ANNUAL EQUIPMENT & PRODUCT BUYER’S GUIDE
FORKLIFTS Load Lifter Manufacturing Ltd.
Agri Lifter The Load Lifter Agri Lifter was designed around the needs of today’s turf farmers. The Agri Lifter is a powerful and rugged field forklift that is available in two- and four-wheel drive and with a range of options that suit the turf growing industry. The low ground pressure and optional factory installed floatation tires allow the Agri Lifter to be driven on turf without damage to the sod, further increasing the farm’s profits. The Agri Lifter is available with an optional “Big Roll Carriage” that allows the operator to lift and carry big rolls without having to drop the rolls and then pick up the rolls a second time.
Load Lifter Manufacturing Ltd.
Twin Pak Dual Pallet Handler In today’s turf Industry high volume Harvesters have replaced the manual harvesters so common in the past. To keep up with these new harvesters Load Lifter developed the Twin Pak Dual Pallet Handler for the turf industry. The Twin Pak attachment is available on the 2200 & 2400 series 8,000 lb. capacity forklifts. It is designed to lift and carry two pallets of turf and be able to load trailers as well. The Twin Pak attachment has two hydraulically operated carriages that work independent of each other so the operator can pick up one pallet, elevate it out of the way, and then pick up a second pallet without any delay. An optional load clamp is also available to prevent turf from falling off the pallets during transport from the field to the trailer.
Master Craft Industrial Equipment Inc.
Rough Terrain Lifts Master Craft and Cat-Series 2wd or 4wd Rough Terrain Lifts are now available with the new design. The new narrow counterweight in the back allows for better visibility of the steer tires, better visibility when backing up and an overall more modern look. We use the same components from the 416 CAT Loader backhoe, Tier 3 CAT 96 HP/or Perkins engine, CAT Transmission, CAT drive axle and 4wd CAT steer axle, plus numerous other CAT components, producing lifts with 70 percent CAT content. Adding, the new 5,000- to 8,000-lb. sod lifts use the same components as the Master Craft 12,000-lb. industrial size lift trucks. Also new —previous options now have been added as standard equipment: load backrest, deluxe suspension adjustable seat, heavy-duty B-3 rear steer spindle upgrade, 6-in. mast side shift, and even the brake and gas pedal design have been modified.
Quality Corporation
Donkey with Gasoline Powertrain We know—you’ll never use a gasoline powered forklift. Diesel is the only way to go. But let us explain a little about the new world of diesel engines. To meet the EPA’s Tier 4 emissions standards that officially went into effect in 2013, diesel engines have undergone some drastic changes. Engines over 25 horsepower have been burdened with diesel particulate filters, diesel oxidation catalysts, high pressure fuel systems or some combination of the three to comply with the new regulations. These strategies are costly and problematic, especially on equipment with short duty cycles like truck carried forklifts. We offer two engine options with the Donkey, the 25 horsepower Kubota D1305 diesel or the 50 horsepower Kubota WG1605 gasoline engine. Kubota’s gasoline engine is smooth, quiet, powerful and free of the headaches that come with the Tier 4 diesels.
