To streamline your productivity, Trebro introduces the new LoadMac truck-mounted forklift. Like all Trebro equipment, the LoadMac offers durability, superior maneuverability, exceptional visibility and operator comfort. Powered by a 49 horsepower Yanmar diesel engine with all-wheel hydrostatic drive, the Loadmac will quickly expedite the process of unloading and transporting pallets on rough terrain surfaces. The 5,500-pound lifting capacity makes it easy to lift a wide variety of goods including sod, brick, lumber and other building materials. The Loadmac will also fit most types of truck mounting kits. Other features include: • Rubber-mounted ROPS/FOPS cab • Autophoretic PVDC undercoat • Recessed LED 24v road lights • Two-year warranty • One-side, extended-reach offload option (ISR) • Multi-directional steering option (M) mph, the unit gets jobs done quickly! The standard steering wheel and joystick controls direction, speed and lift—making this unit operator friendly. For convenience and safety, the Installer has a dependable, easyto-reach parking brake in addition to its hydrostatic service brakes. Traction controls can even be unlocked for use in extreme conditions. The Installer's compact design makes it simple to transport. The front wheels rotate inward, allowing the installer to fit on a standard-size utility trailer. A time-saving option for the Installer are the hydraulic arm clamps, which means the operator never has to get off the unit to manually change a roll, adding to your already decreased labor costs. Bucyrus Equipment 800-330-0857 www.magnumenp.com Meet Bucyrus's newest line—the Magnum Installer. This turf and operator friendly, four-wheel-drive machine combines efficiency and dependability into a conveniently compact package weighing less than 2,000 pounds. The concept of this Installer grew out of the need for a lighter weight, quick-moving vehicle for the installation of big rolls of sod— one that could handle the terrain but not damage the turf. The four-wheel-drive has an independent rear-steering axle allowing this unit to crawl over and go just about anywhere you want to lay a big roll of sod. Curbs or other obstructions are no problem. A key to this system is its wide, turf-friendly flotation tires that distribute the weight broadly and gently to avoid tread marks in the newly rolled turf. Plenty of horsepower adds to the installer's agility. At speeds of up to 10 24  www.westernturfmag.com
