A base jack is a tool used in construction to adjust the height of scaffoldings or formwork. Here are the steps to use a base jack:
Position the base plate of the base jack underneath the scaffolding or formwork leg that you want to adjust.
Turn the threaded stem of the base jack clockwise to raise the scaffolding or formwork leg, or counterclockwise to lower it.
Use a spirit level to check that the scaffolding or formwork is level and adjust the height of the base jack as necessary until it is level.
Tighten the lock nut on the threaded stem of the base jack to secure the height adjustment.
It's important to note that you should never exceed the maximum load capacity of the base jack, which is typically specified by the manufacturer. Always make sure the scaffolding or formwork is stable and secure before using a base jack. Additionally, if you're not familiar with using base jacks, it's recommended that you seek the guidance of a professional before attempting to use them on your own.
