Hydraulic Jack AWTools AW HYDRAULIC JACK 3T178 — 3 ton capacity, 350 mm lift

AWTools AW HYDRAULIC JACK 3T178 is a 3-ton capacity hydraulic jack with a maximum lift of 350 mm designed for lifting vehicles and heavy equipment in workshop and roadside situations. The unit provides stable load support through a manual hydraulic mechanism and a compact profile that makes it practical for maintenance, repairs, tyre changes and alignment tasks where a controlled, incremental lift is required.

Advantages

The jack combines a 3-ton rated capacity with a 350 mm maximum lift to cover most passenger cars, light commercial vehicles and mid-size equipment. Its manual hydraulic operation offers precise height control and gradual lowering for safe positioning, while a stable base and saddle minimize tipping and slippage during use. The compact design facilitates storage and transport, and the construction materials and finish are selected for workshop durability.

Suitable for

• Routine vehicle maintenance and underbody inspections
• Tire and wheel changes on cars and light vans
• Small repairs and component replacements in garages
• On-site roadside assistance where a portable lifting tool is required

Key specifications

• Rated lifting capacity: 3 tonnes
• Maximum lifting height: 350 mm
• Operation type: manual hydraulic
• Design: low-profile, portable trolley-style jack
• Load contact: saddle for secure vehicle contact

How to use

Position the jack on a level, solid surface and align the saddle under the manufacturer-recommended lift point of the vehicle or equipment. Pump the handle to raise the saddle until the load is lifted to the required height, checking stability as you raise. To lower, use the control valve to release hydraulic pressure slowly, bringing the load down in a controlled manner. Always follow vehicle manufacturer lift points and use proper axle stands or supports before performing work underneath the lifted object.

Usage recommendations

Before each use, inspect the jack for fluid leaks, damaged seals, and deformations. Use on flat, stable ground and never exceed the rated 3-ton capacity. For prolonged storage, keep the jack clean and in a lowered position to protect the hydraulic system.
