Question 1

Is this made in USA? Are all Neiko products made in USA?

Accepted Answer

These days "made in USA" is a big selling point once again in tools, but as always it's still caveat emptor (let the buyer beware).  No matter what their INTENTIONALLY MISLEADING brand name is (Neiko Tools USA) which to be charitible may signify  that the one branch or office of the company that is involved in importing and SELLING the tools is possibly LOCATED in USA, and that SOME of their tools might POSSIBLY be made in USA), if an advertisement for something doesn't specifically say that that particular something is made in the USA, the overwhelming odds are that it is NOT. If you look around on Amazon for descriptions mentioning made in USA (for come-a-longs), you'll notice the huge difference in price between those made here in the good ol US of A and those made in China or other Asian locations.

Question 2

Can you put synthetic cable on this instead of steel cable

Accepted Answer

Not worth your money

Question 3

I can't back this out one tooth at a time as the video shows. any advise? should i return it? seems dangerous

Accepted Answer

My 2 cents...If you have not done so, perhaps set it up hanging with a light to medium  load on it, at least 20#, but even maybe 30 -50lbs (enough so it has good tension), then try it as shown in the video.  If it does not release one tooth at a time, that would cause me to return it.

Question 4

can I extend the cable?

Accepted Answer

The cable is 12' long if used without the pulley, or 6' long if used with the pulley.  You cant extend the existing cable beyond that.  If you tried to replace the existing cable with a longer one, there wouldnt be enough room on the spool for the extra cable.  You can use a chain or sling between the puller and what your pulling to get extra reach.
