    The problems I see in this video: 1) you are not supposed to top off all the way. As per manual - Fill to 1/4” below the fill hole on side of piston (big flathead plug/screw) while bleeding with valve open (counterclockwise). You don’t ever have to remove the other screw for bleeding. 2) you don’t need to remove the big screws on the yolk. Just the rod that prevents it from tipping forward. Turn the handle until it allows you to tip the handle all the way forward and you can get the pistons out. I had a stuck piston all I had to do was wipe down the piston and relubricate w hydraulic oil and I also wiped down the inside with Qtips.

      @C Munsta : I think it could be it just needs a oil change to start off, we have a video on that

      If you know you lifted something too heavy, take a look to see if it has been damaged in any way. It could also be the bolt is just loose as well, you can check the O rings to see if it is split, also.

    If my jack doesn't lock when I twist to the right could I still do this?
    I think my problem is whatever isn't allowing it to lock when I twist it to lock it

    Those are not "washers", they're o-rings or gaskets.. and you open the jack to the "left" (counter clockwise) , not to the "right"
