The difference between 820kgs and 700 kgs is 14.5 % if the tax man took that off you would be very upset it’s the deference between easily moving a builders bag of ballast and tipping over these figures are ideal tyres on hard surface level fat operator in the seat full tank off fuel etc multione always went on about tipping capacity rather than actual operating capacity this was the reason I bought Avant. 

It's 14.5%. It's not 'a vast amount of capacity'.

 

800kg would still be on it's knees lifting a bag of ballast- just a slight bump could cause it to tip, so I'd always say to anyone looking to lift a certain weight regularly to overspec their choice. Also, demo first. I did, and quickly realised that the 6.3 was a toy compared to the 8.4, and that if I wanted to shift a ton bag around easily then I'd really need to find the extra £8k.

 

MultiOne seem very open with their figures, even quoting capacity with weights for both straight and articulated.

Could you get a picture of what the stops look like please.

Here it is, the first arrow points to the stop itself, the second to the piece that couples with it to, well, stop it.

this is taken from the side of the machine with the grab in (or nearly) in ‘toucan’  position

If you have one of the smaller loaders a pallet will become your most useful  addition. Whilst moving a bag of sand for example lift onto pallet using the bags lifting loops then place pallet underneath carry load on the pallet as your lifting capacity will be greater. Or if the bags are unsuitable buy the bag lifter attachment as this balance the weight better than using the forks on the lifting loops.

Surprised your moving it on Mick, when I see your videos I get extreme kit envy. You’ll have to take on a few more blokes to replace that😳

Don’t worry Dan, I bought the equivalent Avant.

It’s a long story, involving  French customer service, weeks of delays and a breakdown of trust with the supplier.

I still like the MO, but I cannot deal with the French franchise anymore.

what size is that Avant Mick?

So it is home (the rotator) and seems all there.

Just got to get a switch fitted to change the circuit from rotate to open.

Get an expert to do that.

Happy enough.

I have the same rotator as this, game changer great attachment.  Just check the hydraulics for tight fitting from time to time.

 

I want to get the fixed Klou grab next hopefully soon .
