TRACK JACKS, TRACK LINERS Ratchet Lever Jacks “Quick-Trip” Jacks AL-87 AL-88 AL-89 Hydraulic Manual Track Jacks are used for a variety of track maintenance jobs such as surfacing, tamping, and lining track. Rugged construction permits full capacity to be used on the toe or cap of the jack. The jacks are designed to be used in conjunction with a lining bar (sold separately, see page IV-23) which fits into the square socket hole at the backside of the jack. Ratchet level jacks work on the same principle as automatic tire jacks: load is raised or lowered “tooth-by-tooth.” Jack cannot be tripped under load. Quick-Trip jacks have “quick-trip” feature when under load. Requires skilled operator.

Trip lowering jacks quickly drop the load and cannot be safely lowered incrementally. They should not be used for general purpose lifting. Track Liners are a husky, low-cost maintenance tool. Together with a lining bar (sold separately), this device is used to align tangent and curved track. Years of satisfactory service to the industry have identified these desirable features: • • • • • Liners do not hump track No digging at end of ties is necessary Light, compact - liner weighs only 28 lbs Built for heavy duty and long life Forward movement comes from lifting on lining bar - safer and more effective than downward pull IV – 24 (503) 286-3691 FAX (503) 286-2097 © 2007 www.HarmerSteel.com sales@harmersteel.com
