Tommy Lift

[@fireball4thewin108]

I have a model 1000 from the 70s does anyone know how to look up parts and a manual for it? I can't find it on the tommy lift website

I pinned this comment, hopefully someone can help

Thank you for sharing your video. I picked one up at a scrap yard today. It's not installed yet. I put power to it and by surprise it works! Watching your video gave me a better understanding of how to get into and service mine.

Thanks for this. Details like this are surprisingly hard to find.

I needed that video....picking up an early model tommy lift and hoped to test it before I leave with it....I suspect I can test with a standard 12v car battery now I know the positioning of things for operation.

[@YoungbloodFamilyFarm]

I think you are right, a properly placed set of jumper cables works well, hope the lift works

my neighbor has one and we used it to lift my liberty save that weight a butt load. They are very useful.

[@YoungbloodFamilyFarm]

I always thought they were great, and then I moved a refrigerator by myself, then I knew they were awesome!

Thank you sir

Got one used for a good price. My brother and I just installed it yesterday and it slows up and doesn’t close the Last 6”. I can push it the final 6” and latch it closed however. Could that be a Cable Wire issue or….? 🤔🤔

How the fluid level? Does the hydraulic line need to be bled?

[@JunkNGrind]

@@YoungbloodFamilyFarm 😁. I have No idea man. I’m not to great at this kind of stuff. My uncle is a diesel mechanic and he is gonna look at it for me this week. I’m asking if it’s messed up or it can be easily fixed with a tune up (Grease it and Hydraulic fluid) I guess. Thank You for replying sir 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼💪🏼

Thank youI was lost,

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

I like those Tommy Lift

[@jasonchampion9932]

Thank you 🙏

Your a little low on your hydraulic oil in the lift. That is why its goes slower at the top. Be a good idea to rebuild your cylinder. Tommy has a nice kit to help you do it

[@YoungbloodFamilyFarm]

Thank You

[@mr.artdepot3626]

That’s my exact question and answer sir ! Slows up at the last 6” and I have to close it myself

[@chrisalexander7024]

What type of oil do you use in this lift? I haven’t had much luck searching.

[@YoungbloodFamilyFarm]

I have used regular hydraulic oil, not sure if that is correct but seems to work. Here is a link to manuals. www.tommygate.com/service-and-parts/document-library/

[@keithsalminen2420]

Nice tool to lift heavy stuff into the box! How much weight can it handle?

[@YoungbloodFamilyFarm]

I was told 1500 lbs

[@bonnieharrell8297]

Does anyone know how much the value of my truck would increase for having an eagle 1000 lb lift gate on it? And yes it's operational
