1. Hire A Crane lol

2. Strip the machine into several parts and carry up the stairs

3. Saw It In Half and hope for the best glueing it all back together

One at top, one at bottom. Walk it up (only 60kgs each, not really that much).

As spa says, 2 people either end and take it one step at a time. depending on how many stairs 10 minute job. be prepared to lose a little skin of the knuckles though.

When I've done them with mates it always used to be one person top, one bottom, however the last few I have simply used one of those metal two wheel suitcase type carrier affairs - stick the fruity on there to the stairs and with somebody at the front to help lift the wheels up and keep it balanced and me pulling up the stairs it's been pretty easy.

Lol, I bet :)

Some machines are horrible to move. My Wild Cash was. Has handles on the back but about 800mm down from the top so when the machine is lifted from the bottom the person at the top really struggles (the dome bends your arms). Had to have 3 of us for that one :)
