[GreenKeys] Model 28 ASR Info

[Bruce Gentry]

I moved the totally empty cabinet with the lid removed up a stairway  by 
padding the steps and using a come-along to pull it,  sliding it up on 
it's side. I had to pause a couple times to get it back on course, but 
it was easy. The empty shell is not terribly heavy, it's size is the 
main issue. Being safe and avoiding injury is paramount,  plan well, 
take your time.   If there are turns or intermediate landings on the 
stairway, that may preclude this method.   The complete dismantling also 
gave an excellent chance to install casters on it and  clean everything.
