I have avoided moving most presses and radial drills because they're so easy to tip without a crane or very heavy forklift.
Loading is supposed to be no problem, but I don't want to bring in a crane or big forks on my end. I just can't justify the expense for what the machine can earn for me.
So, 25k lbs of 19" x 6' drill on a Landoll and I'd have to tilt the Landoll and drag it off to get it into my shop.
Sounds a bit too puckery for me, but anyone done it?
I'm also hesitant to accept that it can be safely set in the middle of a 102" wide trailer deck with their forklift. They say they can do it, but 25k on the tips of 8' forks better be a monster forklift and I think they only have a 36k.
