Question: has anyone had this problem.  motor stops working at times & gets hot (no heavy loads).  when it cools, it works again for a random period of time.
Document: I felt more comfortable with a longer bolt, because the motor/pulley and mount are quite heavy.Overall I expect this to last for very long time. Highly recommended as a storage solution.
I use the Garage Gator to store and large and (by bike standards, anyway) heavy recumbent tandem bike. It works great so far!Installing it took some time. The directions were scanty and I found it easier to assemble it on the floor in a sort of dry-run so I could figure out on my own what went where. I wouldn't have done it that way - or at not to the extent i did - had the directions been clearer.
At first, I loved this product. Lifting 6 bikes out of the way opens up much needed space in the garage. But it was too good to be true. The problem is that as the motor turns to raise the bar the cable winds against a sidewall of a cylinder, wrapping itself in a single-width column perhaps 5 or 6 times until the cable slides off the built up cable wrap and over toward the middle of the spool.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that this was as easy to install as the instructions said. It is also very heavy duty and works perfectly where I installed it. The only minor flaw I see is the plastic pulley it comes with. This will probably have to be replaced with something a little more heavy duty.
A drop like this has caused bikes to fall off multiple times, even with the safety hook securely fastened. One bike has been damaged but thankfully no one has been hurt. Yet. At least the device has a key that I can remove since this thing is way too dangerous for kids of any age to operate.This is a fundamental design flaw. There needs to be a moving cable guide that goes back and forth as the cable winds such that it gets evenly laid across the spool area.
Measure many times before starting and during installation, mark lots of lines, measure again, as you install each part keep measuring... especially the channel bar as it is easy to install this not straight.4. The last really minor problem I has was that in installed the hook for hanging the control the regular way up. Due to the height of our ceiling this didn't work as the tension on the cable is quite high.
Although I had some problems with the Garage Gator platform (see separate review for that item) this winch system was relatively easy to install (it's a little heavy lifting overhead), and works great. I use it to store an adult recumbent tricycle above my car in the garage. I can raise and lower it in a matter of seconds. The controller has a key lock to prevent accidental use.
Add significant time to the "1 hour" start to finish installation guide. Make sure you notice the bar sticks out far beyone the motor and don't purchase if you need the bar to be perfectly level...all videos show it slightly crooked except those supplied by the manufactorer.
I ordered the unit just before Christmas and thought it wouldn't arrive until the stated 10-15 day period, but I recieved it 3 days later, in time for me to install it during my holiday time off. I have a garage with a high ceiling, about 12ft, so the gator was a good choice for me to get my bikes off of the valuable and limited square footage of my garage floor.I am an engineer and in construction, so I work with a lot of hoist and rigging equipment.
The problem is the manual's illustrations are backwards! They illustrate a motor who's "Channel bar attachment tab" is on the wrong side of the motor. So, if you follow instructions blindly without laying things out...then you might be in for a lot of re-work.In the end, the product does what it says....and does it admirably!
