OK...so I jacked up my bike to change the oil and engine filters.
With J&S Jacks, as you pump the piston and the metal bars fall into the different notches to lock in place.
Those who have J&S Jack's may understand me alittle better - you have to jack up the bike a few centimeters to release the locks in order to lower the bike.
For my issue.....
I jacked up, finished my work and now time to lower the bike..... when i go to pump up the piston to raise the metal bars a few centimeters - to release for the notches.....the piston wont pump no more..:shocked:
I have to try to tighten the release valve, but nothing happens.
Then I try to loosen the release valve to release pressure - and now the piston won't go down no more.:shocked:
The jack is 5 years old and only been used 2 times...
I have not MAXED out the hieght limit b/c there are 3 more lock notche and in the past I have gone MUCH higher
any suggestions?
here is the photo of my bike in its current position....:banghead:
