Not sure what ocured but when I removed the trolly jack handle the jack socket went into upright position. Now I cannot get the jack handle back in. Any advise ?

Use a shorter socket wrench, a piece of pipe...are you serious?

Yes. Cannot get leverage with a socket wrench tried it already.

i dunno if you can get a really big strong person to lift up your car and then you can put the handle back in?

blackcherry20 · 05-08-2014, 08:38 PM

Has to be some kind of release other than the handle location. Find it.

Get a second jack (like the factory one) and jack it up higher, pull that one out and lower..?

I read the manual twice. There is a square key inside the handle location.

Does the pedal raise or lower the car? I forgot

Pedal raises the jack (same as the normal handle).

@OP, with this jack there is no reason to take the handle out.

I believe there is a screw to hold the handle in.

And couldn't he press the foot pedal down then move the place for the handle down easier?

gomer_110 · 05-08-2014, 09:29 PM

guessing if he can't get enough leverage on the handle receiver he won't be able to get enough on the pedal.

Best bet at this point is probably to get something on the square piece to lower the car onto the jack stands and then pull the jack out and put the handle in properly. USE THE SET SCREW SO THE HANDLE CAN'T COME OUT.
