@@patriotu.s.elections7879 Thanks for watching! :)
Greetings from Poland, kupczyk is polish brand💪
Hey man, these are great tips!! Thank you very much for sharing!
This is the best mid rise lift. This lift is sold under many names but it’s awesome. I got rid of the Quickjack and bought this style of lift. And most importantly, it makes you feel safe.
Thanks for watching. I never had the Quickjack and I think it is practical how portable it is, but this seems definitely stronger. 👍
Thanks for sharing. Perfect timing as I am looking for a scissor lift myself here in North America. Most of the brands here are indeed Chinese sourced too (so I believe TwinBush as well). Ingenious design of the mods. Love it. For my use I would prefer to dolly the lift freely on your "side swipe wheels". I guess it should be possible to introduce a shaft and spindle on them, to enable them to rotate 360 degrees. Cheers.
Thanks for watching!
Yes you could surely design it with caster wheels that will rotate 360 degrees :)
Great review, excellent tips. That lifting fitting is perfect, why couldn't they do that?? 🙂
@@KJs581 exactly! It should have come like this :)
Do you have the 3d printed files you can share by any chance for the side to side wheels?
Sure! I just uploaded it to Thingiverse and added the link to the description. Good luck building!
@@AlfisGarage thanks I really appreciate it.
Do not tighten the grub screws fully. These are designed to be tightened and the backed off to act as guide in slot on the rod. This allows rod to have some free play and allows the jack to operate faster.
That is interesting - i understand what you mean and you could be right, but then I think the grub screw should have a flat bottom and also there should be some loctite, so that grub screw doesn’t back out
If the grub screw isn't tight it will probably fall out unless you loctitie it in. It doesn't really matter either way. It is a cheap Chinese design with no inner bearing bushes. If the grub screw is tight, it just means the pin is stationary in relation to the two outer holes and rotates in the centre hole. All the wear will be in the centre of the pin or the centre hole. If it is loose, the pin will be allowed to rotate in all three holes, sharing the wear. These are really only designed for domestic use with low cycles compared to a shop lift. You will wear out before the pins or holes will, which is why they don't bother to install grease fittings. As the pins are a sliding fit to the holes, most of the grease was pushed out when you refitted the pins.
@@ricbarker4829 yeah, you’re probably right
loud musig: I adjust the volume, than I can't hear you. I am not interested on the music at all!
Thanks for feedback!
