170kg implies 85kg each for two people or 57kg each for three.

I am not sure that the HSE would consider these to be safe lifting
weights


So you are guessing as usual.

Apparently not:

Even 45kg would be a considered a "two man lift" - so 170kg will need
mechanical lifting if it all comes in one lump.

John you Spoilsport. You're just letting facts spoil Dribble's
argument ;-)

On Planet Zog the gravitational constant is flexible depending on the
level of the flood water and the mains gas pressure, so the HSE have
come to a special arrangement to enable 2 man 170kg lifts to be fully
legal.
