I am selling my Hazer-4 antenna lift for use on Rohn-25 tower.
info:

Martin Hazer Systems - Antenna Parts Outlet

This now NLA from Glenn Martin so may become somewhat rare to find.
Here is itemized list and costs when I bought it new:

Hazer-4 ... $600.00
Pulley (for tower top) ...$85*
Winch ... $110.00
Bearing ... $105.00
Rollers (6) ... $120 (est)

Total ... $1020

Hazer-4 is rated for 200-lb. dead weight and 16-sq foot wind area at 87 mph.

I'm selling the package without pulley* for $350 (plus shipping)
* its still at 50-foot on my tower which is 
leaning ten degrees out of plumb (not 
climbable).  You can get one for about $25 at a hardware store.

Also the rotor plate was modified for a 
Alpha-Spid RAK rotor so one might want to replace 
it (cost $40).  Also easy enough to make from 1/4-inch aluminum plate.

1/8-inch wire rope NOT included.  I ran about 
100-foot on my 50-foot tower.  Can be gotten from 
the above link but likely cheaper from local hardware.

My winch cable failed in high winds allowing the 
Hazer to free-fall to ground level.  I had guy 
wires tied to the Hazer which high wind stressed 
winch cable beyond breaking.  My upper guys tied 
to the tower were slack which is condition needed 
for rotating my eme array without 
interference.  With upper guys tensioned tower 
would not have bent or Hazer cable snapped.

Hazer weighs 49-lbs. without weight of 
accessories.  Probably ship in two boxes;  one 
long box to ship Hazer and other flat-rate box 
for misc hdwr, winch, rollers, bearing and rotator shelves.

more pictures of the Hazer on ground after removal from tower will be taken.
