Hi all,
I'm looking at purchasing a large jointer that will weigh in at about 2500 lbs. I should be able to get help loading it as a fork lift will be on hand, but how are machines like this removed from a trailer without damaging them? Are engine hoists generally strong enough for that kind of load? What would you suggest for temporarily moving it around the shop while figuring out where it will stay? This jointer is on legs, not a frame.
Thanks, Dan
