I purchaced two of these units two years ago and both have been very problematic. Everything from faulty gauges that have not been replaced to cracks in the lift carraiges and masts on both units. All bearings in one units masts have been replaced twice, sticking hydraulics on both units creating serious saftey issues and poor too no service from both the seller Capital Industrial or from Omega themselves. At this point I wish I had never looked at them as an option but there are so few rough terrains in that capacity available outside of going way overkill to a catapillar or the like.
Has anyone else got any feedback about these machines or the Company representation that may confirm these are problems from the start or did I just get two lemons.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
