Material Handler
PBO 5548 IM
Overcenter Insulated Material Handler
Elevator design
Delivers exceptional performance
Provides a smoother ride and improved hose containment, plus it decreases warranty costs. Reach up to 62 ft vertical working height with elevator option.
Additional maintenance access points
Provide access to both upper and lower boom
Maximize performance and uptime with easy access to hoses for inspections and maintenance.
Military grade plastic covers
Withstand tough conditions
Improved protection and rigidity when encountering trees and other overhead obstructions - reducing downtime.
Overstow protection
Protects upper and lower booms
Automatically reduces boom speed into the cradle maximizing equipment life.
Hydraulic tank location
Moved outside of load area for extra storage
Frees up valuable working space and provides more storage for tools and materials.
Reduced corrosion on all pins & bosses
Minimizes maintenance
Utilizing proprietary components on all pivot points, composite bushings, and trademarked coating processes on pins result in increased durability, reduced service time and lower costs.
High pressure oil filtration
Increases reliability
PALFINGER state-of-the-art high pressure filter improves oil cleanliness and reduces valve replacement.
Bucket pin triple-redundant fastening to the boom
Maximizes safety
Increases safety attachment between bucket and boom.
Very low heat generation while idling
Maximizes performance
Advanced hydraulic system reduces horsepower loss and heat generation. Temperature control extends component life.
Bonded boom tip
Safety at the highest level
Fiberglass bonded to steel improves safety during operation.
