I have an opportunity to buy a very nice looking delta unisaw dirt cheap but I need to get it down one step and up onto my trailer. 425 pounds. Any advice? Come along? I have a heavy duty hand truck.
Short notice so no help.

Go pick it up for him, @poop.

Too short notice to rent/borrow a pallet jack? Or one of those power-assisted hand trucks? Or to slap together a little dolly with casters?

They don't come apart?

Engine lift may be needed.

That's the ticket right there.

Have used an engine crane to move smallish machine tools and a reasonably large table saw (~500lb) by myself, was definitely the way to go in terms of getting it onto/off of a trailer.

I’ve used an appliance dolly and two guys in the past. I have three of them.

This is the problem. And the drive which will add $200 to the price with my truck. Math looks like I might as well get a cheaper grizzly saw brand new.
