Product Information
Full details
This Sealey low-profile trolley jack is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts working with sports cars or vehicles with limited ground clearance. Its primary benefit is the ability to get under very low vehicles thanks to its 85mm minimum saddle height. A potential caveat is its short chassis length, which may require precise positioning for longer vehicles. This 2-tonne jack features a heavy-duty chassis, a one-piece hydraulic unit with pump-through action, and a white saddle for better visibility.

FAQs
What is the maximum lifting height of this jack?
The maximum saddle height is 385mm.
Can this jack be used on SUVs or trucks?
This jack has a 2-tonne capacity and is best suited for passenger cars and light vehicles. For heavier SUVs or trucks, a higher capacity jack is recommended.
How do I prevent damage to my vehicle's jacking points?
Always use the included Type A rubber jack pad. Ensure the white saddle is correctly positioned on a reinforced part of the vehicle's chassis.
What does 'pump-through action' mean?
It means the hydraulic handle can be pumped continuously without needing to lock into a specific position, and it prevents the handle from being pushed upwards when the ram reaches its maximum extension.
Is this jack suitable for all sports cars?
It is ideal for sports cars with low ground clearance due to its 85mm minimum saddle height. However, always check the vehicle's specific jacking points and weight capacity.
How should I store the trolley jack?
Store the jack in a dry place with the ram fully retracted to protect the hydraulic system and seals.
What maintenance is required for the hydraulic system?
Periodically check the hydraulic fluid level and inspect for leaks. It is recommended to consult the user manual for specific maintenance and bleeding procedures.
Troubleshooting
Jack fails to lift or lifts very slowly.
Check the oil level in the hydraulic unit. Ensure the release valve is fully closed. If issues persist, the hydraulic system may require bleeding or maintenance.
Handle feels loose or does not engage the pump.
Ensure the handle is correctly inserted into the hydraulic unit. Check for any damage to the handle or the unit's socket. The pump-through mechanism might require inspection.
Jack lowers unexpectedly under load.
This could indicate a hydraulic leak or a faulty seal. Immediately lower the vehicle safely and cease use. The hydraulic unit requires professional inspection or repair.
Difficulty positioning the jack under a very low vehicle.
Ensure the jack's ram is fully retracted. Verify that the surface is level and clear of obstructions. The low-profile design aids, but precise placement is still key.
