Do you need to do any maintenance on a car jack?
I own a typical car jack for 11 years now, bought new from Canadian Tire. I only use it for DIY seasonal tire change, so I lift each corner and it takes (over-estimating) max 2 minutes each, so:
2 minutes x 4 wheels=8 minutes
x2 changes per year
=16 minutes of real-time use of the jack per year
Knock wood it has performed nicely throughout but wondering do ppl really need to do maintenance on their jacks? I read that they change the fluid? I personally don't know how to go about it or if it's even necessary for my application. What do you guys do?

Hard work, inheritance, interest on interest accumulating, and stock and real estate speculation. It's all good.
