Frequently Asked Questions

General Product Information

1. What is a hydraulic toe jack used for?
Hydraulic toe jacks are designed for lifting heavy machinery and equipment off the ground to allow the placement of machinery skates or for relocation and maintenance tasks.

2. What makes a toe jack different from a standard jack?
A toe jack features a low-profile lifting toe in addition to a standard top lifting point, making it suitable for accessing tight clearances under machinery or low-loading points.

3. Is this product suitable for industrial applications?
Yes, the hydraulic toe jack is ideal for factories, workshops, and industrial environments where machinery or plant equipment needs to be lifted safely and efficiently.

4. Can this jack be used with machinery skates?
Absolutely. It is commonly used to raise equipment just enough to slide skates into place before transportation begins.

Usage and Operation

5. How is the jack operated?
The jack is manually pumped using the handle to raise the load. The hydraulic system provides smooth and controlled lifting with minimal effort.

6. Can it lift from both the toe and the head?
Yes, the jack can lift from either the toe for low-clearance lifting or from the top head when more clearance is available.
