FAQs

What is the minimum height of the jack?

The minimum saddle height for the Clarke CTJ3500LPQL is 110mm, making it suitable for low-profile vehicles.

What is the maximum lifting height?

The maximum lifting height is 505mm.

How many strokes does it take to reach maximum height?

Is this jack suitable for SUVs or trucks?

With a 3.5-tonne capacity, it is suitable for most cars and light commercial vehicles. However, for heavier trucks, a higher capacity jack would be required.

How do I maintain the hydraulic fluid?

Check the fluid level regularly and top up with appropriate hydraulic jack oil as per the user manual. Avoid overfilling.

It is best used on a firm, level surface. Prolonged exposure to the elements, especially moisture, can lead to rust on the steel chassis. It should be stored in a dry place.

What is the weight of the jack?

Troubleshooting

Jack does not lift or lifts slowly

Check the hydraulic fluid level and top up if low. Ensure the release valve is fully closed. Bleed the hydraulic system if necessary following the manufacturer's manual.

Jack lowers unevenly or drifts down

Inspect the release valve for leaks or damage. Ensure the jack is on a level surface. Check for internal hydraulic leaks and contact customer support if the issue persists.

Handle is difficult to pump

Verify that the release valve is fully closed. Ensure the hydraulic system is not overfilled. Check for any obstructions in the pump mechanism.

Saddle does not engage the vehicle quickly

Confirm the quick lift function is engaged correctly. Ensure there is no excessive pressure built up in the system before attempting to engage the saddle.
