Mannesmann 007-T-GS5 5-tonne hydraulic bottle jack, 195–350 mm lift

For car owners who need a hydraulic jack rated for loads up to 5 tonnes, the Mannesmann 007-T-GS5 offers a bottle-jack format for vehicle lifting. Its lifting height runs from 195 mm to 350 mm. Choose this style when a compact, upright jack suits the task, a different lifting setup may suit a different workshop requirement.

The 5-tonne capacity and defined height range make it easier to check the jack against the lifting task before use. Its cast-iron construction and bottle-jack design suit car lifting where this format is appropriate. The overload valve is a documented safety feature, while TÜV-GS testing and certification provide an additional point of reference when choosing workshop equipment.

How to use it

Use the jack for lifting a car, positioning it only at the vehicle’s designated jacking point and on a firm, level surface. Check that the vehicle’s lifting point and the intended load are suitable for the jack, and that the required lift falls between 195 mm and 350 mm. Operate the jack in line with its instructions and the vehicle manufacturer’s guidance. If work requires access beneath a raised vehicle, support the vehicle with appropriately rated axle stands, never rely on a jack alone for support.

In a practical tyre-change or inspection scenario, the height range helps establish whether the jack can provide the lift needed at the relevant jacking point. The bottle format keeps the focus on lifting rather than serving as a general-purpose workshop tool, making it a straightforward choice for a specific vehicle-lifting role.

Getting the most from it

Before lifting, consider the vehicle’s designated jacking point, the load and the clearance needed. The jack’s 195 mm minimum height and 350 mm maximum lifting height give useful measurements for that check. Keeping the lifting task within those dimensions helps match the jack to the job, while the overload valve and TÜV-GS certification are relevant features to consider when selecting equipment for car maintenance.

What to clarify

What is the maximum load capacity? The stated load capacity is 5 tonnes. Match the jack to the vehicle and lifting point, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions when lifting.

What lifting heights does it cover? Its minimum height is 195 mm and its maximum lifting height is 350 mm, so check the clearance and required lift at the vehicle’s designated jacking point before use.

Can it be used for car lifting? Yes. It is listed for cars and is a hydraulic bottle jack. Use it on a firm, level surface, and use suitable axle stands to support a vehicle during work beneath it.

When it makes sense

The 007-T-GS5 is suited to car owners looking for a bottle jack with a 5-tonne capacity, a 195–350 mm lifting range and a safety overload valve. Its defined dimensions and TÜV-GS certification help make the choice more specific: it is a practical fit when those lifting figures and the bottle-jack format match the vehicle and the task.
