PB105 Dismantle for move : Anyone have any experience dismantling one to move ?

Hey Everyone,
Anyone have any experience dismantling their PB 105 to move ? Wondering if I can remove the hopper from the main unit and the main unit from the base ? I have contacted Harman, no info forthcoming.

I have a plan to move it, does anyone know the weight of the main unit that sits on the pedestal ?

I don't have any info other than my experience in getting our boiler into the basement I don't believe we separated the base from the firebox unit. The hopper definitely came off.

Good luck with the move!

Just a note to let you know I built a hoist tower with lumber, and used a chain hoist to lift the main part of the boiler off the pedestal . It was super easy, now I just have to remove a stair landing to hoist it out of the basement. Fingers crossed I have the clearance Clarence...
