DESCRIPTION
The Clarke CFT5B is a highly versatile heavy - duty hydraulic jack. It comes with a dual - lifting feature. There's a 4 - tonne scissor - action jack and a 5 - tonne bottle - style cylinder jack, making it perfect for both low - and high - clearance vehicles. It's a great asset for agricultural, construction, and industrial lifting tasks. The 4 - tonne front scissor - action jack can lower down to just 70mm, which is ideal for vehicles with low ground clearance. The 5 - tonne bottle (cylinder) jack can lift up to 730mm, suitable for tractors and other high - clearance vehicles. The saddle height ranges from 70mm to 430mm, and the cylinder post height is between 410mm and 730mm. The overall length of the jack is 670mm. It also comes with a 1 - year manufacturer warranty.
Using the Clarke CFT5B jack is easy. First, decide whether to use the scissor - action jack or the bottle - style cylinder jack based on the vehicle's clearance. For low - clearance vehicles, use the 4 - tonne scissor - action jack. Place it under the appropriate lifting point and start pumping the handle to raise the vehicle. For high - clearance vehicles like tractors, use the 5 - tonne bottle jack. Make sure it's placed on a flat and stable surface. When using, keep an eye on the height limits. Don't try to lift beyond the 430mm saddle height or 730mm cylinder post height. As for maintenance, regularly check the hydraulic fluid level. If it's low, refill it with the recommended fluid. Also, clean the jack after each use to prevent dirt and debris from affecting its performance. Remember, this jack comes with a 1 - year manufacturer warranty, but proper use and maintenance will keep it working well for a long time.
