what mini loader

[Mick Dempsey]

Good spot Josh, thanks, the Cast/Pixy company seem to originate in Italy.

 

I'm calling the guy today for a looksee.

Looks good Mick. I like the fact it's of the 'front seated' variety, they are definitely more stable under articulation. Avant do a rear seated model 'R' series, which all lift 170kg LESS under full articulation than their respective double in the normal range, and that's quite a difference IMO.

But rear seated loaders seem so much more natural to steer and have a better/narrower turning circle for access, but I am aware you are on the continent and their gardens seem to be far more practical, so access probably ain't the same problem as here.

[Mick Dempsey]

Very true, access is usually easy.

 

We had a bit of an experiment yesterday used the tractor grab on a measured 350kg (we've only ever guessed at it lifting power) it had no issues at all.

 

I may have underestimated it.

These Pixey loaders, I saw one last year at the Royal Welsh Show been used, I was dropping some machinery off there the week before the show started, It was been used to move some kit around on the Winstay display stand with pallet forks, when you here one running & you watch it work you are left in no doubt why they might be a cheaper machine, it is obious they are trying to copy Multione & Avant, they still have a seriously long way to go, in my opinion, dose any one own one of these machines yet or has any one ever used one on a job ?

The vids do make it seem a bit clunky, three pot Isuzu.

Any one else had a mail shot letter from Beddoes machinery, they are now the newly appointed Multione loader dealer for Shropshire & surrounding areas, looking at the information sent, the Multione machine looks seriously OK,

 

If we had not just bought another loader after selling an old Avant a couple of months ago we may have been tempted, oh well never mind

Just used one of those MultiOne 7.2 loaders over the weekend to build a massive bonfire, The task was to round brash from a 20ft farm hedge once the pleachers had finished laying the hedge. The 7.2 MultiOne with a standard muck grapple handled the job very nicely with plenty of power & reach, the machine was not to heavy on the ground, so no mess. highly recommend you all take a look at this machine, very impressive & not to many fancy switch's nice & basic.

Impressive grab!!! Is it a matter of perspective from the photo or is the grab considerably larger capacity than the carrier machine?

 

I'm out with mine tomorrow but using the silage grab as the logs will be smaller....

[Blake@waveney]

It is a large loader but the angle of the pic does make it look bigger. I thought about a silage grab but on odd shaped logs this wraps around it making a more secure load.
