    Bendpak cylinder rebuild

    Thanks Z2V. Do I need to disconnect the cables or can I remove the bolt and allow the shaft to retract far enough back to slip on the boot?

    Bendpak cylinder rebuild

    I too have a BendPak HD-9 that started leaking two months after the 2 year warranty period. They were unwilling to replace the cylinder at no charged and instead sent me a rubber boot (looks like a CV boot) to install on the cylinder so that hydraulic fluid doesn't drip on my car. I received...

    The Liftmaster won't work with a Wayne Dalton torque master...you will have to change it out to a traditional type spring. I had a high lift conversion and new spring installed for $225.

    New Member from S. Florida. High lift conversion questions!

    Seems a little high. High lift conversion should run you no more than $300 installed. You can buy the Liftmaster 8500 on-line for $285 (www.northshorecommercialdoor.com)...it is an easy install that will save you a few hundred dollars.

    New Member from S. Florida. High lift conversion questions!

    Compressor wiring questions

    I have the same compressor. Added a 30 amp breaker and wired it to an outlet. Added a cord and plug to the compressor instead of hard wiring to a disconnect box.

    bendpak 9 set up issues

    I recently had my HD-9 installed and was experiencing a similar issue. Turns out that I was shipped a European spec unit that had an additional spring that had to be removed as the locks could not overcome the additional spring tension. I suggest you give BendPak a call.

    BendPak HD-9 Runway Adjustment

    Recently purchased a BendPak HD-9 and had it installed last week. Inquired with the guys installing the lift regarding adjustability of the runways. They indicated that they were not adjustable and holes would have to be drilled in order to accommodate any adjustment. While looking at the...

    Wall mounted fan recommendations

    Looking for an oscillating, wall mounted fan recommendation. Looked at Northern Tool but the fans are not rated as being too good. Looking for something that will move some air around my 22' x 33' garage but don't want to break the bank to do it. Does anybody have anything they recommend for...
