Features & benefits of the following models: 130B AND 160A KNUCKLEBOOM LOADERS
Weld blending and engineered sweeping curves provides added strength to high-stress areas, prolonging product life and reducing down-time. Barko products outlast the competitors and have a much higher resale value.
Bolt-on cylinder glands provide easy serviceability on-site, reducing downtime, while piston wear rings extend product life. All cylinders are made of heavy wall steel tubing; and heavy chrome plated cylinder rods are induction heat-treated for added strength.
Designed to be durable and comfortable, the fold-up molded seat is waterproof, adjustable, has a locking pin and is equipped with articulating arm rests. Seatbelt provides operator safety. Armrests pivots up and out of the way to allow easy and safe entry and exit.
Rotary manifolds allows for 360º degree continuous boom rotation, while providing electrical and hydraulic power to the unit.
Dual motors and planetary gearboxes provide smoother operation, more power and greater swing torque for the operator, while providing improved machine balance.
Boom is designed for durability and the toughest applications. Specially engineered boom curves provide added strength and reduced weight, making them more efficient and delivering higher payloads.
Dual-joystick controls provide greater accuracy and higher productivity.
Controls are enclosed in rubber for environmental protection.
Non-slip foot controls provide safe and accurate boom rotation.
Heavy duty steel guarding provides protection to operator.
Heavy duty boom lock protects boom from swinging while not in operation and while driving vehicle.
Deck platform is designed for safety. No trip-points or height differences make this a flat, walking platform with a slip-resistant surface. Designed for water drainage.
Platform is designed with built-in handles for added safety while climbing up and down from the platform.
Extra-wide steps provide easy operator access and slip-resistant surface adds additional safety.
Extra large zinc plated pins and bolts used in high-stress areas to provide added strength and prolong product life.
Zinc plated tubing provides extended product life. The strongest and highest quality hoses are used and are carefully designed to be routed and protected to provide less wear, extended life and reduced maintenance costs.
Fold-away stabilizer cylinders are surrounded by heavy steel to provide protection from damage, reducing repair costs and down-time.
