Front-End Loader For ATV's
 ✖  |
We recently bought the manufacturing rights to a front-end loader for ATV's originally marketed by Smucker Mfg. of Harrisburg, Oregon (Vol. 25, No. 2). The "Groundhog" loader comes with a 44-in. wide bucket as well as pallet forks and a blade. The loader is operated by an electro-hydraulic power unit that mounts on the front rack and is wired to the ATV's battery. The loader arms are secured by two pins to a permanently-mounted steel plate that bolts underneath the machine. The arms are raised or lowered by a pair of cylinders. A third cylinder is used to tilt the bucket.
Controls for the loader are positioned on the handlebars. Once mounted, the loader can be removed in only about five minutes. The loader weighs 120 lbs. without the bucket. It has a lift capacity of 300 lbs. and a lift height of 48 inches. Sells for $3,595 including the bucket. The blade and pallet forks sell for $495 apiece. (Wild Hare Manufacturing, Inc. 330 6th St. Hawley, MN 56549 ph# (218) 483-1000; info@wildharemfg.com; www.wildharemfg.com).
