Frequently asked questions
How much capacity do I need from floor jacks?
Use the vehicle or component weight and the manufacturer's lift/support points, then choose equipment with appropriate rated capacity and margin. Never exceed the stated rating.
Can I work under a vehicle supported only by a jack?
No. A lifting jack is not a substitute for appropriately rated support equipment. Follow the vehicle and lifting-equipment instructions before going underneath.
Does a higher ton rating mean a higher lift?
No. Capacity, minimum height, maximum height and saddle geometry are separate specifications.
What floor surface is appropriate?
Use lifting/support equipment only on a surface and in conditions allowed by its manufacturer; stable, hard and level surfaces are typically critical.
How should lifting equipment be inspected?
Inspect before use for leaks, deformation, damaged welds, wheels, pins, saddles and other defects identified by the manufacturer.
Where should I place the jack or stand?
Use only approved lift/support points identified for the specific vehicle or component.
What is the biggest buying mistake?
Buying by tonnage alone without checking minimum clearance, required lift height, footprint and safe access to the actual lift points.
