Safety Features
- Ram Lock Nut: Prevents the lowering of the ram. The ram lock nut must be lowered as the aircraft is being lifted. Ram lock nuts must be kept within 2" of the stop while raising the aircraft.
- Hold-to-Run Air Valve: Requires the operator to hold the air valve lever to raise the ram using the air pump. Releasing the air valve lever stops the upward movement of the ram.
- Lock Nut Retention Ring: Prevents the lock nut from being unscrewed from the second stage.
- Pressure Relief Valve: Prevents overload during raising operations.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The hand pump is equipped with a pressure relief valve that prevents over-pressurization during lifting. This safeguard protects both the jack and the aircraft from excessive hydraulic pressure, reducing the risk of component failure or unsafe conditions. It ensures compliance with safety standards while giving technicians peace of mind.
The threaded ram features an improved hand wheel-style safety nut designed to lock the ram securely in place once the aircraft is raised. This prevents unintended lowering and provides an additional layer of protection beyond the hydraulic system. The design allows for smooth operation while prioritizing aircraft and technician safety.
Yes, the jack is built with a quick-rising center extension that allows operators to achieve the required lifting height faster. This feature minimizes setup time and improves efficiency in busy maintenance environments. It is especially helpful when servicing aircraft with higher lifting points.
The Tronair 02-7844C0111 tripod jack is designed for use with MIL-PRF-5606 hydraulic fluid, a widely used aviation-grade hydraulic oil. Using the specified fluid ensures optimal performance and protects the internal seals and components from damage. Always follow OEM service guidelines when selecting hydraulic fluids.
Despite its heavy-duty design, the jack includes large industrial-grade wheels that make it easier to maneuver around the hangar or ramp. The wheels are built to handle the unit’s weight while allowing technicians to position it accurately at the aircraft’s lifting points.
This tripod jack features a 3/4" (2 cm) spherical radius cup jack pad, designed to provide a secure interface with aircraft jack points. The spherical design reduces stress concentrations and ensures stable load transfer during lifting.
The unit is finished with a durable powder coat in Tronair Blue, a protective layer that resists corrosion and wear. This coating enhances the jack’s service life in demanding hangar environments and provides a professional appearance consistent with Tronair’s equipment line.
Yes, the Tronair 02-7844C0111 tripod jack carries the CE mark, indicated by the “C” as the eighth digit in the part number. The CE marking demonstrates compliance with European safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.
This certification ensures that the jack can be used in both U.S. and international maintenance environments and provides operators with confidence that the equipment meets rigorous quality and performance standards for aircraft ground support equipment.
The design includes an easy-access filler/breather cap that simplifies topping off or changing hydraulic fluid. This reduces downtime and ensures technicians can maintain proper fluid levels quickly and efficiently.
Yes, the jack is rugged enough for ramp use; however, outdoor operation should always be performed on stable, level ground. Operators should take care in adverse weather conditions, as wind and uneven surfaces can impact stability. Indoor storage is recommended to extend service life.
While smaller jacks may be adequate for light aircraft or business jets, the 30-ton model offers the higher capacity needed for larger airframes. It incorporates the same durable design features found across Tronair’s jack lineup, including safety nuts, pressure relief valves, and easy mobility.
Routine checks should include inspecting hydraulic fluid levels, verifying the integrity of the safety nut and threaded ram, and ensuring wheels and casters roll freely. Periodic load testing should be performed to meet FAA and OEM compliance requirements. Following Tronair’s service guidelines will maximize reliability and extend equipment life.
