MAXTRAX to recovery forklifts and skid steer loaders

[weeds]

we are going to try MAXTRAX's out to recover our forklifts and skid steer loaders at work...........

it's always been a worry letting our guys loose with chains to recover our mobile equipment.........hoping the MAXTRAX will reduce the risk ratings, cannot hurt giving it a go prior to dragging the 'identified chain' out or de-commissioning a perfectly good lifting chain

forks will be difficult as they are low to the ground but thats what shovels are for and its only sand......skid steer should be a little easier

just have to wait till the next event to try them out

You really should be registered as a "vendor" for MAXTRAX. :p

Seen Case skidsteers get really stuck cleaning out feedlot pens. With the right moisture content, a pen full of deep cow s#%@ is about as sticky as it gets.

Ditto Bobcats doing cleanouts on chook sheds. We had one customer that went to tracks that slipped over the tyres for chook sheds, tho this was before tracked skidsteer loaders were commonly available.

Used to work on a ex army 20T Cat forklift that must have spent a hell of a lot of its former life on a beach going by the rust.
