A pipe removal jack is used to remove the vertical pipe. It consists of a jaw designed to lock against the vertical pipe when upward force is applied to the jack handle. A 3-inch vertical jack support stand rests on the deck surface for support while the jack is in use. The optional 7-foot jack support stand can be used to remove pipes that have been driven into a clay bed. To use this stand, you must apply downward force to the ground. The removal jack arm has an adjustable sleeve that can be locked to the desired height on the jack stand. One end of the jack arm is comprised of a bracket for jaw attachment, while the other consists of a pipe handle to which force is applied.
When you remove a portion of your weight off of the deck surface and apply it to the jaw, the vertical dock pipe will be released from the tough bottom.
