Abstract (en)

A vehicle jack 10 has a body 18 with a ground-engaging foot 24 and a vehicle engaging member 28 mounted on the body 18 for movement relative to the body 18 in the operation of the jack by a drive assembly 12 to engage and move part of a vehicle. The assembly 12 comprises a shaft 14 rotatable about an axis A and a headed member 30 secured to the shaft 14. A handle 36 for rotating the shaft 14 about the axis A is carried by the member 30 with part of the member projecting through a slot in the handle 36 so that the handle 36 can be moved relative to the axis A to adjust the operational position of the handle 36 e.g. to avoid a hand of an operator striking the ground when using the jack.
