Harbor Freight Scissor Lift VS Tractors and SCUT's

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I needed to do some mid winter work on the Husqvarna GT52 garden tractor so I thought I'd make a short video covering the new lifts usefulness. Although I clearly need to build ramps for it, the lift is great for this type of work!

    We were talking about getting one of these or something like it. My husband fixes push mowers, Lawn Boys are the specialty. :) He does need one of these. Thanks for the review.

    Awesome lift! I would have never guessed it could lift that high! If I can find one to pick up my 7.3 excursion, that would be great!

    Man I doubt this one could pull that off. I wouldn't go past 5500lbs. just to be safe. I do love it though and it works with frame on stuff like my old 95 Toyota T100 as good as modern unibody stuff.

    It really does make that garden tractor into a "Real Tractor" doesn't it? I've done some pretty heavy duty jobs with my setup around here over these last few years.

    I've been looking to see if there is a simple quick modification that would allow a lift like this to lift at the frame so I could pull wheels and do brake work on ATV's, golf carts, etc. I guess a jack stand type device might work but may not be worth the trouble.

    We love our cats here at Farpoint. They have made a few special guest appearances over the years in the various videos I've uploaded. If you liked last nights show, hang in there as that was not our best. Hopefully I'll be over this cold and ready to go again for this weeks show. "future tech and lost cultures" I can't wait!

    Always nice not having to get up off the concrete and your back and knees hurt for the next hour , we ain’t getting any younger !! Looks practical and useful for many jobs 👍 what is the weight capacity ? Didn’t I see that Yugo up on it a few videos ago 🤔 ??

    The weight limit is 6000 pounds, so more than enough for any of the vehicles I have here on the farm. I wish I had bought this last year, but no.. The Yugo was done entirely on the ground. This year when I started looking for my winter project I decided that I couldn't do that trick anymore and went out to find this lift. Now it's mid-winter and I STILL haven't found a project car. A little bummed, but it is what it is.

    Exactly how would this help if you were going to "go ahead" and remove a tire? It seems to me leaving the tractor on the ground and jacking one end would work best for that.

    Put a 2x6 across the lift and jack up which side you need. I think it would be better than on the ground. It would work for me, may not have thought that 40 yrs ago.

    Y'know, it is not necessary to run the throttle WIDE OPEN whenever you drive your tractor. Thats just when mowing or working. You can lower the throttle to drive about, especially when driving up onto a lift. !

    I try not to run full throttle on this one, the owners manual said not to and so far I have not really seen a need for it.

    This lift it more for cars and trucks, but you can use it for tractors. I have since built a 3/4 inch plywood frame for it so that I can lift a tractor up, and then put it on jack stands to work on the trans or wheels. It's nice on the back!

    Wouldn't take much thought to put some D rings on it like on a trailer, and use a 1" ratchet strap to secure the mower, atv, utv, golf cart, wheel chair, etc. to it.
