Re: Elevators/ Forklifts

The forklift we used in 2005 worked reasonably well, the only problem was we had issues with the cable not spooling right. We found out that the cause of our spooling issues came from powering it with the van door motor which would stall out as we got higher. When the van door motor stalled the whole lift would come crashing down to its starting position without spooling the cable.
