Product Information
Full details
This Hydraulic Trolley Jack from Loops is designed for both professional mechanics and DIY car owners who need to lift vehicles efficiently and safely. Its key benefit is the powerful 3000kg capacity combined with the innovative Rocket Lift feature for rapid elevation, saving time and effort. A potential caveat is the 37.5kg net weight, which requires careful handling. The jack features a robust build with a heavy base, a large jacking saddle, a universal joint release for controlled lowering, smooth polyurethane wheels, and a magnetic nut tray for convenience.

FAQs
What type of hydraulic fluid should I use?
Consult the product manual or manufacturer's website for the specific recommended hydraulic fluid type. Typically, a high-quality hydraulic jack oil is suitable.
How do I perform the second year of the guarantee?
The second year of the 2-Year Guarantee is subject to terms and conditions, including registration on the Loops website after your initial purchase. Please refer to the warranty card or website for details.
Can this jack be used on uneven surfaces?
No, this jack must be used on a hard, level surface for safety and optimal performance. Using it on uneven ground can lead to instability and potential accidents.
What is the maximum chassis height clearance?
The maximum chassis height is 162mm. This refers to the height of the vehicle's frame above the ground when fully lowered.
How often should I check the hydraulic fluid level?
It is recommended to check the hydraulic fluid level periodically, especially before critical use or if you notice slow lifting. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions.
Does the magnetic nut tray hold all types of lug nuts?
The magnetic tray is designed to hold standard lug nuts securely. Larger or non-ferrous nuts may not adhere as strongly.
How do I maintain the polyurethane wheels?
Keep the wheels clean and free from debris. If they become stiff, a light lubrication may help, but avoid over-application that could attract dirt.
Troubleshooting
Jack fails to lift or lifts very slowly
Check that the hydraulic release valve is fully closed. Ensure there is sufficient hydraulic fluid in the reservoir. Inspect for any hydraulic leaks.
Jack lowers unevenly or unexpectedly
Ensure the release valve is not partially open. Check for obstructions around the lifting mechanism. Confirm the vehicle is correctly positioned on the saddle and the surface is level.
Polyurethane wheels are sticking or difficult to move
Inspect wheels for debris or damage. Clean the wheels and the floor surface. Ensure the jack is not overloaded.
Handle is difficult to pump
Verify the release valve is fully closed. Ensure the hydraulic system is not overfilled. Check for any binding in the handle mechanism.
Pros and Cons

- High lifting capacity suitable for a wide range of vehicles.
- Rapid lifting with the Rocket Lift feature saves significant time.
- Enhanced safety features like controlled release and stable base.
- Durable construction for long-term use.
- User-friendly design with convenient features like the nut tray and protective sleeve.
Cons
- Significant net weight of 37.5kg can make repositioning difficult for some users.
- Requires a relatively smooth and level surface for optimal operation.
- The second year of the guarantee requires online registration.
- Maximum chassis height is limited to 162mm, which may be a constraint for very low-profile vehicles.
- While it protects paintwork, caution is still needed to avoid contact with vehicle panels.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The jack is ready for use out of the box. Ensure the hydraulic release valve is fully closed before operating the handle. Insert the handle into the socket and pump vigorously to raise the saddle. To lower, turn the handle slowly counter-clockwise to open the release valve. Always use on a hard, level surface. Ensure the jacking point on the vehicle is correctly identified and matches the saddle size.
Compatibility: With a 3000kg capacity and a saddle height range of 100mm to 533mm, this jack is compatible with most passenger cars, SUVs, and light trucks. Ensure the vehicle's specified jacking points are suitable for this type of jack.
Care: Keep the hydraulic system clean and topped up with appropriate hydraulic fluid if needed (refer to manufacturer recommendations for fluid type). Regularly check for leaks. Wipe down the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Store in a dry environment to prevent rust. Periodically inspect the wheels and handle for any damage. Ensure the protective sleeve remains in good condition.
