mini skid steers

[jpbeaver]

would you say something like the little kanga was a better buy than a mini track dumper?

 

im thinking for loading rings etc onto 3.5 and 7.5 ton tippers

 

 

Give kanga a ring and they will come and give you a demo on site then you can see what it will lift and how high.

Surely a shorter boom would be better. Then the weight would be closer and the machine could lift more.

I could be wrong but it seems strange.

 

Also, is that the largest lump it will lift?

Looks good.

i reckon it will lift about 300+ kg depends on how fat you are as you counterbalance the weight the short boom won't really make much of a difference as you can tilt the boom backwards to shift the weight its trying to strike a balance between lift capacity and compactness

Do you mind me asking how much the grab was? And how much the grab weighs?

[Breezeblock]

the grab was 480 ish from riko but that was without a rotator i built that as i didn't want a hyd one it weighs 20-25 kg

Looks good.

 

How much use is the grab though compared to pallet forks with a log clamp? Or is that in the pipeline?

 

I appreciate you can drag longer lengths with the grab but that's no use in back gardens where you'd want such a small machine.

the grab is really good and you can use it in back gardens. underneath the main beam there is pegs that stick down so when you are taking out long lengths you crowd the bucket back if you have obstacles to clear . for grabbing big armfuls of stuff the grab faces the right way whereas the forks with a clamp or a muck grape the stuff lies sideways i will try and get a video up on a job with it

That makes sense. Thanks.
