What is a "toe jack"?
A toe jack is a lifting tool used to raise heavy equipment or machinery from the ground by lifting at the base or "toe" of the object. It has a small lifting surface, often with a narrow design, allowing it to fit into tight spaces under large or bulky items. The jack is operated using a hydraulic mechanism, enabling it to lift heavy loads with minimal effort. Toe jacks are commonly used in construction, maintenance, or industrial settings to lift and move heavy equipment or machinery, especially in situations where other types of jacks may not fit.
Example
