Hi Martin. Great channel I love your content. I have the Handy SAM 1200 lift and have made several mods. to it over the years. I should make a follow up video on it. Anyhow, I own a small engine shop (detached garage part time) and I was wondering if you could provide videos on pricing jobs, tips for determining what jobs you will take on, a review of that spark tester you use, and a little more information on running your own small engine business. Thanks Bob
That's awesome they really are great lifts! I worked from my attached 2 car garage for almost 10 years and then bought a commercial building to operate from 4 years ago (have a mortgage on it of course) I will keep your recommendations in mind we are only just beginning the UA-cam experience so I may do a couple of those videos! Thanks for watching!!
@@doublewide6 The 8" starting height kind of scares me but I suppose with a 30" ramp this would give it a little better approach...I sure would love the extra 10 inches of height...WOW! I normally use our puller tractor to just drive up on the table with the tractor to be repaired in tow so we do not have to physically do any of it...May have made the wrong purchase especially with all the issues I am already having with this thing straight out of the box!
Nice table. I’ve thought about replacing my 3 modified harbor freight motorcycle tables. I removed the 24” wide tops and built new decks out of 4x8x12 gauge tops and matching ramps. Works great for Atv’s and mowers up to 1000lbs though. What I do like is they have 4 wheels so I can partially strip down units, (put on jack stands on lift) push lift table outside to power wash then pull lift back in. With these monstrosity utvs I now need to invest in a car lift!
Love mine until it started leaking. Less than a year old and used only 2-3 times for oil changes and motor work on the HD SGS. 24 month warranty on parts. I called about leak, they sent new hose. Installed and found cylinder/ram leaking. Aplus sent seal kit which I had to install which is no easy task, still leaked. Called Aplus again and now I am waiting for new cylinder so I can take it all apart yet again. I'm being told mid April, that will make 2 months I have been without a working lift.
Like everything, everywhere that is sold. We lost manufacturing supremacy so long ago I am surprise anyone even remembers we used to make anything. Do you have a better suggestion? Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for your honest review of our MT1500x! We appreciate our customers so much. Please let us know if you need anything down the road.
I will keep you in mind!
I’m sticking with handy because it’s well made and be safe for 20 years off heavily used
They sure work great! I think this lift would have worked well without the obvious defects

They keep getting bigger! We has to stop working on atv and utvs because we don't have the space of help. Thanks for watching!
