The only thing I ever worried about while using my lift is, having it jacked up with the safety latch set and the hydraulic jack start leaking. Preventing it from being lifted up to release the latch stops and then to the ground. What would you do then?

 

Yup, ALWAYS use the lock. I'm always fearful of exactly what happened to you and yours. Glad it wasn't worse.

 

What all these guys said. \/

 

that sucks

 

Ouch! Glad is wasn't too bad, but it still sucks. Lesson learned....

 

Most of us have had things go sideways as we are trying to do something and end up taking shortcuts or taking our eyes off the ball for just enough time for it to take that bounce that puts it out of reach. We live and we learn by what we do and the mistakes we make. Thankfully the damage was not significant and that you can repair it.

 

Hello Men, I don't have time to tell you all the things that has happen to me lately and not to mention what has happened over the years.

Remember, we live in a non perfect world and chit is going to happen.

If that is the only thing that happens to you and your bike, you are in good shape.

Sorry that it happened!!

Have a great day and Merry Christmas!

You would have to replace the bottle jack. The weight is sitting on the safety lock so remove the bottle and replace
