FAQs
What is the maximum weight this transmission jack can lift?
The Vertical Transmission Jack has a maximum lifting capacity of 600kg.
What is the minimum and maximum lifting height?
The saddle height ranges from a minimum of 1175mm to a maximum of 1985mm.
How does the safety release work?
It features a spring-loaded dead man's safety release control that must be actively held or engaged for the jack to descend. Releasing it stops the descent, minimizing the risk of accidental lowering.
Is assembly required?
The jack typically comes mostly assembled, but final checks and potential attachment of accessories like the foot pedal may be required. Refer to the included manual for specific instructions.
Can this jack be used for transmissions in all types of vehicles?
It is suitable for general workshop applications, including cars and light trucks. For very heavy or unusually shaped components, ensure the load is within the 600kg capacity and properly secured to the saddle.
How do I maintain the hydraulic system?
Regularly check the hydraulic fluid level and top up with the appropriate fluid if low. Periodically inspect for leaks. Keep the hydraulic unit clean.
What are the dimensions of the base?
The base size of the transmission jack is 560mm x 570mm.
Are there any optional accessories available?
Yes, an optional Adjustable Gearbox Support (ADT3) is available for specialized applications.
Troubleshooting
Jack fails to lift or lifts slowly
Check the hydraulic fluid level and top up if low. Ensure the foot pedal is being operated correctly. Inspect for any leaks in the hydraulic lines or seals.
Jack lowers unexpectedly or too quickly
Verify that the spring-loaded dead man's safety release control is functioning. Check the hydraulic system for internal leaks. Ensure the jack is not overloaded. If the issue persists, discontinue use and seek professional service.
Castors are stiff or difficult to move
Clean debris from around the castors and axles. Lubricate the castor bearings and axles with an appropriate lubricant. Check for any damage to the castors themselves.
Hydraulic pedal feels spongy
This may indicate air in the hydraulic system. Follow the manufacturer's procedure for bleeding the hydraulic system. Ensure the fluid level is correct.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Ensure the jack is placed on a flat, stable, and level surface.
Verify that the area around the jack is clear of obstructions.
Before first use, perform a test lift and lower cycle without a load to ensure the hydraulic system is functioning correctly and all safety features are engaged.
Compatibility:
This jack is designed for general workshop use and is compatible with most passenger cars, light trucks, and some heavy machinery.
An optional Adjustable Gearbox Support (ADT3) can be attached for specialized applications requiring articulated support.
Care:
Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the jack with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and grime. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Hydraulic Fluid: Check the hydraulic fluid level periodically and top up if necessary with the recommended fluid type (consult manufacturer specifications if unsure). Do not overfill.
Moving Parts: Lubricate moving parts, such as the castor axles and lifting mechanism, as per the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure smooth operation.
Inspection: Regularly inspect the jack for any signs of damage, wear, or leaks. Pay close attention to hydraulic hoses, seals, and the main lifting ram. If any damage is found, cease use immediately and arrange for repair or replacement.
Storage: Store the jack in a dry environment when not in use. Ensure it is in the lowered position.
