    Ah, that would explain the reviewer who said their ram ripped through the wedge holes when it hung up on extraction. I didn't see where that would occur - I might stop again tomorrow to look for that.

    Lowes stood behind that reviewer with a replacement, but in any case if it doesn't extract, the lesson is don't use the force of the hydraulics to pull it free.
