Ken B 3,141 #2 Posted December 15, 2009 Once upon a time I had a Wheel Horse with electric lift and for snow blading I hated it. It was very slow. I removed it and installed manual lift. For occasional use its okay but with the constant up and down required with snow clearing it wasn't for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dale 0 #3 Posted December 15, 2009 looking to use it to lift a clevis hitch. i was going to install a bigger battery tray so i could use a bigger battery. my biggest consern is will it hold up to alot of use?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
defed 0 #4 Posted December 15, 2009 i have one, but haven't actually used it for any real purpose. it is powerful, lifts the tractor up with a blade. i don't recall how fast it operates, but i'm sure not as fast as manual or hydraulic. i would say it should hold up under alot of use. it's just an electric actuator...same things have been used on c-band dishes for decades.

jtmoyer 1 #5 Posted December 15, 2009 i have one and love it. yes, it is slower then the manual lift but im kinda a wuss. that tiller gets heavy. i think it moves the tiller as fast as my hydro, plus with the electric there is no drift down, put it up and it will stay up. bight be a little far to come try it out though :notworthy: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
