Thanks guys for the info.
wardengine, The past owner who purchased it from Hanover informed me that they told him there was a bearing bad in the turn table. He said he has used the ladder on numerous occasions without any problems. A couple of the things mentioned were hanging lights, cleaning chimneys, and doing the annual beaver drop for Beavertown. When I went to look at it, we set it up and operated the ladder. It didn't have any issues, so I'm gonna guess that it was just an excuse to get a new one. When my department here in Lewistown gets their aerials tested in 2012, if I have the extra cash, I'm going to see if I can get the Seagrave certified. That way at least I have a definete answer. If you can help with any other info, please let me know. Thanks
