Pettibone Cary-Lift 204i With Scrap Baler
Published: 27/9
The Pettibone Cary-Lift 204i rough terrain forklift features a unique overhead lift arm design, giving the operator full front visibility when lifting or transporting loads—a sharp contrast to the lift arms on wheel loaders that are located directly in front of the vehicle. The machine can be equipped with a scrap baler attachment for handling debris and materials in demolition and recycling applications. In addition, Cary-Lift forks are capable of tilting down 90 degrees for specialized lifting tasks.
The 204i is powered by a 200-horsepower Cummins QSB6.7 Tier 4 diesel engine with DOC and SCR aftertreatment. The machine provides a maximum load capacity of 20,000 lb (9,000 kg) and max lift height of 16 ft (4.9 m). Offering 4-wheel drive with 2-wheel, 4-wheel and crab hydraulic power steering modes – and with the wheelbase limited to just 12 feet – the 204i can achieve a turning radius of 21-1/2 ft (6.5 m)
Unlike forward-reaching articulated loaders, the Cary-Lift’s heavy-duty, solid steel frame design allows it to take full loads into sharp turns without sacrificing load capacity or stability. Hydraulic frame sway control and side shift capabilities further stabilize loads by leveling the lifting frame when driving on uneven ground. The sway cylinder moves 7 degrees both right and left of center. Dual joysticks provide intuitive controls to efficiently shift gears and control the hydraulics.
