PECVD2 is UP
Initially it was planned to remove the hoist again to rebuild it to solve the leak.
The manufacturer is sending out a rebuild kit under warranty since it is a brand new hoist that is leaking. When that arrives I will schedule another all day event to rebuild the hoist.
I cleaned up the leaked oil, checked oil level, and did an inspection of the tool. System is back up and available for use.
