JET 180440 4-Ton Capacity Cable Puller Review

I recently purchased a 4 Ton cable puller having a different brand name, but indistinguishable in appearance, based on the product image on this site. Based on my experience with the product I purchased I recommend a careful evaluation of this product before putting it into service.

The product I purchased, rated at 4 tons, should have been able to safely handle a one ton load. It failed - broke - under a force of roughly 1500 lbs. (Note that this product was NOT the "Jet JCP-4" brand offered here.) The product I purchased was of Chinese manufacture. It was apparent from a cursory visual inspection that it was roughly and imprecisely made. The point of failure was the spool on which the cable winds, as the puller is used. Under the pressure of actual use, the very rough and minimal spot welds binding that spool's ends to its core broke, causing the end of the spool to separate from the core, and the cable to slip and bind in the space between the core and the end piece.

I recommend that this equipment be carefully inspected before being put into use, with special attention to the construction and strength of the cable spool. If the spool shows signs of poor construction, especially inadequate or incomplete welds, the equipment should not be used. The same point would apply to the pully on the cable which has the load hook attached. If that pully is not well made, the product should probably be returned.
