wow sounds like a p-o-s.

i have a fleet of FKS's i look after and honestly, i would buy one if i was in the market. they range from 23K - 60K Lb cap all v8 powered but one 6 cyl. turbo diesel. they take a beating, the floors are badly damaged. the same client also has yale/hyster trucks and they require more attention than the hoists but also are used more.

i have had a cross tie weld crack but the trucks are overloaded repeatedly and also used as battering rams at times so a mfg. defect never came to mind.

can i change my statement of hoist the forklift to hoist model fks? lol
