    adding casters to a surface cleaner

    Hi, I have a 20" landa water jet... http://www.pressureparts.com/Pressure-Part-WATERJET.aspx I love it except for one thing, it doesn't have the 4 caster wheels type of thing. To improve its maneuverability, could I take off the large wheels in the back and add rotating ones? Anybody have...
