Is there really such a thing as an unneeded tool?
Seriously, is this the best you can do?
I've been considering getting a vehicle lift. Between the multiple cars we own, the tractor, lawn mower, etc, it seems I'm having to work under my various vehicles a lot lately and a lift would be really nice.
I was checking out and seriously considering the Torin 7000-pound QJY3.0D being	sold	on the Northern Tools site. Pretty decent specs and only $2000.
QJY3.0-D double-cylinder hydraulic jack is a new type of hydraulic drive vehicle elevator equipment developed by our company recently. It is designed briefly and reasonably. It select hydraulic power unit, having merits of low noise, smooth rise-and-fall. The machine has elevator carriage, safety device guard against falling, qualification equipment for ultimate load , lock equipment of revolution angle of lift arm, and the forced same step of the steel wires of elevator carriage.
Oh, yeah, definitely gonna do that, wouldn't be safe otherwise, right?
Ah, so we need to modify the local gravitational field?
While all this is funny, on a serious note: How can Torin expect the customer to properly install and safely operate this machinery when the owner's manual is nearly unreadable jibberish? I won't even consider purchasing this lift when I have no confidence that I can get it installed correctly or run it without killing myself.
