| Contd :- -2- Minimum height - not greater than...... 6.50" Initial hand adjustment - not less than 3.50" Mechanical lift - not less than....... 5.50" Total intended height - not less than.. 15.50" We prefer a sound mechanical Jack to the hydraulic types; from one experience the latter are costly and invariably leak oil, although they are very easy to operate.
