Operation
This section covers normal operation of your Rolling Bridge Jack.
Safety Rules
Important: Your safety is dependent on reading, understanding, and implementing these Safety
Rules.
Do not skip over them; read them carefully and follow them!
To use your Rolling Bridge Jack safely:
• Never stand under or walk under a Rolling Bridge Jack when the Lift is raised, whether there is a
vehicle on the Jack or not. Safety first:
walk around!
• Check daily to make sure all Rollers are sitting correctly either on the Utility Rail or in the Utility
Channel, depending on model. If one or more Rollers come off the Utility Rail or out of the Utility
Channel, it could fall.
⚠ DANGER If you ever see any of the Rollers off the Utility Rail, out of the Utility Channel, or
moving strangely, immediately move all persons away from the Lift and the Rolling
Bridge Jack. When everyone is out of the way, carefully lower the Lift to the ground
(if it is raised) and drive the vehicle off (if there is a vehicle on the Lift), as long as
these things can be done safely. When the Lift is fully lowered, put the Rollers back
onto the Utility Rail or the Utility Channel, then make sure the Adjustment Bolts and
the Safety Brackets are installed and operating correctly. Do not attempt to put the
Rollers back onto the Utility Rail or the Utility Channel from underneath the Rolling
Bridge Jack.
• After moving or using your Rolling Bridge Jack, check to make sure the Rollers are sitting correctly
either on the Utility Rail or in the Utility Channel.
⚠ WARNING Use care when using your Rolling Bridge Jack. If it falls when the Lift is raised, it can
damage the Jack, the ground underneath, or cause significant injury to anyone
underneath it. BendPak strongly recommends no one, ever, walk
underneath your Rolling Bridge Jack when the Lift is raised.
• Always keep the Utility Rail Channels clean. If there are liquid spills, wipe them up. If there is debris,
clean it up. If anything other than your Rolling Bridge Jack is in the Utility Rail Channels, move
those things out of the way.
• Before lowering the Lift, check underneath it to make sure there are no obstructions on the ground
under the Rolling Bridge Jack. If there is something underneath the Rolling Bridge Jack, move it
out of the way. The issue here is that if the Jack hits an obstruction on the ground, it could push
the Jack out of position or off the Utility Rail, increasing the chances that it could fall in the future.
• Before driving a vehicle onto the Lift, make sure the Rolling Bridge Jack is fully lowered.
• Before and after driving a vehicle onto the Lift, check to make sure the Rollers are sitting correctly
on the Utility Rail or in the Utility Channel, depending on model.
• If a vehicle accidentally knocks the Rolling Bridge Jack when being driven either onto or off of the
Lift, the Jack may no longer be secure. Check to make sure the Rollers are sitting correctly on the
Utility Rail or in the Utility Channel, the Adjustment Bolts and Safety Brackets and in place and
operating normally, and the Rolling Bridge Jack is not damaged. If you find any of these situations,
take the Jack out of service and fix the issues before resuming use of the Rolling Bridge Jack.
