Shutoff Lever for Chicago Electric / Harbor Freight Hoist

myminifactory

This Chicago Electric Hoist from Harbor Freight is a lifesaver in my workshop. Recently, the automatic shutoff lever gave out, so we just kept using it, carefully stopping it before it wound too far. I've been meaning to design a new one since it broke down, but only now have I gained enough confidence and expertise with FreeCAD to take on this project. I reassembled the old lever to get precise measurements, and guess what? The first print came out flawless!
