new jack squeeks?

Why does my new jack squeek half way into raising car. Is this ok? Also when I raise it up about 10 inches, it seems like its going to slip! The wheels make it move inward a bit suddenly. Is that normal? Max height of jack is like 12 inches but i need it to go near max cause the jackstand is 10 inch lowest height. I dunno how safe this is. Any help appreciated.

I kno this is kinda noob question...

it moves in because the jack doesnt lift strait up and it's re-centering itself.

my guess on the squeak is that its the jack right before it moves forward. Kinda like a stress releaf.

If you really arent comfortable with it, take it back and get it exchanged. They should understand your concern
