Pat-just used three 14 foot posts as a tripod then attached a 1/2 Ton "chain
hoist",the type used to lift car engines.Hoisted fruit in the air and backed
my trailor under and lowered the 853 onto the pallet.
I was fortunate to have the assistance of Tim Canniff(Florida AG Champ),but
yes it could be done by one person.Now I don't have to coordinate up to 10
lifters and heavy machinery.I like the independence and recommend the
technique.--------Al Eaton
