Today, let’s talk about what you should check before using a heavy-duty jack—here’s a quick guide: 1. Before use, inspect each component for damage and ensure the oil is clean. It’s strictly prohibited to operate a heavy-duty jack if its safety bolts are damaged or if the frame shows more than 20% wear. 2. Place the jack on a flat, stable surface and secure it with a non-slip mat to prevent sliding. 3. When loading, make sure the jack is positioned perpendicular to the surface, and always use a non-slip rubber pad between the jack’s contact point and the weight-bearing area. 4. Never overload the jack, and never extend the handle beyond its recommended length or capacity limits. 5. When operating a hydraulic jack, no one should stand directly in front of it.

Today, let’s talk about what you should check before using a heavy-duty jack—here’s a list:
 
1. Before use, check that all components are intact and the oil is clean. If the safety bolt of a heavy-duty jack is damaged, or if the rack shows 20% wear, operation is strictly prohibited.

2. The outlet should be installed in a flat, secure location and secured firmly using an anti-slip mat.
 
3. The loaded socket must have an anti-slip pad positioned vertically against the surface, with weight applied evenly across the contact area.
 
4. Do not overload the socket, do not extend the handle beyond the permitted number of outlets for this business.
 
5. When using a hydraulic jack, no one should stand in front of the safety bolt.
 
6. During the lifting process, the additional load-bearing cushion should rise along with the insured object, and once the lifting height is reached, the heavy pad will firmly secure everything in place.
 
7. When lifting objects simultaneously using two or more jack points, the total lifting capacity of the heavy-duty jacks must be at least twice the load weight. Additionally, use manual synchronized operation to ensure that each heavy-duty jack applies force and moves at nearly the same speed.
 
8. For heavy-duty jacks, the lifting height must not exceed the limit marker line. In the case of screw and rack-and-pinion jacks, the height of the jack’s screw or frame must not surpass 3/4 of the total height.
 
9. The socket cannot handle the load and has been left unattended for a long time.
10. The jack must slow down the descent; sudden drops under load are strictly prohibited.
 
These are the items that should be inspected before using a heavy-duty jack, ensuring safety when operating it.
