A victim often lies near or under the rear axle, which means that the vehicle can not be lifted at that spot.
Because lifting the frame of heavy vehicles often leads to unsafe situations, lifting the vehicle at the rear
wheel is the safest solution.
3.12 Extension pipe
An extension pipe makes it possible to spread over a greater length. The extension pipes are made so
they can only be placed on the fixed side of the ram jack. Not every model ram jack can be fitted with an
extension pipe. There are two or three different lengths available, depending on the model.
The extension pipes can also be used separately as props to take the place of the ram jack if it is
needed elsewhere. A connection piece is always needed for this, as well as accessories such as a ram
head and a base plate.
Note
• Never use more than one extension pipe at the same time.
• Always use a ram head or other accessory at the end of the extension pipe.
3.13 Set of pulling shoe and set of pulling chains
Pulling shoes make it possible to use a ram jack for pulling. To this aim the pulling shoes must be placed
on the ends of the plungers and/or fixed side, instead of the ram heads. The pulling shoes may only be
used in combination with the corresponding set of pulling chains. These pulling chains consist of two
parts, each with a shortening hook that only grabs the chain. The chains are 1.5 m and 3 m long
respectively.
WARNING
The pulling accessories are intended solely for the horizontal movement of loads.
Hoisting is not permitted with these pulling accessories.
3.14 Base plate
The base plate has a larger pressure area than the standard ram heads and is therefore suitable for use
on soft bases. It must be placed on the end of the plunger and/or fixed side, instead of the ram head.
Make sure that the load is always held right in the middle of the opposite ram head.
3.15 Wedge piece
The wedge piece has a sharp V-shape and can be used as a chisel to cut sections of bodywork or as a
push-off point in corners where the standard ram head will not fit. It can be placed on the end of the
plunger and/or fixed side, instead of the ram head.
3.16 Connection piece
The connection piece makes it possible to place an accessory at both ends of an extension pipe.
Thanks to this the extension pipe can be used as a prop.
