Where should the jack be placed on the Equinox?
1 Answers
Equinox's jack should be placed in the side groove closest to the tire being replaced. Precautions for using a jack: Every jack has its designed maximum load capacity. Never support a weight exceeding this limit to prevent insufficient support and potential accidents. When lifting the vehicle, try to remove heavy items from the car. How a jack works: Jacks are divided into mechanical jacks and hydraulic jacks, each with different principles. Hydraulic jacks maintain consistent pressure throughout the liquid, allowing different pressures at different ends through liquid transmission to achieve lifting. Mechanical jacks operate on mechanical principles, where the repeated movement of the handle causes the lifting sleeve to rise or lower, achieving the lifting function.
