TEMCo Hydraulic Container Machine Toe Jack, 5-10 Ton Lift Capacity, TH0023

temco hydraulic container machine toe jack — what the listing actually specifies

What to check before you buy

On lifting and load-moving equipment the rated capacity is the control. Match the published capacity to the heaviest load you will actually move, never exceed it, and keep everyone clear of the load path while it is moving. Inspect hooks, chain, forks and hydraulics before use; take anything with a deformed hook, stretched chain or leaking ram out of service rather than repairing it in place.

Combined capacity across the set

Machine skates are rated per unit and used in sets. The usable capacity is the set rating with the load distributed - not the sum assuming perfect balance.

Floor condition

Skates concentrate very high point loads through small rollers. Cracks, expansion joints, drains and coatings all matter more than they do for wheeled carts.

Load center height

Tall equipment on low skates tips easily. The higher the center of gravity, the more the load needs restraint before it moves.

Steering and control

A steerable unit at the leading corner makes the difference between a controlled move and a load that goes where the floor decides.
