Product Information

Full details

The B-G Racing Quick Lift Lifting Jack - Long is designed for mechanics and enthusiasts working with single-seater and formula race cars that have very low ground clearance. Its primary benefit is enabling easy lifting of these vehicles for maintenance or setup with its long handles and quick-lift mechanism. A key consideration is its specialized use for low-profile vehicles. This jack features a robust steel construction with a corrosion-resistant powder-coated finish, a safety lock for the handle to prevent accidental lowering, and highly visible yellow-tipped handles.

Troubleshooting

Jack fails to lift or lifts slowly.

Ensure the jack is on a level surface and the lifting point is secure. Check for any obstructions around the lifting ram. If the problem persists, check the hydraulic fluid level (refer to manufacturer's manual if available) or contact customer support.

Handle lock does not engage or disengage smoothly.

Inspect the lock mechanism for dirt or debris. Gently clean the mechanism. If binding continues, a light application of appropriate lubricant might help, but avoid over-lubrication. Contact support if the issue is significant.

Jack appears unstable during operation.

Immediately lower the vehicle. Ensure the jack is positioned on a completely flat, hard, and stable surface. Verify the vehicle's lifting point is correct and that the jack is centered. Never use on uneven or soft ground.
