The cable broke on our outdoor pressure washing lift, two months after a complete inspection of all of our lifts! One never knows, accidents happen. Car fortunately has minimal damage. Will post pictures of the lifting and repair later

Thanks for posting the pictures! It's a good reminder that it's an imperfect world we live in and things can and will go wrong. I for one will be checking my jacks and support system tonight, just to make sure nothing has slipped or moved.
It's a drag that it happened, that's for sure. Hurts to look at it all the way from San Diego. Glad no one was in the way of it falling. I can't recall how many times I've stood close to the lift as it was going up. Gonna take a step back from now on, that's for sure. |
