Hydraulic transmission jack JCB 1 t, lift range h min 1195 mm – h max 2005 mm

Hydraulic transmission jack JCB 1 t, lift range h min 1195 mm – h max 2005 mm is a workshop tool designed to assist with the safe removal, installation and positioning of gearboxes and transmissions. With a rated capacity of 1 tonne and a hydraulic lifting mechanism, the unit covers a low starting height of 1195 mm and extends to a maximum of 2005 mm, allowing technicians to reach the required working height for a variety of vehicle types. The jack is intended for use in professional or well-equipped hobby workshops where controlled lifting and steady support are needed during transmission service.

Advantages

The hydraulic transmission jack provides a combination of lifting capacity and adjustable height that supports heavy components without manual strain. Hydraulic operation enables smooth, controlled lifting and lowering, while the stable support platform reduces lateral movement during alignment and positioning. Its compact footprint allows access in confined workshop spaces and the construction is intended for repeated use in maintenance and repair operations.

Suitable for

• Removal and installation of gearboxes and transmissions in cars and light commercial vehicles
• Alignment and positioning of drivetrain components during repairs
• Workshop maintenance tasks that require controlled lifting up to 1 tonne

Key specifications

• Rated lifting capacity: 1 tonne
• Minimum lift height: 1195 mm
• Maximum lift height: 2005 mm
• Hydraulic lifting mechanism for smooth operation
• Stable support platform suitable for transmission components

How to use

Position the jack beneath the transmission or gearbox so the support platform aligns with a secure load-bearing point on the component. Use the hydraulic control to raise the platform slowly until it contacts the transmission, then continue lifting to the required service height while checking stability. For removal, support the transmission fully before any unbolting, and lower the jack gradually after the component has been detached. Follow workshop safety procedures and ensure the vehicle is securely supported on stands before working beneath it.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the jack for visible damage and hydraulic leaks before each use, and confirm the rated capacity and lift range suit the task. Use appropriate transmission support attachments or blocking to prevent slippage, and work on a level, stable surface. Maintain the hydraulic system and moving parts according to the manufacturer's service intervals to preserve safe operation.
