Way back when, in one or more newsgroups, I suggested the blue 3.5 ton quick rise jack as sold by Sam's Club, to those who were looking for a cheap, functional, and strong floor jack for home use. I wanted to offer some tips I recently discovered when confronted with the problem of fixing or replacing mine due to low fluid level.

It should be noted that I didn't 'fix' it per se, but gave it a longer life. The seals, even if available, wouldn't be worth spending money on when this jack only leaks fluid a couple drops per year. Here's a pic I found so you know which jack I'm talking about: Having topped off hydraulic jacks and other types of chambers before, this one turned out to be a bit more diffcult to fill than in past experiences. The symptom was that the jack would 'quick rise' OK, but after about 8' of loaded lifting, the functional stroke of the handle would start decreasing, and by the time it was near fully lifted, there would hardly be any stroke left.

Here's how to refill it (there may be easier ways but I couldn't get it to work any other way): 1) Locate the magnetic parts bin and remove it from the jack frame. This will uncover the three threaded plugs that are used to adjust or service the jack. Look for the one 'by itself'. IOW, two will be close together, and the third one will be spaced apart from them.

Aquire at least one pint of new hydraulic jack oil. Don safety apparel and position the jack over some rags or something very absorbant. With the jack pad down and the handle valve released, unscrew this plug, accurately counting the turns until it is completely unthreaded. Do this slowly as fluid will come out under slight pressure; it will make a mess. If you pulled out the correct plug, it will have a small tip on the end of it that engages with a spring inside the plug hole. Be sure to remember the number of turns. Mine was threaded about 6.5 turns.

2) Kneel on the jack frame or otherwise keep it from lifting off the ground, then grab the lift pad/saddle with one hand while holding the oil bottle in the other hand. Keep in mind that as you lift the pad through it's arc, there are braces going through complex motions, so keep your fingers clear of this potentially pinchy situation. To avoid moving parts, you can grab only the pad and lift up this way, since it is made to stay in place (unlike with most jack saddles that are designed to interchange easily). 3) Very slowly lift the pad while drizzling oil into the plug hole.

As you lift the pad/arm, the fluid level will lower in this hole. If you hear an 'air sucking' noise, you went too fast and/or didn't add enough oil. Slower is better here. 4) Once you reach the top of the arm's range, you can push it slightly further and it will go into the 'service lock' position. This will hold it up while you complete step 4.

Now reinstall the plug temporarily, atleast a few turns to make sure it doesn't leak. 5) 'Unlock' the arm and let it fall to the bottom under it's own weight and return spring pressure. Tighten the handle valve. Put pressure on the pad with one hand so the quick lift feature doesn't engage, and pump the jack up as high as it will go before the stroke becomes less than 100% effective. 6) Postured as you were in step 2, grab the pad with one hand and keep it in this position. Now open the handle valve with the other hand and lower the handle to the floor if it isn't there already.

Remove the plug again while still holding the pad at this height. Repeat steps 3 through 6 until you find that the jack exhibits 100% strokes all the way up to full loaded position. This took me more steps than I cared to count, but probably because of all the trial and error. I would think you vould get it done in about 10 steps. It might take 1/2 hour at worst.

Remove the disk and clean it off thoroughly. Behind the microswitch itself, there is a Styrofoam disk, whose size is roughly four inches thick. E15 Video Tutorial. Bosch dishwasher machine manual. Replace the disk in its place, and reassemble the machine. The machine should now function as normal, and the E15 error code should now disappear.
