When I got my "new ride" I wasn't satisfied with the way the hoist line was spooled.I re-spooled as much as I could with a single part of line with-out much success.So today I rigged two parts and spooled all the line out and reset with a rubber mallet,lubricating as I went.My question is what are my chances of re-training the line, or will it revert to its old lay? Any advice would be appreciated.
I also scarred myself, I gave the cable a real good oiling with chain and cable lube,when I finished that I hung my crosby quike reeve block down low enough too freshen up the paint job, a couple hours later when I put it in the shop for the day I saw a puddle of oil on the deck where the controls would have been while I was respooling, my first thought was s#*t whats leaking but as it turned out it was the cable lube dripping off the cable.
Man these machines are like a sickness working on them or with them is just too much fun!
