Needing to service the rotator and want to lift the loaded mast up and out
of the rotator bracket. I have used a cheap com-along in the past but I am
now reading that come-alongs are not suitable for lifting and lowering
loads, they are intended for horizontal movements only.
A lever hoist would seem to be the appropriate tool.
So what are the tower experts using for this task? The dead weight would be
approximately 350 lbs plus any resistance/friction.
Any recommendations? Safety outweighs cost.
