4 Ton Long Reach Trolley Jack

Scissor Jack Overview:

A scissor jack is a type of mechanical lifting device commonly used for raising vehicles, typically for changing a flat tire. It is often included in the trunk (boot) of a car alongside a spare wheel. This jack operates via a wind-up mechanism, which uses a handle to turn a screw, causing the arms of the scissor jack to expand outward, lifting the vehicle. Scissor jacks are compact, lightweight, and affordable, making them a popular choice for emergency roadside assistance.

How to Use a Scissor Jack:

1. Preparation:

   • Position the Jack: Place the scissor jack on solid ground, as close to the vehicles lifting point as possible. Ensure the vehicle is on a flat surface and the handbrake is applied.
   • Loosen Lug Nuts: Before lifting the vehicle, use a wrench to slightly loosen the lug nuts of the flat tire while the vehicle is still on the ground.

2. Position the Scissor Jack:

   • Locate the vehicle's jacking point (usually near the wheel well, indicated in the vehicle's manual). Position the scissor jacks lift plate directly under this point.

3. Lifting the Vehicle:

   • Insert the Handle: Attach the handle to the jacks winding mechanism.
   • Wind the Handle: Turn the handle in a clockwise direction to raise the jacks arms. This will gradually lift the vehicle off the ground. Continue until the tire is fully raised.

4. Remove the Flat Tire:

   • Once the vehicle is lifted, remove the loosened lug nuts and take off the flat tire.
   • Replace with the spare tire and tighten the lug nuts loosely.

5. Lower the Vehicle:

   • After securing the spare tire, use the handle to reverse the wind-up mechanism, slowly lowering the vehicle back to the ground.
   • Once the vehicle is stable, tighten the lug nuts fully in a crisscross pattern to ensure proper fastening.

6. Finish:

   • Carefully remove the scissor jack and handle, and store them back in the vehicles trunk, along with the flat tire.
