Quick release January 1st 2007 B&B Attachments will launch at IMHX 2007 the OilQuick automatic hydraulic hose coupling system. The quick coupler system for forklift trucks enables hydraulic attachments to be connected in just 25sec, with the operator remaining seated on the forklift. The device is said to be cost effective, and to increase the versatility and use of forklift trucks. The truck coupler system not only connects mechanically, but engages the hydraulic connections at the same time. comprising a two-piece male/female unit, it is quickly and easily fitted with one component attached to the forklift and the other to the attachment. As the connection is made from the cab, there is no need for the operator to attach the hydraulic hoses by hand. this improves safety and increases truck use. All types of hydraulic attachments can be changed using OilQuick, including fork positioners and clamps. Stand 18M90 More articles from B & B Attachments: |
