Industrial Stick
Sticks. Four different stick lengths are
offered to match different application
requirements:
• Short stick (2.1 m/6 ft 11 in) for
maximum breakout force and lifting
capability.
• Medium stick (2.4 m/7 ft 10 in) for
greater crowd force and lift capacity.
• Long stick (2.6 m/8 ft 6 in) for
greater depth and reach
requirements.
• Industrial stick (3.1 m/10 ft 2 in)
for use with free-swinging grapples
in material handling and industrial
applications.
Design. Booms and sticks are welded,
box section structures with thick,
multi-plate fabrications in high stress
areas, for rugged performance and
long service life.
Flexibility. The choice of two booms
and four sticks provides the right
balance of reach and digging forces
for all applications.
One-Piece Boom. The one-piece boom
fits best for all standard applications
such as truck loading and digging.
A unique straight section in the curve
of the side plate reduces stress flow
and helps increase boom life.
Variable Adjustable (VA) Boom.
The VA boom offers improved right
side visibility and machine roading
balance. When working in tight quarters
or lifting heavy loads, the VA boom
offers the best flexibility.
Offset Boom. The offset boom adds
major advantages as well as a high
level of versatility. The large offset
dimensions (left 2460 mm (8 ft 1 in)
and right 2760 mm (9 ft 1 in)) enable
you to dig along walls, over obstacles,
grade while driving and dig under laid
pipe. This combination coupled with a
tiltable ditch cleaning bucket allows you
to operate a highly versatile machine.
