It's funny you mention that. He claimed it weighs 10K lbs. I found that hard to believe, since the manuals from Kearney & Trecker state it is 6700 lbs. with all of the factory attachments.
Most people have no idea. At the same location I mentioned above, another guy bought a shaper that he thought weighed "6,000 or 7,000 lbs.", yet they carried it out first under the forks of that little Towmotor and it was apparent it was at its limit. My guess was about 3,500 lbs. and when I later checked the spec plate on their forklift that seemed to confirm it.
