Ellis Shore Jack Wrench
The Ellis Jack makes leveling of shores and purlins simple. The Jack grips the wood of the lower shore member and the upper shore member is raised about one inch per stroke through the lifting pressure of the cam at the anchored end of the Jack handle.
Specifications
The Ellis Jack is used in conjunction with Ellis Methods to level forms used in concrete construction. Only a few Ellis Jacks are needed around the job ā one for each 100 Ellis Shores.
Demonstration Video
One worker, using the Ellis Jack, can level shores by themself. He/She simply holds the JackĀ by the handle with one hand, slips it onto the lower shore member just below the bottom of the upper member, using his other hand to guide the back plate into position. Then jacks theĀ handle one stroke, which raises the upper member and the form it is supporting about 1-inch. Then jars the back plate loose and slips it up into position for the next stroke. Time required for each stroke is about 5-seconds. A story pole and level line may be used for measuring story heightĀ to which form must be adjusted.
