    Default triton wheel kit

    Can anyone tell me what weight I could expect to carry using the triton wheel kit?

    I am considering attaching this kit to a planer/thicknesser which is due for delivery shortly. The machinery weighs about 78 kilos, and looking at the print handouts the legs look very similar to a triton leg formation.

    Anybody done any conversions using this wheel carrying setup?

    Not sure what its carrying capacity would be but if you were going to use it in the same manner as the Triton it would only be carrying half the weight of the machine but then you would have to be able to lift half the weight of the machine while you where trying to push the wheels into position while standing on one leg and sometimes that is a challenge with the Triton with the planer attachement attached.

    Yes, you are definately correct with your advice re putting on the triton wheels, it would certainly overbalance if lifted on to one wheel.
