Tieman 1500KG Tail Lift Repair

God damn bolts rattling loose
i'll fix that..

[@francistheodorecatte]

If it keeps rattling the bolts loose, use red loctite and safety wire it. If a bolt manages to work loose with that combo, your machine is probably a single cylinder BSA.

Loose bolts. The Bain of my life...

[@alex993cc1]

hehehehhehe

If that thing has lift ropes in it, I would not hesitate to check them. Lift ropes are one of the most overlooked items in a tail lift, and early failure detection can save your life.

How did you encode this vid? there is horrific interlacing, might be able to help you out with that

[@alex993cc1]

ahh the sony was flat, so i used the J1. it outputs .MOV and i had to install quicktime and i can see its a shitty encode whilst encoding...

[@rotaryhoes]

Worth quite a few thousands dollars these things.....you can really see the value....

[@alex993cc1]

sarcasm detected? you musta used one of these at least once in your time mate?

[@rotaryhoes]

alex993cc1 I live on one of these things. I took one apart once and there was like five pieces to the whole thing and a sheet of metal. They must use gold inside the hydraulics or something. Having said that they are handle things to have!

[@alex993cc1]

rotaryhoes i think its the fact they have a strangle hold on the market perhaps. dunno. yours been generally reliable?

[@rotaryhoes]

alex993cc1 Yeah they are very reliable. Only problems I seem to have is the flashing lights like to keep stop working and on one of the new ones it has foot controls and unless you are a sheep with hooves it can be a pain. The new one has raised buttons to stand on and works really well.

[@HDXFH]

[@wickedxe]

[@FrontSideBus]

Nice easy fix. I hoped you ripped them off for it! :)
