I think this is the right place to put this, if not please move it.

I thought I would try my luck here. I have a 1930's mechanical floor jack that I need help with. I need to know if anyone out there has one by chance and tell me how to operate it. It is a Walker 745B series 2 ton and is perfect for my car. Mine will jack up, but not down. I am a fair mechanic but even I know that it should go up AND down. Maybe even just pics. of the ratchet portion to make sure all of the parts are there correct.

Does it have a release lever that can be foot operated? That's the way most of them operate. One of those parts sticking out the rear looks like it might do the business.
