Rolling Mavericks Ultralight Enduro Trail -tunkkiteline 3.0

Use at Your Own Risk

Using the Trail Jack makes the motorcycle unstable. It is intended only for emergency use on the trail. Maximum safe weight of motorcycle and luggage combined  400 KG

Do not use it as a workshop stand.
Always use on firm, stable, flat ground.

Never use on soft surfaces where the jack may sink and cause the motorcycle to fall.

Preparations Before Lifting a Wheel

Find a firm, stable, flat surface and park your motorcycle on its side stand.
If you are removing a wheel, loosen the axle nut before lifting the bike.

Front Wheel in the Air

Put the motorcycle in first gear to lock the rear wheel and prevent rolling.

Rear Wheel in the Air

Use the supplied double-sided Velcro strap to lock the front brake lever.
For extra safety, place stones, logs, sand, or other solid objects in front of and behind the wheel.

Raising the Motorcycle

On the side stand, the bike leans to one side. Position yourself on the opposite side when using the Trail Jack.

Make sure the ground can support the jack. If not, prevent the foot from sinking (for example, by using a solid base).

Choosing a Jacking Point

Select a solid, secure point on the bike:

• Rear wheel: rear swingarm

• Front wheel: near the front of the engine

• A frame tube or a hole in the bash plate that fits the yoke also works well
  

Make sure the chosen point is stable and cannot slip.

Note: Test this at home before heading out. You may need to drill a 13 mm hole in the bash plate to fit the Y-holder.

Do not use foot pegs unless you are certain they are fixed. Most are hinged and can fold unexpectedly, causing the bike to fall.

Setting the Correct Height

Place the jack vertically with its foot on the ground near the jacking point to estimate the required length.

The goal:

• The wheel is just off the ground

• The jack is as vertical as possible

Too much angle = instability.
Do not lift higher than necessary.

Press the button clip and slightly twist the inner tube to slide it freely without locking into each hole.
Once the correct height is found, let it engage.

As a guideline, the jack should be about 5–7 cm taller than the jacking point.

Lifting the Wheel

Position the yoke under the jacking point. The jack will naturally sit at a slight angle.

Hold the lower tube with one hand and gently push the bike onto the side stand with the other until the jack slides into place.

Aim to keep the jack as vertical as possible. The wheel should be just off the ground—not excessively high.

If the angle is too steep or the height is off, reset the bike and adjust the jack length.

This takes practice—try it at home before relying on it in the field.

Stability Check

Before working on the bike, test stability.

Gently wiggle the motorcycle while staying ready to step away if needed.
Only proceed when you are confident the setup is stable.

Maintenance

Keep all parts clean and free of sand, mud, or debris. The tubes fit tightly, and dirt can prevent smooth operation.

You can rinse the tubes with water (for example, from a CamelBak).
Remove the black foot and inner tube with the button clip before rinsing.
