Re: [QUAD-L] I'm Done!
Congrats Tom, I truly hope the end is what you truly want and that you find a new challenge after your retirement. You have been a credit to your debits, in helping others to achieve their goals.

RE: [QUAD-L] Ramp Problems
no, it’s an in floor ramp. spoke w/ a gentleman yesterday who said the tracks that are accessible through the service panel which is on driver’s side underneath the van probably need to be cleaned and then lubricated with a high pressure silicone lubricant called lithium grease. We’re going to try that today…….praying it fixes it J Nicki From: gah17...@aol.com [mailto:gah17...@aol.com] Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2015 1:23 PM To: zoocr...@windstream.net Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Ramp Problems Hi, I don't think IMS uses hydraulics, I think they are all electric.

Re: [QUAD-L] Ramp Problems
When using a power-washer, cover any electric motors and components in plastic to protect them. Make sure that all rocks, sand, road tars and debris are removed. A dry lube is better than wet lubing that may attract dust and debris.
