Excellent puller that will run all day and pull so hard you have to be careful not to pull your boat underwater. :wink:



The 8hp Honda engine is a few years old...

I pulled the cover off the engine after it sat all winter, set the choke, a bit of throttle, and it started up after 6 pulls on the cord. I took a video to prove it. Starts up faster when warmed up.



The puller works great...

The hydraulic control valve is about 3 years old, as are the nice hydraulic lines with quick disconnects at the pump end. It runs the puller in both directions which is a great safety feature.



The hydraulic pump and adapter has a lovejoy coupling.

The tank has two issues. The filler cap mount has rusted away over the winter...

...it will need to be removed and replaced. The fishing weight and rag was a quick fix to keep snow and water out.



Secondly, this elbow leaks under pressure...

...and will need to be replaced.
