Sealey Viking Telescopic Bottle Jack - 12 Tonne

The product details do not specify the minimum closed height, but the telescopic design is intended to provide a reduced closed height compared to standard bottle jacks.

Always use the jack on a firm, level surface. Position it correctly under the vehicle's jacking point and always use axle stands to support the vehicle when working underneath it. Do not exceed the 12-tonne weight limit.

The safety overload valve prevents the jack from being used beyond its rated capacity. If the pressure exceeds the limit, the valve will release, preventing damage to the jack and potential hazards.

This bottle jack is designed for vertical lifting of vehicles or heavy equipment. It is not designed for angled lifting or precise positioning of components like an engine hoist.

It is recommended to check the hydraulic fluid level periodically, especially if you notice a decrease in performance or if the jack fails to reach its maximum height. Refer to the manufacturer's full manual for detailed fluid check and maintenance procedures.

The 3-year guarantee typically covers manufacturing defects. It does not usually cover damage caused by misuse, neglect, or normal wear and tear. Refer to the guarantee documentation provided with the product for specific terms and conditions.

Check the oil level. Ensure the release valve is fully closed. Verify that the handle is inserted correctly into the pump socket.

This could indicate a minor leak. Check the release valve seal and ram seals for wear or damage. Do not use if significant lowering occurs; seek professional inspection.

Ensure the release valve is fully closed. Check for any obstructions. If persistent, the internal mechanism may require cleaning and lubrication.

Ensure the release valve is fully open. Check for any dirt or debris around the ram that might be impeding retraction. If the issue persists, the hydraulic system may need servicing.
