Model overview
When operating hydraulic devices, an overload of up to 25% is allowed. For example, the DG-02 model is capable of lifting 2500 kg, but it is necessary to observe the lifting capacity indicated in the technical passport, which is 2 tons.
The presence of protection will not allow you to lift weight more than indicated. If it becomes necessary to lift the mass over 2.5 tons, the DG-02 will not be able to do this. This protection is available in all AUTOPROFI hydraulic products with a lifting capacity from 2 to 20 tons.
Separately, it should be said about the telescopic model DT-04. There are 2 sections in its piston, the main one extends by 35 cm, and the second adds another 3 cm.
Bottle modifications should be transported vertically, otherwise oil leakage will occur. With proper use, there will be no need to replace and add lubricant. If an oil change is still needed, then to do this, unscrew the bypass valve, drain the old one and rinse the container. When filling in a new one, the piston must be lowered. After pumping, the amount of grease may decrease.
The lifting capacity of AUTOPROFI rolling jacks is 2 tons. Modifications DP-20H K, DP-20K and DP-17K come with a practical case. All devices are equipped with a plastic handle. This is a great option for those who like to tinker with the car in the garage.
Choosing a rolling jack
When choosing a rolling jack, pay special attention to the lifting capacity. If it will not be used professionally, then models that lift a load weighing 2-3 tons are suitable. Such units are small and lightweight.
Therefore, they are very convenient to use. The minimum pick-up height plays an important role. If the car is of a passenger type, then it is necessary to select a tool that can be substituted under a low car. Additional accents in the choice should be the build quality of the tool and the material from which it is made.

Top jack manufacturers
One of the most essential garage tools is a reliable jack. It is the tool most associated with safety and accident injury. They start by buying a low quality device that does not meet the machine's capacity requirements. Knowing the design features of the lift will help to avoid most of these mistakes and determine which 3 t rolling jack is better. Below is a list of favorite brands:
- Nesco Tools.
- Powerzone 3.
- Arcan ALJ3T.
- Inforce TA83003.
- Blackhawk Automotive.
- Biloxxi.
- Powerbuilt.
- Kraft.
- Vettler.
- NOS NSJ0301 3t.
Criterias of choice
The jack should be selected in accordance with the unladen weight of the vehicle. To this figure, add another 100-200 kg for reliability.
Some people acquire a mechanism for moving a load resting on it, weighing even less than the mass of the car. In most cases, not all cars have to be lifted, but only part of it - this is enough to replace a wheel. But with this approach to the choice, the likelihood of damage to the jack increases.
When choosing a car jack, one should take into account not only its type, but also the maximum height, the cost of the product. Remember that this device is designed to raise the machine, not to hold it. Work with the jack on a flat surface so as not to damage the car.

Jacks from this manufacturer are:
bottle;

Criterias of choice
To choose a jack of any kind, you need to understand that it is intended for a certain type of work. Bottle screw devices do not need preliminary calculations, you just need to understand what kind of load the device will be intended for. The carrying capacity is selected according to your type of vehicle.
The lifting height for these types of devices is different, so it is better to buy a model where this indicator is the highest. If your car has special grooves and cells, then this criterion must be taken into account for lifting the car and choosing a jack.
When choosing a device, it is better to buy a model with a power reserve.
