Manitou MT 732 Utility Telehandler
The MT 732 has a 7,000-lb. lift capacity, a 22-ft. 8-in. maximum lift height and a 13-ft. 9-in. maximum forward reach. Its 84-hp Perkins Tier II naturally aspirated engine is combined with a torque converter transmission with electro-hydraulic reversing. Load Placing System joystick controls feature dual linked joysticks, providing both lift and place construction controls and agricultural-style loader controls. Directional control of the transmission is integrated into the joystick for single-hand operation of all truck functions.

Caterpillar 990H Loader
The 990H wheel loader replaces the 990G Series II, yet retains features such as an impeller clutch torque converter, Rimpull Control System and STIC control system. The unit efficiently loads 60- to 70-ton-capacity trucks in the standard lift arrangement and 100-ton-capacity trucks in the high-lift arrangement. Rated payload in the standard lift arrangement is 16.5 tons and operating weight is 171,642 lbs. Bucket capacities range from 11.0 to 12.0 cu. yds. Power is supplied by a 627-hp Cat C27 ACERT engine.

Milwaukee Electric SDS Rotary Hammers
Milwaukee Electric Tool offers two rotary hammers for the 1-in. SDS category, each featuring an Anti-Vibration System (AVS) previously available only on larger hammers. Both models provide three modes of operation, a keyless SDS chuck for fast, tool-free bit changes and a variable-speed trigger and reverse switch that allows accurate drill bit starting and easy bit/fastener removal. A V28 cordless 1-in. compact model is available.

Komac KB300V Breaker
The 750-lb.-class model KB300V breaker is suited for large mini-skid steers with 1,000-lb. lift capacities, compact excavators in the 4- to 6-ton class and small backhoe-loaders. The attachment's simple design features only two moving parts. No casting is used during the production process. A good power-to-weight balance allows for more efficient breaking. The quick-change chisel ensures low-cost maintenance.

Allen Super Pro 425 Series
The SP425 Series of mechanical drive riding trowels have a torque converter clutch system that provides ample torque for floating with pans, as well as high speed for finishing. Power or manual steering is available. Two 46-in.-diameter, five-blade, non-overlapping rotors deliver speeds up to 165 rpm. Features include a 34-hp liquid-cooled Vanguard gas or turbo diesel engine, super heavy-duty gearboxes and driveline and electric-powered spray system for retardant application.
