what mini loader

[IRE David H]

Nice job on the bucket using a steel 40 gallon drum,,

 

not mine found it on internet, its meant to emphasis that while going for a mini loader to not go to small as the payload would be useless, there are other handmade ones which could be ideal for smaller operators.

Its the GT45 which is equivelent to the new 9 series CSF

 

If you put your Multione along side an Avant 745 or 750 what would happen, is any one better or worse than the other ?

Hi,

 

It is nice to see some positive and very relevant comments regarding pivot steer loaders.

 

I may be a little bit biased, but you are correct MultiOne and Avant are extremely similar machines. As already mentioned the biggest difference is the boom. MultiOne have a Twin Laced 'H' section boom, which provides a huge amount of strength and stability when lifting heavy loads as the stresses are distributed through the chassis evenly. Think of picking a broom up with one arm (OffSet) and then with two arms.

 

MultiOne have done a lot of RD in the recent years and have launched machines which have lift capacities upto 2.7ton and can still be towed on a trailer.

 

The equivalent machine to Deans is now the 9.5, this machine has a 50HP engine and a lift capacity of 2.6ton and the same physical size as the Avant 745-750. All new machines come with a 2 year (2000Hr) warranty which can be increased to a 5 years (5000hr).

 

If you would like to give me a call on my mobile:07794240941 or in the office on 01246 540972. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have and get a MultiOne out to you to try.

 

thanks,

 

Jordan Botchett

 

PS: Dean and Kevin, give me a call and i can get the process started to road register both of your machines. its not too difficult just plenty of paperwork. It may take a few weeks to come through, you know what the DVLA are like.

Avant and multione are very very close in most ways, I don't like the boom on the avant, it just doesn't right having an off set boom which imparts a twisting force on it.

Al......the stump was dragged out then a strop put round and just about lifted

Skid steers and loaders, both have there strengths and weaknesses. I cant speak for other skidsteers. But the Vermeer is all steel. Quite narrow, plenty of power, and lots of grip.

Demos are easy to sort out, and you will find our back up dam good as well.

Hi All,

 

Wow, what a fantastic thread and full of information from all viewpoints. The one thing that stands out to me is, your choice of machine (type and brand) should be guided by:-

 

1. YOUR needs, not somebody else's.

2. Exercising due diligence and looking into all options.

3. Engaging with dealers/suppliers to decide WHO you want to deal with (and trust).

4. Ask for a demonstration, and don't buy the first one you try.

5. Project your future needs, not just satisfy your current ones. We encourage everyone to think forward and buy accordingly. Value For Money is calculated over the whole period of ownership. If your choice today is insufficient for tomorrow, then you won't gain the maximum value from your investment.

6. Once you've decided, ask for reference from current brand owners.

 

If we can be of assistance, then please call Jordan on 0870 225 5554. We have a growing dealer network (someone mentioned Shropshire, and we expect to introduce a new dealer there imminently) for you to engage with your local supplier, but please start with an exploratory chat with Jordan (he's an engineer and knows the machines inside out).

 

All the best,

tsk tsk,

Same silly argument as when BMW first asysmetrically mounted the rear wheel on a stub axle.

Aaaragh, itll never work!

IF it is correctly designed, and used within some reasonable limits, no worries.

P.S.

Any cheap 2nd hand Multiones going?

Couple of pics of the loader tractor, just because.

 

Even with a roof on the tranny a decent driver can load it with wood, pushing it forward each time.
