Few weeks back, had an apprentice break off a ball end of a hex key in a sheave. After a few hours trying to save it, I came to a career decision, I will always order new pulleys, sheaves etc. I am over fighting trying to save money over time. Thanks for the video buddy.
Man That sounds like a good challenge , this one was a good experience for the apprentice since it was already broken then nothing to lose and everything to gain. Thanks for sharing your experience 👍
I wonder who made that electric motor? Evapco makes some of their motors, most are re-branded motors made by WEG Electric Motors/ Likely any motor rated for IP64, ip65, or higher (second digit) would work fine.
Why the crane and not a ladder hoist wheel? As long as the ladder is rated for the load of the wheel and motor anyway. Just asking is all-that's the way we did them for 30 years before i left the industry. The motor would be rigged to travel alone to the top where a tech could place it, then the second tech (if needed) would traverse the ladder to help install. Hiring a crane or even having one on hand is a huge expense.
You are the last of a dying breed Sir. I wish more techs were like you, very resourceful.
Thankfully we have apprentices willing to learn and reason

Man I've done one of those. A couple straps, come along and a second person. Easy in and out. No crane needed
I could see that happening but Less chance of a man hurt this way and the crane is company owned.
@subcoolHVAC oh yea if it's company owned then not much cost there other operating cost.
Crazy stuff. Dont know where to begin
Thanks for watching 👍

It’s a WEG motor

Our Company owns the crane
