More info here:

 

EL-500 Gruetta Idraulica

 

Been looking for something to help load trailer / move things around the yard.

 

Anyone used one?

[shavey]

it looks a nice addition for yard work any idea what lifting capacity it has

[Ty Unnos]

500kg lift - the arm is 220cm long and lifts to 240cm plus the tractor linkage lift.

Looks limited in its use. FEL would do it better.

I have seen a similar thing for lifting bags of fertiliser into the hopper on a 3pl

 

 

Bit beefier than that but just as limited

Have sold a couple. They do what they say on the tin really!

They are a little limited, but they are better than having nothing for lifting! One of those things that once you have one you find 100 uses.

 

PS, dont know if you go my email, your winch arrives monday.

Cheers all.

 

I hear what you are saying about limitations but currently have no lift capacity on my tractor.

 

Also I think options for a loader on my alpine tractor will be pricey and not offer a very big lift?

 

So for not much expense they look handy to me.

 

Found as couple of clips with them in use:
