Cast Articulating Loader (SOLD)

[OasisTree]

Nearly new Cast Articulating loader, Model 33TLX Carbon Fiber Edition. Have just foamed the tires, and loader has just over 100 hrs. Turf tires, 4x4, 2 speed pump, extendable boom, and no enclosed cab. Took delivery only a couple of months ago. I really like the loader, but it has not worked well in my market due the the many steep slopes that we work on. So going back to a track loader for our work. $42,500

How steep are the slopes? I ask as looking to buy something and can’t decide between sk1550 / 800 and giant 254 telescopic.

I did a demo with a Avant and didn’t like it at all (a lot of people do I did not at all)
I love my sk 1550

Not sure how to tell you how steep the slopes are...It handles moderate slopes fine, and as long as you are on solid ground you have decent traction. We have a lot of rock yards here with 3" rock, and a wheel loader is not suited for that.

We are currently running an SK1050, it is a definitely a step up from the SK800. We have demo'd the SK1550, seems a little too big for what we need.

A clinometer app is useful in treework.

IDK why there isn't a clinometer built into cameras, that would have an option to display on the screen or picture if chosen. Seems useful for capturing more info for work purposes in many fields, and possibly consumer use, too.
Likewise, on Deadliest Catch, they should have a pitch and roll meter on the screen, with wave heights and temp. Capture more of the experience.

We did a lot of work with it after a tornado in a town close to us, it was really wet but we did zero turf damage and no marks on the asphalt. That is the big plus for these machines, but we just dont do enough work like that to justify keeping it.
