December 2015 | EquipmentWorld.com 16 marketplace | continued ANGLE BLADE WITH FLOAT MINIMIZES REPETITIVE REPOSITIONING The 5.5-ton Mustang 55OZ, manufactured by Manitou Americas, is equipped with a 47.6-horsepower Yanmar Tier 4 Final turbocharged diesel engine with an electronic throttle. The blade with fl oat can be angled 25 degrees in either direction to eliminate repetitive repositioning during backfi lling. A proportional auxiliary hydraulic rocker switch control allows the operator to adjust the hydraulic fl ow for optimal attachment performance. The operator can easily select standard ISO or an optional backhoe control pattern with a turn of a mechanical lever. A boom offset swing of 68 degrees in both directions allows for digging a square hole without repositioning the machine. An integrated digital display features recordable maintenance history with adjustable time intervals and reminders. The display also show hours used for the past 90 days and can be monitored without starting the engine. ISOLATED OPERATORS PLATFORM REDUCES NOISE Sellick's S150 rough terrain forklift, offering 15,000-pound capac- ity at 24-inch load center, uses a fully isolated operator platform to reduce noise and vibration. The machine's multi-function digital LCD screen gives on-board diagnostics. The machine offers a 74-horsepow- er, four-cylinder engine and a fully automatic power shift four-speed transmission. TORO UNVEILS THREE NEW TRENCHER ATTACHMENTS Three new attachments have been added to Toro's riding trencher lineup, including a direct drive trencher for the RT 600 and a combo mount system and sliding offset feature for the RT600 and RT1200. Toro is also offering two trencher drive style options: the HD PowerTrench, which gives the machine the ability to overcome rocks or other obstacles in a wide range of conditions, and the hydrostatic direct trencher drive for cost-effec- tive performance in less demanding conditions. The combo mount system allows both a trencher and a plow to be mounted on the back of a machine, eliminat- ing the need to change attachments. The sliding offset feature lets attachments slide one way or the other, allowing utility placement without repositioning the machine.
