Tool: Michelin Flaskedonkraft - 3T hydraulic bottle jack, capacity 3 tonne

Michelin Flaskedonkraft - 3T hydraulic bottle jack is a compact lifting tool designed to raise vehicles and heavy equipment with a rated capacity of 3 tonnes. The jack uses a vertical hydraulic ram housed in a cylindrical body to deliver stable, controlled lifting for routine maintenance, tire changes and light repairs. Its compact footprint makes it suitable for garage, workshop and roadside use where space is limited but reliable lifting performance is required.

Advantages

This hydraulic bottle jack provides a high lifting capacity in a compact form factor and offers steady, incremental lifting through a hydraulic mechanism that reduces operator effort. The construction is engineered for stability during vertical lifts and includes a screw extension for fine height adjustment. Because of its simple mechanical design it is easy to operate and maintain, and it stores conveniently in a service vehicle or workshop toolbox.

Suitable for

• Lifting passenger cars and light commercial vehicles for tire changes
• Temporary lifting of agricultural or workshop machinery during inspections and minor repairs
• Use in garage and workshop environments where a compact, high-capacity jack is needed

Key specifications

• Rated lifting capacity: 3 tonnes
• Operation type: hydraulic bottle jack with vertical ram
• Primary function: compact vertical lifting for maintenance and repairs
• Adjustment: manual screw extension for fine height control
• Use environment: garage, workshop, roadside service

How to use

Place the jack on a firm, level surface and position it under a manufacturer-specified lifting point on the vehicle or equipment. Operate the hydraulic pump handle according to the jack’s operating method to raise the load until the desired height is reached. Use the screw extension to fine-tune the final height if required. Before performing any work beneath the lifted load, support the vehicle or equipment with appropriate axle stands or support blocks rated for the load. To lower, release the hydraulic valve slowly to control descent.

Usage recommendations

Always consult the vehicle or equipment manufacturer’s lifting points and weight limits before use. Ensure the jack and any support stands are rated above the actual load, work on level ground, and perform regular visual inspections of seals and moving parts. Store the jack in a clean, dry place and follow routine maintenance procedures to preserve hydraulic performance.
