Discussion:
New electric Jack is really slow

The old Yale mpb040 finally died and the company decided to replace it with a new one, the mpb045v, looking at the spec sheet the speed should be about the same, but our new machine feels like it's running at about half the speed. I've tried all 3 performance modes and don't see much difference. Any ideas why?

If it is new, you need to contact the dealer. It sounds like it was not setup correctly.
