WHAT IS A MACHINE MOVING SKATE?
In an easy and quick summary, they are used to do all the necessary heavy lifting and are ideal for moving machinery and other heavy loads.
If you are considering moving a storage container, a large machine, an awkward piece of equipment, or furniture for example, then you will need a higher quality version. The higher quality, the more weight it can transport making the maneuvering process easier.
HOW YOU CAN USE ONE
During the positioning process, toe jacks (floor jacks) will be required. Toe jacks are a type of heavy piece of equipment that is designed to lift or lower large heavy objects onto load moving skates. To use this helpful piece of equipment, simply get four low profile toe jacks to lift the equipment or object that you wish to reposition.
By using the toe jacks, the object will be high enough to slide the moving skate under all four corners. Once the object is positioned, correctly then slowly release the toe jacks when you are sure that the machine is in place. The weight of the object should be distributed equally, making it stable. Then attach the steering bars and move the machine to its new desired location.
Due to the weight of the machinery or object being moved, it is vital to choose high-quality machine skates. Often machine moving skates can have polyurethane wheels that have a higher loading bear capacity than rubber wheels. Polyurethane wheels are also oil and solvent resistant.
Additionally, they are tear-resistant, weather-resistant, and resistant to extreme temperatures. On top of all these benefits, they also reduce the risk of damaging your workplace floor. Therefore, researching the right version of this product is imperative and will differ depending on your work environment.
