Platform lift

[Ntolerance]

This is the fourth manual hyd lift I have owned over the years

I always seem to get in a jam and sell it.

Picked this up on craigslist this week for $50

Didn't work. was on there for a month before I saw it

Owner was a tool dealer and use it for unloading tool boxes.

He passed away apparently. I didn't ask a lot of questions
Paid the asking price and left.

Added fluid and it works well. 1000 lb capacity

Those are handy and at that price you got a smoking deal. I have a electric one and it's a beast to use, but it's great to have when you need one. Congrats!

I have one like that with a winch to lift the platform.

I use it as a welding table more often than anything.

What a steal!

Can't have too many devices to lift things up.

Sweet deal. Glad you got it working easily.

I have an electric push around fork lift behind my shop. Customers can use it to unload pressure washers when I am on the road. I have it stationary and you just raise it up and back up to it. Has worked well for 15 years or so. Runs off a car battery. Internal charger is bad but we charge it once every several months and it works.

Have an electric hydraulic lift table in the shop for working on machines. 6 ft by 3 ft or so. Will lift a ton and go up close to 6 feet. Doubt I will every sell that even if I sell the business. I am getting too old to bend over and work on things.

Have a small fork lift also. Can't imagine being without one of those either

Have a fork lift too.

This is exactly what I am looking for. When you want one they are never around or cheap it seems

Don't worry. If history is anything to go by il be in a jam soon and need to sell

I've got one that looks exactly like that - a factory that was closing down had dozens of them - $25 eah . I bought 3 and went back for more a week later and they were all gone. I gave 2 two friends and kept one. I would sell a lot of things before the lift - it has a life saver for me. The only problem I have had is that the release button tends to stick in which requires me to "manipulate" it.
