JACK SET FOR GRANITE SURFACE PLATE 5 JACKS PER SET

How to Use a 5-Piece Jack Set:

1. Placement of Jacks:

   • Arrange the five jacks under the surface plate in strategic locations: typically four jacks near the corners and one jack in the center for added support. This ensures even distribution of the weight and maintains the flatness of the plate.

2. Adjusting the Height:

   • Use the adjustment mechanism on each jack to raise or lower the height of the surface plate until it is level. A precision level or dial indicator can be used to check the flatness of the plate as adjustments are made.

3. Locking the Height:

   • Once the plate is level, lock each jack in place to prevent any movement or settling over time. Ensure that the plate remains securely supported and stable during use.

4. Regular Checks:

   • Periodically check the level of the plate, especially if it is subjected to heavy use or environmental changes. If necessary, make slight adjustments to the jacks to maintain the flatness of the surface.

A 5-piece jack set for a granite surface plate is an essential tool for supporting, leveling, and adjusting large granite surface plates. It provides precise control over the plate's height and alignment, ensures even weight distribution, and helps isolate the plate from environmental vibrations. Whether used for installation, calibration, or ongoing support, a jack set is a valuable addition to any workshop or laboratory that uses granite surface plates for precision measurement and inspection.
