ColumbusJACK/Regent’s Model 179D1100-56 is a 50 ton axle jack capable of jacking an aircraft using an
air operated pump or a hand pump. A rain hat is provided to protect the cylinder assembly from the envi-
ronment. An “Evac-U-Tract” air assisted ram retraction system is provided to assist in the retraction of the
cylinder rams when the single release valve is opened. An automatic safety valve is provided to bypass
