Brake Bands
Brake band parted above connecting links when attempting to slack off weight.
Inspect brake bands every 6 months. Do not repair damaged bands but replace them with new ones instead. Take the connecting link pins out once per month and clean and re-grease so there is free movement of the band
Bands failed due to excessive flex and prior damage. The bands were welded instead of being replaced.
