Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Got this on demo today for a few days while I make my mind up if I should invest in a new one (or x demo perhaps)... Thought you might like to take a peek at it \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Lift gauge thingy (technical eh ) - Beeps and goes red quite easily when the boom is out - this is a 2.5t lift I believe as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Controls are nice ans simple - Big lever is lift and mast in/out - button operated side shift on it as well... right lever is simply tilt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Front view is amazing - no mast to get in the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Last pic... pedals are nice and big... single lever forward and reverse - handbrake is the big red button on the dash pic.. in at 5am tomorrow to give her a full testing on our market lorry... will let you know my thoughts tomorrow (if I can stay awake after tea ) I am impressed so far... but I will be having a DERV motor I reckon... we don't do much inside the buildings really and Gas is costing me a small fortune Any thoughts lads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 And boy does she tilt as well That would be handy with a bucket on! I think I'd soon tip her over with 48 hardwood sleepers on the forks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 That would be handy with a bucket on! I think I'd soon tip her over with 48 hardwood sleepers on the forks! True Jason... I'm going to invest in a box tipper this year and I don't think she will lift 1t extended with a rotator hanging on the front as well... I do like the way she keeps the tines level when it lifts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Marky them things are amazing, the hieght is good when you think of the width if the wheelbase - it isn't the widest out there don't forget. Where we get loaded up at Hulland in Derbyshire they have got a dozen or more of these loading palletised building broducts (stone etc). There is a tendancey to overheat as they are very compact, all it means is look after it and it will do you very proud. Once you get into the swing of unloading a full artic load from one side you won't want a mast truck on the job again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
