[Rhodes22-list] Was Sunday Sail: Now electric motor lift

[R22RumRunner at aol.com]

The bars fit into the tracks. They actually keep the lift in the track and  
the ends of the bars have bearings which rotate. It's all a tight fit and I 
 don't see how it can twist.

Lee,
So the bar is something that is added as part of the lift  install and is 
attached to the slide and runs in the same tracks as the  slide?  I assume 
then that the bar is attached to the slide and when the  bar is lifted, it 
pulls the slide up? If this is indeed the case, is the bar  firmly attached to 
the slide so that it cannot shift from side to side?   Having not seen the 
lift nor having any idea what Stan intended, I'm wondering  if the bar really 
needs to be that long.  If it's only function is to  pull up the slide, 
then why does it have to be long enough to fit in the  tracks?

You added the lift, thoughts?

Rob,

I'll take some pictures next week.  This one  probably won't help much.  I
stole it from the Rhodes22.org  website:

A one inch stainless steel bar goes through the  sliding motor mount.  The
ends of the bar fit into the  tracks.

Lee,
You mention a bar.  While I've  not seen the lift, it was my impression that
the motor mounts on a slide  (vs. a bar) that sits between the tracks?  I
would assume the lift  strap attaches to the slide?  - rob
