Bobcat Redesigned Snowblower Attachment This snowblower attachment features an increased intake height and bigger auger to draw more snow into the blower to clear more snow in less time. •Available with nine different width options and numerous motor packages to ensure an optimal match for loader models and the application •Ultra-durable direct-drive, sprocketstyle chute delivers 270° of rotation for a wide range of accurate snow placement possibility •Rounded intake provides a smoother surface to roll snow into the feed impeller, minimizing clogging •Easily adjustable skid shoes ASV Attachment Line This line of branded attachments includes buckets, pallet forks, grapples and brush mowers, as well as receiver hitch plates, with each attachment type available for every machine in the company's lineup. •Tested for use with ASV machines to allow plug-and-play application •Include standard buckets with bolton cutting edges, tooth buckets, tooth bars, light material buckets and 4-in-1 multipurpose buckets •Pallet forks available in up to a 6,200-lb. capacity •Grapple rakes and grapple buckets available Yanmar Stowable Utility Hook The Stowable Utility Hook option provides a dedicated, engineered lifting point built into the machine linkage, providing a stronger position from which to lift heavy objects. •Multi-directional design allows it to swing in each direction, as well as 360° swivel movement for optimal positioning of lift and load •Stows out of the way with an easy-tooperate lock pin when not in use •Single recessed zerk fitting for ease of maintenance •Can be retrofitted onto Yanmar compact excavator models from the ViO25 up to the SV100 in as little as 20 minutes Braden Synthetic Rope Anchor The Synthetic Rope Anchor (PN 113316) works with ½” (12 mm) and 5/8” (16 mm) synthetic rope to provide maximum pulling power with up to 40% less weight compared to steel cable. The Synthetic Rope Anchor is designed and tested for all TR20 planetary winches (20,000 lbs. rated line pull) with a wedge pocket (-02 and -03 drums), including models designed for the UBX20 Utility Bumper. TR20 winches feature a compact, low profile design that can be high or low mounted for a variety of recovery applications. To use the anchor, an eye must be spliced into the rope and inserted through the smaller opening of the wedge pocket on the drum. Install the anchor in the eye, then pull the rope until the anchor is fully seated in the pocket. The anchor will secure the rope in the drum.

MB Crusher MB-HDS207 and MB-HDS212 Shaft Screeners The MB-HDS207 and MB-HDS212 feature a new design shaped to resemble a digging bucket, which maximizes productivity even on smaller, complex jobsites. The 216-lb. MB-HDS207 is compatible with mini-excavators from 2,866 to 6,173 lbs. For jobs requiring added volume, it is available with a load capacity increase kit that boosts capacity from 1.7 to 2 cu. ft. The 1,058-lb. MB-HDS212 can be used on midiexcavators and backhoe-loaders from 11,023 to 22,046 lbs. and on skid-steer and other loaders from 8,818 to 11,023 lbs. Both units include field-replaceable shafts, a shorter coupler connection for enhanced control and maneuverability and a choice of shaft kits to match material types, size and application. LGMG Launches Electric Telescopic Booms The T65JE, T72JE, T85JE and T92JE electric telescopic boom lifts are powered by lithium-ion batteries with high capacity, low noise, and zero emissions to meet environmental requirements. The lifts have working heights from 71.5 ft. to 97.8 ft. with a working outreach of 54.5 ft., 55.8 ft., 73.2 ft. and 73.8 ft. respectively. The large battery capacity can meet the needs of two to three days of work. The lifts are high-capacity models with a 661 lbs./992 lbs. (unrestricted/restricted) dual capacity design. All are equipped with an 8 ft. basket with triple-entry and can accommodate up to three operators (restricted) with materials. The lifts are four-wheel drive and have four-wheel steering. Three steering modes are available: four-wheel steering, front-wheel steering and crab steering. The chassis has a max 5° degree tilt angle and 45% gradeability.

Grove GHC85 Crawler Crane Featuring a capacity of 85 USt and the longest boom of its class, the Grove GHC85 is positioned in the middle of Grove's range of telecrawlers. The crane is designed for utility applications, general construction work, bridge work, pile driving and as an assist crane for assembling other cranes. Frame-mounted jacks and counterweight lifting cylinders enable the crane to self-assemble, which can be controlled via a wireless remote. It can be transported to the jobsite in just three loads, or four loads when its crawlers are carried separately. Without the need for outriggers, the GHC85 can move from one static pick to the next. Its ability to maintain 100% pick-and-carry capabilities on inclines up to 4° makes it applicable for repetitive utility work, such as setting poles, moving solar panels or setting up larger cranes. The 36-inch triple-bar grouser shoes on the tracks offer stability, in addition to reducing soil compaction, by producing ground bearing pressures as low as 13.2 psi without load, and as high as 24.9 psi with load. The crane’s several track span settings (covering both symmetrical and asymmetrical configurations) are made possible by the hydraulically extendable and retractable cross members that enhance stability even further. A Cummins B6.7L Tier 3 (218 hp/164 kW) or Tier 4F (249 hp/186 kW) engine powers the two-speed hydrostatic drive, giving the GHC85 a maximum speed of 1.43 mph in high range, while creep speeds top out at 0.55 mph in low range. Fascan Almac AlmaCrawlers Fascan International has launched the full line of Almac AlmaCrawlers to the United States market under an exclusive agreement with Almac. The company will begin delivery of AlmaCrawler tracked carriers immediately through its new company, Multiloader USA.

Multiloaders are radio-remote controlled, tracked carriers, able to transport heavy loads and keep them secure and level on uneven or sloped surfaces. Almac carriers employ a patented bi-leveling technology to transport and keep a load safely horizontal even when moving on terrain at an incline of up to 20°. These new machines are designed for a wide range of industries including glass handling, and industrial door and window installation, among others.

MultiloaderUSA will distribute the ML line of AlmaCrawlers: the ML 2.5, ML 3.0, and ML 6.0. This series can handle maximum loads of 5,500-lbs., 6,610-lbs. and 13,000-lbs., respectively.
