Solve all your garage and workshop vehicle positioning problems with the new Hy-Jacks from Power-TEC (part number 92438). These seem like a good way of moving vehicles in confined areas; once fitted, they let the vehicle roll easily in any direction. Two Hy-Jacks permit a full 180-degree vehicle pivot, four Hy-Jacks give full manoeuvrability.

Sold in pairs, they lift the vehicle in seconds. The product is positioned around the tyre, then a few pumps of the hydraulic foot pedal progressively lifts the vehicle tyre between the rollers until the tyre lifts smoothly and quickly off the ground. The rollers touch only the tyre; there is no contact with the vehicle’s bodywork or chassis. After lifting, the low centre of gravity makes them safe and stable in use, and the vehicle can effortlessly be placed in the required position in the workshop or garage.

To lower, no further pumping is necessary, simply release the hydraulic valve and the tyre is lowered smoothly to the ground.

Slide a vehicle into a confined space, move a disabled vehicle, or remove a vehicle obstructing an entrance when no keys are available —  whatever the reason, vehicles can be moved easily, quickly and safely. Particularly useful in the bodyshop.

They are suitable for a maximum tyre width of 305mm; the frame is adjustable from 345mm to 630mm. Weight capacity is 1369kg per pair (single wheel capacity 680kg). Each unit is equipped with four tough nylon casters, and a safety hook and chain for the pedal. The jacks are CE-certificated and GS/TUV approved.

Available now from Power-TEC and typically priced (per pair) at £358.80 inc VAT.
