Here is my original posts on the subject:
This is a heads up for those who are interested in a hydraulic table cart.
Cummins Tools, the traveling tool sellers, have a 660 lbs cart for $99.99.
This past Sunday they had a one day sale at our Civic Center. I purchased one.
The picture in the flyer they mail out prior to the sale looks like the
1100 lb model
that Harbor Freight has but that is not the actual one they have for sale.
Its painted
blue and not orange and it is lowered by a foot control.
Over a year ago I purchased the $99 special from Harbor Freight.
I have been very pleased with it except for a few annoyances. One being
the lowering mechanism. If you don't start with the table at the top it is
very hard
to control the lowering speed to prevent he table from slamming down. I
added some
rubber bumpers to help cushion the landing. The foot control on the new one
works
very smooth from any height. The only draw back is the foot pedal that
raises it sticks
out quite a bit.
Here are the specs:
Harbor Freight
Capacity: 330 lbs
Table: 17 3/4" X 27 1/2"
Lowered height: 8 5/8" (with added rubber bumpers)
Raised height: 26 1/2"
Weight: 89 lbs
Cummins Tools
Capacity: 660 lbs
Table: 19 11/16" X 31 3/4"
Lowered height: 11"
Raised height: 29"
Weight: 123 lbs

Cummins Tools is a traveling tool seller. They go from town to town and hold
one or two day sales. They also have a website but the cart is not listed
there.
www.cumminstools.com
You could email them and ask when they are going to be in your area
or ask if the cart is available directly. Item number 3437
