MACHINERY

 

200 Pro Cart TahoeGO-ANYWHERE CART
Omni Cubed Inc., Placerville, Calif., offers the Pro-Cart AT1 for handling any terrain when moving large and cumbersome countertops at the jobsite. Pneumatic casters dampen vibrations and enable travel across unpaved areas such as gravel or lawns. The 8” casters allow for rests on stairs; the high ground-clearance also enables easy navigation of larger curbs. Tops are secured by clamps located on each side of the cutout to reduce breakage in the middle. The wheelbase is wide enough to make the cart very stable; however, it’s also thin enough to fit on truck ramps and maneuver through tight spaces. Constructed from aluminum tubing, it weighs less than 50 lbs; accessories include a folding kit to reduce width to 9” for storage and uprights to enable transport of multiple smaller tops.
