Removal of freestanding double ovens

[reaper]

Got to pull one of these out- a Delonghi to fit a new element – its got nuts on the back rather than screws from the front(grrr).The oven rests on 4 flimsy looking legs and the manual says not to drag it – so Ive got to raise it somehow and pull it forward.Any Ideas please?

Sack truck, 4″x2″ (or 2″x1″) block underneath, tilt forward, drag clear. 😉

just drag it while lifting slightly, as long as the floor goes right under it will be fine.

Not good for the back but no choice,a couple of small squares of carpet with pile downwards under the front feet will assisit,or a smear of washing up liquid on the floor where the feet will slide.

Block and tackle screwed to the ceiling. Careful not to let the cooker swing back and damage the units though, and don’t forget to charge for the polyfilla afterwards!!! 😉

Can of silicone spray lubricant, great stuff just tell customers the floor will be very slippery for a while even after you wipe it off the floor 🙂

OK, but can you make me one that will roll up into an old baccy tin so it’s not so difficult to lug around? 😆
