Harrington LX Lever Hoist, Hook Mount, 1/2 Ton Capacity, 10' Lift, 9.7" Headroom, 7.1" Lever Length, 0.9" Hook Opening

This little hoist is super handy. I needed to support an overhead electric motor for repairs to the pump it was driving, and it did the job with ease. The weight of the combined assembly was about a third of the overall capacity of the hoist, and even with the stubby handle, it was an effortless lift. Nice quality and smooth operation.

this is a great product for the home hobby guy not heavy construction. I use it on my 54 chey truck to lift body parts and other items related to home use. light weight and easy to handle. just love it as it is my helper when working on something and I no longer have to prop stuff up which makes my wife happy for me to work safely as she says she has a lot invested in me.

This is pretty much what I needed. The quality seems to be there as far as I can tell. Its much smaller than I thought it would be. Which is a good thing as long as it has the 500# of pull. It also comes with an individual serial numbered load rating certification. I guess in case you need it for industrial use. I may buy a few more since its so compact. Pretty much the size of my fist if you don't include the chain.

Will it lift its rated load, of course! I guess I am just an over kill type of person, so it just seems so dainty. It does come with a load test certificate and is from Harrington. I don't think I could use a no name hoist this small! There are many benefits though. It will fit in a small leather pouch, so it is compact and protected. I t will fit and operate where many full sized ones will not. Very useful for sucking a joint in or giving a slight lift. One negative is that it is incredibly hard to get it into free spool down. I think it is just tight and will loosen up, but for now makes me cuss.

Excellent product. Packaging leaves a lot to be desired.

Good

It’s certified, make by a reputable company and works fantastic for everything I’ve used it for! As a equipment mechanic ive used it to pull and bend guardrails on machines back to position, hold things in place to weld, pulling and lifting things like engine components. No complaints on it with anything so far.

Harrington is a great product. But I paid for the 10 foot chain and they gave me 5 foot.
