Moving a Duramax

Recommended Posts

So I have a few hours notice on the plan to move one of our shop floor Duramax machines.
we plan to move it on the stand with a pallet jack.
Has anyone done this or had it done?
Any suggestions? It will be re-leveled after but anything I should worry about?

On the base, it's probably pretty top-heavy, so I would be very wary of the whole thing tipping over if someone jerks the pallet jack the wrong way.

Previously they ordered the bracing from Zeiss to prevent damage to the CMM. See attached. I was not here when this was moved.

Looking at our Duramax I think it is just sitting on top of the base. If I were involved, I would take off the brackets by the back two pads and pick the Duramax off of the base. Then use another lift move the base, then place the Duramax back on the base.
