If you look close on the uprights on the sides there are 2 channels that go across the top and on this there is a plate on top + a matching plate on the bottom that hold the ram in position so there is no way it can kick out to the side. It isw a good design and very strong, i have used it well beyond its rated capacity with the 20 ton jack with no problem. tom
