Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What air pressure does this bottle jack require to operate? A: This air bottle jack operates on standard shop air pressure between 90-120 PSI, which most garage compressors provide. The air turbo motor is designed to work efficiently at these common pressures, delivering smooth lifting operation without requiring specialized high-pressure equipment for optimal performance.
What air pressure does this bottle jack require to operate?
Operates on standard shop air pressure between 90-120 PSI that most garage compressors provide.
Q: Can this jack be used manually without air connection? A: Yes, the Omega 18206C functions as both an air-operated and manual hydraulic bottle jack. When air is disconnected or unavailable, you can operate it manually using the standard pumping handle, maintaining the full 20 ton lifting capacity while reverting to traditional manual operation methods.
Can this jack be used manually without air connection?
Yes, it functions as both air-operated and manual hydraulic bottle jack with full 20 ton capacity.
Q: How does this compare to a standard manual bottle jack? A: Air operation eliminates the physical effort of manual pumping, reducing operator fatigue and significantly speeding up lifting operations. While providing the same 20 ton capacity, the air-powered system includes additional convenience features like quick-disconnect hose and external return springs for faster lowering.
How does this compare to a standard manual bottle jack?
Eliminates manual pumping effort, reduces fatigue, and includes quick-disconnect hose plus return springs.
Q: What vehicles can this 20 ton bottle jack safely lift? A: Suitable for most passenger cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, and light commercial vehicles up to 40,000 pounds total weight. Always verify your specific vehicle's weight rating and locate proper reinforced lift points before use. Not recommended for extremely heavy commercial trucks or specialized equipment.
What vehicles can this 20 ton bottle jack safely lift?
Most cars, trucks, SUVs, and light commercial vehicles. Always verify weight limits and lift points.
Q: Does the external return spring feature make a difference? A: Yes, external return springs significantly improve workflow efficiency by helping the jack lower faster and more reliably compared to models without springs. This feature reduces the time spent waiting for the jack to retract completely, making repetitive lifting operations smoother and more predictable.
Does the external return spring feature make a difference?
Yes, springs help the jack lower faster and more reliably, improving workflow efficiency.
