Hydraulically operated Floor Transmission Jack and equipment are available in a wide variety of types, many for specific applications.

Many jacks use hydraulics as a means of pressing, pushing, lifting, supporting, and stabilizing. Using hydraulically operated equipment is a very efficient way of performing these tasks. It is important that the proper safety procedures be practiced, prior to, and during the operation, or maintenance of hydraulic equipment. I am including some safety guidelines for operating and repairing jacks with hydraulics:

Personal protective equipment: Always wear eye and hand protection. Wear ANSI-approved safety impact goggles, non-skid safety shoes, and heavy duty work gloves when using this jack.

Personal safety: Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep long hair tied back or inside your hat. Keep your clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in the moving parts of the jack. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables you to better control yourself in unexpected situations.

Tool use and care: Store idle jacks and equipment out of reach of children and other untrained people. Jacks and equipment are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. Maintain this jack with care. Keep it clean. A properly maintained jack is easier to control. Do not use a damaged jack or equipment. Tag damaged jacks and equipment “Do not use” until repaired. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, loose or broken parts, and any other condition that may affect this jack’s operation. If damaged, have the jack serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained jacks and equipment. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one product may become hazardous when used on another product.

Service: 3 Ton Jack Stands service must be performed only by qualified service technician. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury. When servicing this jack, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the “Inspection, Maintenance, and Cleaning”. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electrical shock or injury.
