97 Pounds per unit all in. Yikes! And the majority of remote, or ground setups, calls for a pair of Chorehorses, plus two pairs of wireless batteries.

A 19-set ready to go on its Carriers No. 23 can just be carried by one man. Impossible task for a 52-Set. That beastie requires two men minimum carrying the set lengthwise between them. With two men in line, the set gets in the way of efficient movement. With four men, two at each end, in line movement is a piece of cake.

Colin. do your manuals show the canvas cover as always being part of the standard kit for the Chorehorse, or did it start showing up at some point following introduction? The 52-Set Manual recommends the operators use the issued cover at night to avoid condensation buildup on the Chorehorse. Keeping the magnetos dry perhaps.
