About Outdoor Operation
Your QuickJack is approved for indoor installation and use only.
Outdoor installation is
prohibited
.
Your QuickJack is portable, however, so if you end up taking it outdoors, remember to protect it from
the weather (for example, from falling dirt, rain, sleet, and snow).
Here are some additional things to consider if you end up taking your QuickJack outside:
•
Extreme environmental conditions must be avoided
. The QuickJack warranty does not
cover damage from rain, snow, sleet, excessive humidity, corrosive agents, hazardous and/or
combustible fibers and flyings, or other contaminants. Keep your QuickJack protected from these
environmental conditions at all times.
•
The QuickJack lifetime may be reduced
. Taking a QuickJack outside means it is subject to
a harsher environment: a QuickJack ages more quickly the more it is outside.
•
Maintenance and replacement parts costs may increase
. The longer you keep your
QuickJack outside, even when protected from the weather, the more often it will need
maintenance: metal parts rust, plastic parts break down and dry out, hydraulic fluid gets dirty
faster, and so on. Keeping your QuickJack outside for long periods is usually going to require extra
maintenance and more frequent replacement parts.
Here are some things customers have told us they did with QuickJacks they took outside:
•
Move it back inside when done
. It may seem obvious, but here it is: when you are done with
your QuickJack outside, even if it was protected from the weather, bring it back inside and
thoroughly clean it.
•
Cover the Power Unit
.
This one is really important
. The Power Unit includes an electric
motor. If that motor gets wet, people could get electrocuted, a fire could start, and almost certainly
the motor will short circuit and stop functioning.
These things are not covered by the
QuickJack warranty
. This advice applies your QuickJack at all times;
keep the Power Unit
protected from all sources of moisture
.
•
Put up a carport canopy, party tent, or other structure
. And then put the QuickJack
under the structure. It blocks the sun and the rain, reducing the impact the outside environment
has on the QuickJack.
•
Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection
. If available, use a GFCI circuit
breaker in the service panel (breaker box) to protect the entire circuit.
•
Increase the maintenance
. If the maintenance instructions say to do something every day,
check it twice a day; if they say to do something once a week, check it two times a week; and so
on. This will help minimize the impact the outside environment has on your QuickJack.
•
Increase the replacement parts
. Parts on a QuickJack you take outside are not going to last
as long as normal. Be prepared to start ordering replacement parts sooner.
