Can it be used to lift a grand piano?

As someone else said, It can definitely handle the weight. But being able to evenly distribute the weight is the problem.

Absolutely. I'm using it with a Yamaha Motif 88 key keyboard that weighs 70lbs, and it's been great. As a bonus, it breaks down fairly small when you need to transport it to a gig.

I would think so. My brother used ours to pull a wide dent out of his Saturn. They're mostly plastic.

I doubt it. These things are designed to lift themselves only, weight is most important. Also they are finely balanced and any additional weight somewhere would mess up the balance.

It will clamp onto the upright part of the music desk on a grand; an upright piano is a different matter.

Absolutely. I have moved empty file cabinets with this. It can lift up to 150 lbs.

I would think so.I've used it to lift up the whole front or back of a Ford Ranger, and Lexus RX300.

Yes it could however the lift hight is limited and the rails that do the lifting are about 12" wide

I have not tried it, but the wheels are big and strong, however, it depends on how much weight you put, that you can pull up.

I am sure that it could, if, it's pulling within the hoist's recommended weight ability. I purchased this Hoist to use for a lift system I built to put things in my attic the most weight I put on the lift is ruffly under 200 LBS not a lot of weight but saves me on trips going up and down the latter. Works great for me, hope this helps.

Yes, it lifts in a similar manner to be used for a laptop level table or a substiture for a TV tray. It's a very nicely made, quality piece of furniture.

This stand extension was used for a drum processor. It was not 26 lbs, but if the heavier piano was on the bottom, then you would probably be OK.

Sure you can use it for that if it is secured properly. Not sure why you would want to do that though. Remember the higher you go, the less weight the jack will hold.

You should be able to do that. However, if you tow something heavy, the bar might get damaged.

You could but I would not. It would certainly be capable to handle the weight but I would use a scissor jack with greater lift height and a more stable base.

my piano is a yamaha conservatory grand. I don't think it will work on an upright because the clamp woudn't open far enough. Before I got this I used a regular task type with a base that was free standing and adjustable. That would work for you. Good luck!
