ABSTRACT:
A scaffold jack includes a jack housing mounted for slidable movement on a vertical post. The jack housing has a support beam projecting horizontally therefrom upon which a working platform is supported above the ground. A ratchet mechanism on the housing includes a pawl which will cooperate with apertures in the vertical post to allow upward movement of the jack housing and support the housing above the ground. A winch is mounted to the jack housing and has a hook and cable connected thereto which may be connected to a bracket journaled in an aperture at the upper end of the post, such that the jack housing may be winched upwardly. A pair of horizontally oriented rigid legs are provided which are connectable to the post and to an adjacent vertical wall structure, such that the post may be stabilized in a vertical orientation.
