Easy-Motor-Toter

I found one of these in an old post but the links are broken and I can't find one in the UK.

What I was originally looking for a stand / trolley for my 15HP Suzuki.

The purpose was to make it easier on my back getting it from the Garage round the back and being able to service it. Then the next plan was to use the same Troley to load the car, this one had wheels at both ends which makes it look a lot easier.

Anyone got any experience and know where I can find one.

if not I might just go for one of these as it looks easier to get my Bin under

Easy Motor Toter’s look and work great, and a few on here have them. Major disadvantage for me is the overall size of them...they are huge.

If you want something to store motor on, move it around and slide into car have you considered a cheap 2 in 1 sack truck. The small castors allow easy loading into a vehicle. Just need to add a timber board at suitable height to clamp motor on.

I purchased one of these recently £36

And with odds and ends from the garage and the top cut off made this

Gets over the deep sill on my car, rolls in and out, no heavy lifting.

Thanks both ! Oldman, that looks the ticket for me can you send me any links for the small wheels or even fancy making one and selling to me ? PM if easier.

Make it yourself, its easy. Just 2 bits of decking, teak oiled, a selection of wood screws, some wood dowling and M6 nuts & bolts, the wheels I used were off an old push chair, but these would suit at £2.50 each You can choose to use braked or unbraked!
Hacksaw the frame down to size, mount the timber as shown, insert wood dowling into the tube before drilling fix holes as this will allow good tight bolts without crushing the tube.
The top of the tubes with handles has dowling inserted and drilled to fit leaving room for the powerhead above the wood "transom"
Lastly the castors are fitted, they are single M12 bolt fixing and they need inserting up the tube through the handle, you will need to "grow" the M12 bolt out to 20mm tight fit to hold the castors in the handle tube, Invent something!

I didnt leave big spaces, something weird with the forum.

Coincidentally over the last couple of days, and whilst not really relevant to this thread, I’ve been knocking up a lightweight combi outboard trolley/trailer dolly. Primary use to ease handballing a small sib/motor on launch trolley through the dunes and down the beach. Quick release tow ball for motor stand mode.

Looks good Harrison, what pipe clips have you used & what keeps them in place on the tube?

[harrison]

Plastic 22mm dia. clips, tubes drilled and screwed to timber through clips.

I know a bloke that did a very easy conversion to a golf trolly it folds up very small and is light and works well with up to 15hp weight

I have exactly that model of folding golf trolley sitting in my garage unused and had often wondered about converting it to carry my 15hp outboard. Do you know what he did to convert it?
