"L7C bulk buy jack" servicing
Discussion
Sorry for posting this here, but as I'm not a member any more...
Anyone got experience with servicing the aforementioned jack?
Mine has given many years service until yesterday when it piddled all its oil on the ground. To be fair I had something a bit too heavy on it and I fully extended it!
I think I have some O-rings for the purpose, but anyone done this before?
Cheers

PS I'd rather talk about the jack than the merits of blatchat and membership! Cheers!!

I have just done mine & it's like new again, quick lift works again and pumps up really quickly.
It requires a bit of faffing about because the two sides of the jack have to be separated to get the pump out. Replaced the 2 'O' rings on the main piston they had disintegrated but I do use the jack a lot. There was very little hydraulic oil in it when I drained it so that would not have helped.
If you let me have your email I will send you Norman's original instructions.
