What happens here
This step introduces a range of CAT-branded floor jacks, emphasizing their features for vehicle maintenance. The first jack shown is a 2-ton model that comes bundled with two jack stands, simplifying the process of lifting a vehicle and immediately securing it. The second, a 3-ton low-profile jack, is highlighted as a top seller, suitable for lifting dropped cars and trucks. The third jack, also a 3-ton model but with large, off-road wheels, is designed for maneuvering across rough terrain like gravel or sand, making it ideal for repairs in challenging environments. This off-road jack also features an extended saddle that can be adjusted in height by inserting a pin, providing a great lifting range. The quick lifting action of the jacks is also demonstrated.
Goal: Understand the features and applications of various CAT-branded floor jacks.
