Problems lifting my PM935

Hi Bill,
I was in agreement with your pick by having the head rotated 180•, table all the way in , knee down and adjusting the ram to best find center of gravity.
The mill belongs to a friend of mine and the stand was for moving the machine into his work space. I too was illustrating a way to pick/rigging the machine for OP.
You and I where on the same page though. :cocksure:
The stand shot was to illustrate how level you can get the machine while picking.
 
Sorry Paco, that didn't come out right. I was just explaining that I didn't intend to go through all the details of a mill lift, and that what I posted was just an example of a different way of lifting the mill. And here I thought I came up with something new... LOL.

We're good dude. My apologies for my lousy wording. :D
 
Turn the ram around to get things to balance. Jeez, I feel like such an idiot!

I did get it approximately where it'll live.

Now that I can operate the controls I can see that I'll need to raise it up several inches to make it comfortable for me to operate.

Don't have power to it yet, but have done all the lubricating stuff and just moving the table and operating the controls is getting me even more excited.

Thanks for all your help

L.
