I think I Shat myself

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Charley Lillard</div><div class="ubbcode-body">You can't adjust the slack out of the cables because when you lower the platform onto the safety stops you want to let pressure off of the cylinder. When you do that the cables get slack. I have a Backyard Buddy that has lost 2 pulleys but it is mainly the pin galling and grinding itself apart over time. The replacement is better made. If you just check things over periodically the stuff will last along time. Kinda like checking your oil. Just keep a eye on things. </div></div>

I agree with Charlie,
I have had a Gemini lift built in Texas for 10 years and every year before the spring I have a good look-over everything once a year. It is normal to have that loose slack when pressure is off the hydraulic pump and I only had to adjust the top bolts once in 10 years so the last peg would catch smoothly if I topped out the lift.

I bolted down the legs into the concrete which I feel makes the system more smooth and solid.
