They're delicate in the sense that you cant abuse them and stall them, but as long as you design for them and dont stall them it shouldn't be a problem. If we find theyre not holding up we can always switch to the 775's but I think we will be fine.

We're running 2 through a 32:1 reduction to a 2.5" pulley. Under full load they will only be drawing 20 amps collectively. Our elevator is light
