Product Information

Full details

The SecureFix Direct Under Hoist High Support Stand is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts working on raised vehicles. Its key benefit is providing enhanced stability and safety during complex repairs that alter a vehicle's center of gravity, such as transmission or exhaust removal. A potential caveat is its weight, making it less portable for some users. This tripod stand offers adjustable height from 142 cm to 212 cm with a 2-ton capacity, making it suitable for a wide range of cars, vans, and light trucks.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of this stand?

The stand has a maximum load capacity of 2 tons (approximately 4000 lbs).

What is the height range of the stand?

The stand is adjustable from a minimum height of 1425 mm (142.5 cm) to a maximum height of 2120 mm (212 cm).

Can this stand be used on any vehicle?

It is suitable for most cars, vans, and light trucks that do not exceed its 2-ton weight capacity. Always ensure the vehicle is rated for safe lifting and that the stand is placed on designated support points.

What makes the tripod base more stable?

The three-point contact of the tripod base distributes weight more evenly and provides a wider, more stable footprint compared to single-leg jack stands, reducing the risk of tipping.

How do I adjust the height precisely?

After setting the approximate height with the pin, use the large winding handle to make fine adjustments until the stand safely supports the intended load.

What are the dimensions of the cradle that contacts the vehicle?

The cradle measures 50 mm by 50 mm.

What is the weight of the support stand?

The stand weighs 17.5 kg.

Troubleshooting

Stand is unstable or wobbly

Ensure the stand is placed on a perfectly level and solid surface. Verify that the tripod legs are fully extended and firmly planted. Check that the vehicle's support point is centered on the cradle.

Height adjustment is stiff or difficult

Clean any debris from the adjustment shaft and winding mechanism. Lubricate the threaded rod of the winding handle with a suitable grease. Ensure the height pin is fully disengaged before attempting to adjust.

Rust or corrosion visible on the stand

Clean affected areas with a wire brush. Apply a rust inhibitor or a light coat of oil to prevent further corrosion. Avoid storing in damp environments.

Pin for height adjustment is difficult to insert/remove

Ensure the shaft is aligned correctly and free of debris. A light tap with a rubber mallet might help seat or release the pin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the vehicle is securely supported by a lift or primary jack before positioning the stand.
  2. Place the stand on a flat, firm, and level surface.
  3. Adjust the stand's height by first removing the secure pin and raising or lowering the shaft to the approximate desired level. Reinsert the pin to lock the shaft.
  4. Use the large winding handle to finely adjust the height until it safely contacts and supports the vehicle's designated support point (e.g., frame rail, reinforced chassis point).
  5. Double-check that the stand is stable and securely supporting the load.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for use with 2-post and 4-post vehicle lifts.
  • Designed for use with cars, vans, and light trucks with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) that allows for a 2-ton load capacity on the stand.
  • Requires a minimum clear space for its 610mm width tripod base.

Care:

  • Wipe down with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove dust and grime.
  • Inspect regularly for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion.
  • Lubricate the winding mechanism periodically to ensure smooth operation.
  • Store in a dry location to prevent rust.
