Have the winch line come in the center and attach directly to the finger brake. Then you can lift it and move the shop press center channel, lower the finger brake to the ground, and put the channel back in. I saw it do this way on another channel with a press that has a press cylinder that can move side to side.
Drill a hole in the middle of handle and the snap hook will go in no need for a carabiner and great way to save ya back mate all hydraulic press should come like this
Frank, could you just drill a couple holes in the handles of the beams instead of getting carabiners? Also are there any kind of stops in the pins under your beams, maybe drill a couple holes in them and put some hair pins in if they don’t to keep them from vibrating out. Thanks for sharing, see you next week.
Hi Frank, I replaced my hyd Jack with an air/hyd several years ago. So far I’ve not used it, I still pump the handle because it’s easy. Should have saved the money
need that on mine and been wanting to fab some kind of safety shield on casters maybe expanded metal so many times when i'm using the press something comes flying at me
Will you be attending the Red Power Roundup in Grand Island, Ne? They will include the Cub Cadets that were made by IH as well as many other lines that were made by IH
I used to tell all the owners of those presses that those springs need safety cables inside, they all ignored me, didn't even appreciate my suggestion, so I don't bother anymore.
@@ruben_balea That's an excellent idea! They are under a large amount of tension when the cylinder is extended. I'm gonna incorporate both "upgrades" on my Northern Tool press.
Now you need your air hydraulic jack, you will be all set.
I love seeing your dogs!

Great job... always great to see the boys!!! take care.
This is so funny. I just got my cable in to do mine. Thanks for sharing with us.
very creative nice job as farmers we are always thinking outside the box to work smarter, not harder
Beautiful shepherds
Nice job Frank from Madison, VA. Need to do this on my home made press.
My next project!

I had the same idea 👍
I was thinking to just weld a couple of eye bolts on that plate.

Next upgrade is to get the Harbor Freight's air over hydraulic jack replacement.
I like it, I think I will do that for mine too.
Nice and easy!
Nice Very Nice!
Perfect!

No, can't do that. I'm on the East Coast. That's a long way away...
@@woodandmetalshoptime8048 Sorry to hear that. This is the 100 year anniversary of the Farmall tractor, so it will be a special Red Power Roundup.
Frank did you know that Dewalt tools are made by black and decker it's thier commercial line.
Yep!
great idea frank. that is safer and better for you. great job.
What role do those springs play in the normal operation of the press ? Wouldn’t want to be near that thing if they let go.
Return springs.

@@ruben_balea hadn’t even considered that. Cheers for the tip sir!
Gas turned off. That never happens to me!
But great job.
Thoses bronze hooks you have on the cables is as dangerous as a cocked pistol. To break loose have seen dogs break them.
