ABSTRACT:
An attachment or accessory to a wheeled floor jack of the type that rolls during use is disclosed. The accessory comprises a flat, elongated guard sized to receive and carry the wheels of the jack and to captivate them within it. The accessory provides a flat platform or base on which and within which the jack can roll and over which the weight lifted can be spread and serves to keep the wheels from the ambient surface. The attachment thus overcomes the problem encountered when using such jacks on a soft surface, such as snow, sand, dirt or asphalt, of having the wheels embed and the jack "snow plow," or slip. The attachment is designed to remain attached to the jack after insertion, but to easily receive the jack and be removed from it. The attachment also aids in handling the jack and limits or eliminates undesirable rolling, for example, when the jack is stored in the trunk of an automobile.
