Garage jack help.

I have a 3 ton speedy lift jack. I loaned to a neighbor for about 20 minutes today, so he could put a wheel on his Honda Accord. I told him to only turn the handle far enough to let the car drop, not all the way to the left. When he brought the jack back, of course the handle was all the way left. Now it wont lift any weight at all. That is, it won't even lift with my kid standing on it and that is like 45lbs. It will work fine unweighted. I can't find the manual that would have any troubleshooting info. Any ideas on what I can do to make this thing work properly? Thanks.
