Re: Using Gear Incorrectly 1 Year, 1 Month ago  
I finally saw the photo that someone posted on the Treebuzz and I agree with them that the gear (pulley) was not rated for the load that it was carrying. Also the _meta_l-_link_ was not closed properly. I think they called that one "operator error". Luckly nobody was injured. Select the proper gear next time. This is probably better posted in the "Professional Workers Area".
