The introduction of automatic quick couplers has simplified the disconnection of tiltroatators when a job requires extra boom power.
On these occasions, ground conditions may not be suitable to park the tiltrotator. So, it may require transportation away from the work area.
Engcon is now launching a new stand to transport and store the tiltrotator. Thus, hoping to solve many transportation and storage challenges.
”Since we introduced our automatic quick coupler system with EC-Oil at no extra cost on our machine couplers and the top of our tiltrotators, we have seen a significant increase in drivers that connect and disconnect their tiltrotator depending on the type of work they perform”, says Martin Engström, product manager at Engcon.
Simplicity is the key
The tiltrotator stand is made of steel and has the ability to equip any attachment.
The design of the stand intends it to be carried with pallet fork. So, this makes it easy for a wheel loader, skid-steer loader or truck to carry the tiltrotator.
”The simplicity of being able to connect and disconnect the tiltrotator without having to leave the cab enables the driver to optimize the machine based on the jobs they perform in a simple and smooth way. In addition, the automatic couplings under the tiltrotator are protected when it is parked in the tiltrotator stand,” says Martin Engström.
The stand has dimensions of 1200 x 800 mm—the same as a Euro pallet and thus fits in pallet stands.
