Thanks guys, great info. We have another forklift to pick up the weight, and I'm pretty sure the bolt or bolts are still there since we lifted under the counterweight and lifted the wheels off the ground. Getting it back on once I move it here might be a trick but I'll manage. You are right, it's a lot of weight and every possible caution will be used, but I believe the equipment I have can handle it.

I'm going to run down there and have another look. The tag on the machine just shows it as being a Type G, FGC25. I'll get the serial number and maybe that will identify it more closely.

Thanks,
Jim
