To make things safer on the roped hydro wheel chair lifts and LULA/Home lifts, we use the extra high bottle jacks that are used on engine hoists/cherry pickers. That way your not trying to balance a piece of timber. We then cut a piece of small channel iron to span the bottom of the platform with a nipple welded on it to fit over the top of the bottle jack's piston to keep it from falling off. You then just jack up the bottle jack 5-10" manually lower the car on top the channel and open the valve up on the bottle jack so you can control the rate at which it drops. This also prevents you from sending a timber through the customers dry wall lol. You can buy the extra tall bottle jacks from grainger and fully collapsed there about 2 feet tall, perfect for doing these tests. https://www.grainger.com/category/hydrau.../ecatalog/N-cuo
