Casters
« on: April 29, 2019, 06:58:33 PM »
Just took delivery today of my #2, jacked to get going.  Question, all four casters that came with it are locking type.  Is that the norm?  And it takes a tremendous amount of pressure to put into the locked position, is that also the norm?  Thanks.

I'm not home right now, but I think mine came with 2 lockers.
4 doesn't hurt anything.  Yes, they need some pressure from your foot to lock.
Bare feet will likely be an issue.

Thanks for the input.  So much force is required to lock them, I was afraid I would break them.

I only have 2 locking.  You got lucky.  And yes, a little pressure is required.
