The hydraulic floor jack is an significant hydraulic tool used to lift heavy objects and mobile devices, typically vehicles, for maintenance or repair purposes. When trying to repair a vehicle, it can easily lift the entire car quickly. This is particularly advantageous in situations where prompt lifting is essential, such as when changing a flat tire or performing quick undercarriage inspections. It makes life easier and more efficiently for many mechanics and car owners.
A hydraulic floor jack usually consists of a base plate, a detachable handle, a release valve, a saddle, and four durable roller wheels. The jack's frame houses the hydraulic cylinder and pump assembly. It also comes with safety features like overload protection valve to prevent the jack from overloading. Some hydraulic floor jacks may have a dual pump with a U-joint release mechanism or a side foot pedal for easier and faster operation. These jack components work together can provide a safe and efficient method for lifting heavy loads in automotive applications.
Hydraulic floor jacks come in a variety of lifting capacities and are suitable for lifting all types of vehicles, from small cars to large trucks. This versatility makes them a valuable tool for vehicle maintenance and repair.
Overall, hydraulic floor jack is designed to provide strength, stability, versatility and ease of use to lift heavy objects safely and efficiently.
1. Check whether the oil drain valve is fullly closed. (Whether the the oil drainer handle is full tightened).
3. If the jack vibrates or rises showly when it is lifted, tighten the oil drain handle, loosen it half a turn, and pressure the handle to drain the air.
4. If the jack with a double pump needs repair, pull out the double pump piston spring, unscrew the piston bolt, take out the bottom retaining ring, take out the two sealed steel balls, and check whether the steel balls are intact. If the piston is overflowing with oil, pull out the double pump piston and replace a new piston seal. If the oil drain valve leaks, remove the oil drain valve bolt and clean it, replace the sealing ring on the oil drain valve bolt, and install the oil drainer valve.
How to maintain hydraulic floor jacks?
Monthly maintenance is recommended. Lubrication is very important for jacks as they support heavy loads. Any restriction due to dirt, rust, etc., can cause either slow movement or extremely rapid jerks, damaging the internal components. The following steps are designed to keep the jacks well-lubricated:
1. Lubricate the ram, linkages, saddle and pump mechanism with light oil. Grease wheels bearings and axles.
7. Make sure to store your jacks in the fully lowered position. This will help protect critical areas from excessive corrosion.
