This Heavy-Duty Floor Transmission Jack is designed for automotive professionals and serious DIYers needing to safely manage gearboxes and differential units during repairs. Its key benefit is the stable, precise lifting and lowering capability up to 150kg and 585mm, facilitated by a hand-operated scissor mechanism and a secure webbing strap. A potential caveat to consider is its substantial weight (17.89kg), which may require careful maneuvering in tighter spaces.

The maximum lifting height for the saddle is 585mm.
The minimum saddle height is 195mm.
While primarily designed for transmissions and differentials, its capacity and stability might allow for lifting certain lighter engine components, but it's not its primary intended use. Always verify weight and balance.
The load is secured by a durable webbing strap with a metal roller buckle on the saddle.
The base dimensions are approximately 400mm x 420mm.
The scissor lift is operated manually via a hand crank or lever, allowing for precise vertical adjustments.
The net weight of the jack is 17.89kg.
Ensure the load is within the 150kg capacity. Check that the scissor mechanism is unobstructed and properly lubricated. Verify the load is centered on the saddle.
Clean any debris from the scissor joints. Apply a light grease to the pivot points of the scissor mechanism.
Inspect castors for debris or damage. Ensure they are properly seated in their mounts. Rotate the castor wheels to clear any obstructions.
Check the webbing for tears or excessive wear. Ensure the metal roller buckle is functioning correctly and is fully engaged. Replace the strap if it shows significant degradation.
Setup: The transmission jack arrives largely assembled. Before first use, inspect all welds and moving parts for any damage incurred during shipping. Ensure the swivel castors rotate freely. Familiarize yourself with the hand-operated scissor mechanism and the webbing strap adjustment.
Compatibility: This jack is designed to work with most standard automotive transmissions, gearboxes, and differential units. Its 150kg capacity is suitable for many passenger cars, light trucks, and SUVs. Always ensure the load's weight does not exceed the jack's maximum capacity.
Care: After each use, clean the jack of any grease, oil, or dirt using a dry or slightly damp cloth. Periodically check the webbing strap for signs of wear or fraying; replace if compromised. Lubricate the scissor mechanism pivot points occasionally with a light grease to ensure smooth operation. Store the jack in a dry, protected area away from corrosive elements. Always ensure the jack is in the fully lowered position when not in use.
