Full details

The Loops 1.5 Tonne Short Chassis Hydraulic Trolley Jack is a reliable, compact lifting solution designed for DIY enthusiasts and roadside emergencies. It offers a convenient 300mm maximum lift height and robust steel construction, making it an excellent choice for light vehicle maintenance. While its 1.5-tonne capacity is perfect for smaller cars, it is not intended for heavy-duty commercial trucks or SUVs, and users must always utilize jack stands for safety.

FAQs

Can I use this jack on a gravel driveway?

Trolley jacks are designed for use on flat, hard, and level surfaces like concrete. Using it on gravel can cause the jack to become unstable.

Is it safe to work under the car with just this jack?

No. Never rely solely on a hydraulic jack to hold a vehicle. Always use axle stands once the vehicle is raised to the desired height.

How do I lower the vehicle safely?

Slowly rotate the handle counter-clockwise to release the hydraulic pressure gradually.

What is the weight of this unit?

The jack weighs 7kg, making it very easy to transport.

Does this jack fit under low-profile cars?

With a minimum saddle height of 130mm, it fits most standard vehicles but may not accommodate ultra-low-profile sports cars.

Troubleshooting

The jack will not lift to the maximum height.

Check the hydraulic fluid level or bleed the air from the system by opening the release valve and pumping the handle several times.

The jack handle feels spongy during pumping.

This usually indicates air in the hydraulic system; purge the air by following the bleeding procedure outlined in your user manual.

The jack slowly lowers under load.

Ensure the release valve is fully closed. If it continues to drop, the internal hydraulic seal may be worn and requires professional service.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight at only 7kg
  • Compact footprint ideal for small trunks
  • Easy to maneuver with welded castor supports
  • Overload protection included for user safety
  • Simple one-piece handle operation

Cons

  • Limited 300mm maximum lift height
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty vehicles or trucks
  • Low lifting range may require secondary support for higher ground clearance vehicles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To begin, ensure the vehicle is parked on level ground and the parking brake is fully engaged. Slide the jack under the designated jacking point. Insert the handle into the pumping mechanism and rotate it clockwise to close the hydraulic release valve before pumping.

Compatibility: This jack is compatible with vehicles weighing up to 1.5 tonnes. Always verify your vehicle's curb weight before use. Do not exceed the maximum height of 300mm.

Care: To extend the life of your jack:

  1. Keep the ram free from grit and debris.
  2. Store in a dry, cool place to prevent corrosion.
  3. Periodically check for hydraulic oil leaks around the piston.
  4. Ensure the castor wheels remain lubricated for smooth movement.
