Moved a many of machines over the years using a come-a-long. A lever action CM hoist is even better, especially when you get up into the larger one's that have two speed transmission in them.
Back at the family homestead 40 something years ago, we had a small oak tree just outside the back door. We would tie off to that tree with chains and the come-a-long and drag the machines into the garage. Once in the garage, we set the machines on 1/2" pipe and roll them around with a pinch bar to their final position. I was the "grunt" back then doing all of the hard work while dad was hollering at us! Now, my son and son-in-law do the grunt work while I holler at them!
