<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue","serif";color:black">We have a materials lift in the warehouse that has seen better days, but was a bad idea as conceived. There are no travel limits, no apparent brake,
motor or otherwise, no cable retention rollers on the drum, the car is falling apart, the worm drive has probably lost all its oil given the look of things... Due to the lack of cable retention and limits, the car has previously been landed in the basement
taking tension off the cable which is now all up and under itself on the drum... The only saving grace is that there are two full wraps on the drum cable before the stupid gnarly bit.

Lets simply say that there are management issues.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
