I purchased one of these jacks and I really like it. The instructions said nothing about this but when your jack arrives there is a plug that has a ball bearing "check valve" in it included in a plastic bag. You are supposed to replace the solid plug sealing the fluid reservoir with the plug having the check valve. Funny how much better the jack worked after replacing that plug. Also, the fluid reservoir was nowhere near topped off so that had to be done as well. Again, the instructions never mentioned that.

Hey, ls1ac, where did you get the replacement smaller roller? What you did sounds like a good mod.
