    Early jack release?

    I can get the jack to release with no weight on it but when I put weight on it I can't seem to get it to release. What's the trick? A hammer?(lol) I know how it is supposed to work,but with weight on it will not move to let the car down. What am I doing wrong?

    You probably aren't pressing down on the release lever hard enough. It releases and just lets the car drop to the ground in one fell swoop.
