAN BE ACCEPTED FOR INCORRECT USE OF THE
JACK
WARNING: ALWAYS LOWER IN A SLOW AND CONTROLLED MANNER, AND
CHECK THAT THERE ARE NO OBSTACLES IN THE PATH OF THE LOAD’S
DESCENT. BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN LOWERING HEAVY LOADS.

in the immediate vicinity before removing the handle from its housing, and
engaging it with the release valve.
2. Very slowly turn the handle anticlockwise to open the release valve, and
allow the jack to lower the load, under complete control. NEVER, under
any circumstances, jerk the valve open.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: Only fully qualified personnel should attempt to repair the jack.
INSPECTION
1. Always visually inspect the jack before use, to ensure that all parts are
correctly located and secure. Check for hydraulic leaks, signs of damage
or worn parts. Do not use the jack unless it is perfectly serviceable.
• A slight dampness on the ram is normal, but where leakage is found,
the ram seals must be renewed by your Clarke Spares Department.
2. The jack should be fully inspected annually as follows:
• Check for cracks and deformation of components.
• Check operation and top up the oil level. (see below).
• Remove completely, any rust or corrosion and repaint to prevent
further corrosion.
• Ensure that all decals and warning notices are in place and legible.
3. After use, store the jack with the ram in its lowest position. This not only
relieves the hydraulic ram, but also prevents any possibility of corrosion to
the ram.
4. Do not leave the jack in the open, exposed to the weather. Keep under
cover. If stored for long periods, inspect before use, clean, and re-oil. For
servicing, contact your CLARKE dealer or CLARKE Service dept.
TOPPING UP THE OIL
It may be necessary from time to time to top up the hydraulic oil level.
Proceed as follows.
1. Turn the release valve counterclockwise and allow the ram to retract to its
lowest position.
• It may be necessary to apply force to the saddle for lowering
without any weight on the jack.
2. With the jack in the level position, remove the filler plug and stand upright.
• The oil should be level with the bottom of the oil filler hole.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com
3. If below this, top up.
4. Do not overfill. Only use the correct type of oil such as Clarke hydraulic oil
(part number 3050830).
5. Replace the filler plug.
6. Check the jack for correct operation and purge any air from the system as
described below.
PURGING AIR FROM THE JACK
1. Turn the release valve counterclockwise one full turn to open.
2. Pump the handle eight full strokes.
3. Turn the release valve clockwise to close the valve.
4. Pump the handle until the ram reaches maximum height and continue to
pump several times to remove trapped air.
5. Turn the release valve counterclockwise one full turn and lower the ram to
its lowest position. Apply pressure if necessary.
6. Turn the release valve clockwise to the closed position and check for
correct operation. It may be necessary to perform the procedure more
than once to evacuate all the air.
