I did once have Tundra green Mini van, and several more inspiringly coloured Mini pick-ups over the years.

Anyway,I've found the Land Rover Marine blue and the Massey grey paint now,so I shall make amends.....OZ

Doesn't the load exceed the rating for that jib position by a very significant amount? When I lifted a lathe that was a little over the rated load for that jib position on a two tonne hoist it didn't look happy at all and it kept trying to tip forwards. I am impressed if you managed that with just one helper.

It does by a couple of hundred Kg's , but it lifted it with ease .

If it was trying to tip forward  then the load was incorrectly slung , load centre was past pivot point  (front wheel axles ) .

It just took one person to remove the mill from the van and shift it round  to the rear of my house  , ME  :coffee:
