How to use the jack that comes with the Magotan?

[WestonAnn]

The steps to use the jack that comes with the Magotan are: 1. Park the vehicle on a flat and solid surface and engage the handbrake; 2. Locate the designated jacking points on the vehicle's chassis and position the jack directly beneath them; 3. Use the jack's crank handle to turn the screw rod clockwise; 4. When the jack is about to contact the vehicle's support point, ensure that the jack is properly aligned with it; 5. After confirming the alignment, continue turning the screw rod to lift the vehicle. Taking the 2020 Magotan as an example, it is a mid-size sedan with the following dimensions: length 4865mm, width 1832mm, height 1471mm, wheelbase 2871mm, and a curb weight of 1445kg.

I've been driving a Magotan for several years, and using the built-in jack is all about safety. First, park the car on a flat and solid surface, engage the handbrake, and shift to P gear to ensure stability and avoid the risk of sliding. The jack is usually located in the spare tire compartment, which can be accessed by lifting the trunk mat. Locate the lifting points under the car body, marked by raised metal indicators near the wheels—these are the designated spots. Then, slowly turn the handle to lift the car, being careful not to raise it too high—just enough to change the tire. Avoid going under the car or shaking it forcefully during the process. After changing the tire, gently turn the jack counterclockwise to lower the car slowly, and once removed, make sure to put it back in place and check for any damage. Remember, never rely solely on the jack to support the entire car while changing a tire—always use anti-slip blocks or stands for additional support. I learned this the hard way when I was younger and nearly crushed my hand—safety always comes first.

When I first used the built-in jack on my newly purchased Magotan last year, I was super nervous. I found it near the spare tire in the trunk—it was a screw-type jack that required manual turning. After parking the car on a level surface, I engaged the handbrake and put it in gear to secure it. There was a small mark near the door frame indicating the lifting point, so I aligned the jack there and made sure it was stable. Then, I turned the handle clockwise to slowly lift the car, keeping an eye out to prevent any tilting. Lifting until the tire was about 1-2 cm off the ground was enough to fit the new spare tire and tighten the bolts. Finally, I lowered the car by turning the handle counterclockwise and packed up the tools. After practicing once, I realized it was quite simple—the key is to take it slow and steady. I recommend beginners practice in the garage with the car unloaded to get a feel for it. Once familiar, you won’t panic during an actual breakdown. A little tip for the trunk: clean and store the jack properly after use to extend its lifespan.

Using the Magotan's built-in jack is straightforward. Open the trunk and locate the tools next to the spare tire—it's a manual screw-type jack. Park the car, engage the handbrake, and shift into P mode, ensuring the ground is firm and level. Squat down to inspect the chassis, aligning the wheel's protrusion with the jack's groove. Turn the handle to raise the car to a sufficient height for tire replacement. After changing the tire, reverse the rotation to lower the car—job done. Throughout the process, maintain smooth movements to avoid shaking. Regularly check the jack for smooth operation when stored; it can be a lifesaver in emergencies.

I've driven several cars, and the Magotan's jack is quite user-friendly. Here are the steps: Park the vehicle securely and engage the handbrake, retrieve the jack from the spare tire compartment, align it with the marked points on the body, and slowly lift. When changing tires, maintain a moderate height and avoid lowering it too abruptly to prevent shaking. Additional tips: Regularly inspect the jack's gears for rust and ensure they are lubricated, store it in the trunk without heavy items on top. Clean it promptly after use to prevent corrosion, and repair immediately if there are any unusual noises. This ensures reliability in critical moments, keeping you safe and worry-free.

Once I hastily changed a tire by the roadside using the Magotan's jack and nearly slipped because I forgot to check the ground—a profound lesson. The correct method: Park on a hard, level surface, engage the handbrake, and shift into gear. Open the trunk and retrieve the jack from the spare tire well, aligning it with the designated lift point—marked by specific metal imprints on the vehicle body. Turn the handle to gradually raise the car, and after replacing the tire, lower it steadily. Tips: Handle the jack gently when placing it, and regularly check the storage area to avoid clutter. In emergencies, always review the manual to confirm steps and prevent accidents.
