A storage caddy for a column having a main body mounted around the column. A tray is pivotally connected to the main body such that the tray can be pivotally moved forward to a position that is accessible to a user operating the machine and then moved back to a storage position. A control rod is pivotally connected between the tray and main body to position the tray so that it is in a fixed lateral orientation preferably in the direction facing the user during the pivotal movement of the tray. The mounting mechanism of the main body includes a strap secured to the main body and wrapped around the column of the machine. The main body further includes an adjusting mechanism for tightening the strap around the column comprising a pin rotatably mounted to the main body and a clip removably connected to the pin. The strap passes through the clip and is retained by the clip to allow it to wind around the pin thereby tightening the strap around the column. The storage caddy further includes a second tray detachably connected to a support arm which is pivotally connected to the main body. The first mentioned tray is also rotatably mounted on the support arm. An extension tray can be detachably connected to either tray for storing additional objects.
