I bought 2 new 3/4 ton AB Chance chain hoist. In less than a month both were useless. They tighten up fine but will not release. Thought I was overloading, so rebuilt and tried again, same results within another month. My tools are not abused, I have had old ones last for years and still work great. I know of 2 other contractors with this same problem. If you need a chain hoist, do not waist your money on these!
