liambesaw Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 It's a 1/3rd hp, pulley drive, probably handle 50ish lbs. I have an rk2 at 1/4 hp and the most Ive thrown is 30lbs, but it was just as fine as centering 10lbs as far as the wheel goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
