QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The Columbus Jack 5007-56FT Fly-A-Way Axle Jack is designed to support tire, wheel, and brake replacement tasks on both main and nose landing gears of most narrow- and wide-body aircraft. With a 50-ton (45.4 metric tons) lifting capacity, it meets or exceeds OEM jacking specifications. Its lightweight yet durable build makes it ideal for air transport to remote maintenance locations.
The jack features both manual hand-pump and air-powered pumping options, giving users flexibility in operation depending on available equipment. The manual system ensures continued use in field conditions without external power, while the pneumatic pump saves time during heavy-lift procedures. This dual-pump setup makes it one of the most adaptable axle jacks in its class.
The Evac-U-Tract™ Air-Assisted Ram Retraction System allows for smooth, effortless lowering of the ram after a lift is complete. This feature uses air pressure to retract the piston into the cylinder automatically, reducing operator fatigue and speeding up jack removal. It also prevents hydraulic strain, enhancing the unit’s longevity and safety in regular maintenance use.
Weighing approximately 158 lbs (72 kg) and featuring a mechanical positioning handle with a single roller, the 5007-56FT is easy to maneuver beneath aircraft jacking points. The design prioritizes compactness for air transport, making it a true “fly-away” tool for maintenance teams working in varied environments.
The 5007-56FT features a base width of 7” (17.8 cm) and a base length of 20” (50.8 cm). This compact yet stable footprint provides exceptional balance under high loads while allowing easy placement under low-clearance gear assemblies.
The jack is finished in Skydrol-resistant yellow paint, protecting it from hydraulic fluid exposure, corrosion, and environmental wear. The steel construction ensures strength while maintaining a manageable weight for field operations. Its corrosion-resistant coating makes it suitable for long-term service in both hangar and outdoor environments.
Each Columbus Jack 5007-56FT comes with an Operation and Maintenance Manual, a Certificate of Conformance (CofC), and a Load Test Report. These documents confirm compliance with ISO 9001:2008 quality standards and provide detailed procedures for use, inspection, and troubleshooting. A 12-month factory warranty is also included with new units.
Routine maintenance includes inspecting hydraulic seals, hoses, and fittings for leaks or damage. Columbus Jack recommends using aviation-grade hydraulic fluid and cleaning the unit after exposure to contaminants. Regular inspection ensures optimal performance and prevents seal degradation caused by prolonged exposure to Skydrol or dirt.
This model is compatible with many narrow- and wide-body commercial aircraft, but users should always verify compatibility with their Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM). It’s primarily intended for use on main and nose gear service points and not for structural lifting applications. For aircraft requiring greater capacity, Columbus Jack offers larger tripod and axle jack models.
Before transport, the jack should be fully retracted and secured within its 29” × 12” × 20” shipping crate, which totals 4 cubic feet of space. Always release pressure from the hydraulic system and cover exposed fittings to prevent contamination. Proper storage in a dry, temperature-controlled area will preserve seals and paint integrity.
Columbus Jack provides a 12-month limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. The company’s global service network, which includes PJi, offers parts replacement, recalibration, and overhaul support. This warranty underscores Columbus Jack’s commitment to reliability and long-term performance for aviation ground support tools.
