Also, I like the idea of having more contact to the floor than 4 points with casters.

Heavy machines are so much easier to move with a pallet jack then on castors.
Forget the castors, you already own a pallet jack just put a couple 4 by 4's under the stand and you all set.
You might consider using a couple ramps to slide the machine from the pallet up onto the new stand.

I agree with Keith. I got a pallet jack last year and it was liberating. I like machinery a couple inches off the floor anyway, due to my height. Now, everything sits solid on blocks and is much easier to move than using casters.
