Why do floor jacks fail?

Either higher or lower oil levels than what is recommended will likely cause your floor jack to fail. The wrong oil levels limit not only the jack's lifting capacity but also its lowering capability. To check its oil levels, take out the floor jack's oil fill plug and have a peep within the chamber.
