Hugely limited. This would be more useful if this cculd elevate the bucket to dump up nd over the sides of a simple utility towed trailer. For want of a scissor mechanism...
Yeah, it’s not a lot of water but compared to most fire apparatus it is. That is as much if not more than a type 7 engine and just a little bit less than a type 6 which most common engines on brushfires
@@fmiequipment I hear that some of those ASV Models are the only skid steers that were made specifically for treads, and they added tank style treads so that it has the lowest ground PSI, (great floatation on marginal soils) and it can navigate hills and valleys much better than the rest of the skid steers, so that would make sense to adapt the box to the most capable of the skid skid steers in that segment. I've been looking at a JCB tele-skid for side entry, but the ASV has now become a strong contender for my next purchase.
@@fmiequipment I saw they had a 2 year - 2000 hour warranty on the tracks not coming off out in the boonies. That's impressive, no one else does it. They have like a 3 lug inner track, middle, sides so that it's darn near impossible to de-track them. Very impressive machine. I'm still partial to the JCB Teleskid / side entry/ extended reach, but the ASV Sure would be my choice for rugged steep terrain.
Thank you for showing this :) appreciate it much Edit* after trying this myself it might have been nice to know what to do in the event your pulleys don't line up. And also what to do after tightening. Kinda skipped through some crucial info at the end there
Without attachments the machine is about 10 feet in length, so a standard 20-foot equipment trailer would allow the machine and a few quick-swap attachments.
Thanks for posting this. Saved. Would appreciate it if you would make one with a detailed set up (once at set up site) and pre start and deploying and putting away for the unit. I am waiting for a 92HD Arbor Pro to come and want to be completely ready.
This is a cool machine for sure and Toro is sound investment...but I bet for around the same price you could buy a 4wd compact around 25 or 30 horse range
Portland, Monroe, and Tacoma locations all have show rooms filled with high quality climbing gear and equipment parts! Salesman travel a lot with deliveries and demos, but there is a dedicated salesman you can talk with that covers the Tacoma, WA area!
Just Received my Talon climbers. What's with the 3 small holes on the bottom of the shanks? Please tell me that's for "rubber soles or stips of rubber". For traction while pushing further out on those limb walk's?🙏😁
Do you see a big advantage of the 860i vs the 755? Side-hill stability, and off road ability? I am looking at one or the other for tree and brush moving to the chipper. Thanks
I'm looking at these machines as well. It seems like if all you need to do is move brush, the 5 or 6 series might even be a good choice. We do tree work and landscaping / landscape maintenance so I would be using the machine to load/unload/move pallets (aside from everything else) which would require more stability and a higher lifting capacity. I think the 760 or 860 is probably best suited for us, but damn these machines are expensive.
@@CNKCLAN2 Yeah, really expensive. I think some is shipping. They are a lot cheaper in Europe. I’ve been looking at the Giant loaders, and the Bobcat’s also. Haven’t pulled the trigger yet.
@@IronHideWildfire yea having to be imported from Finland is where the cost is. Vermeer also has one. I may have to go with a tractor or skid steer for the price. Super hard right now with all of the inflation. I'm trying to get another truck, trailer, chipper, loader, and other stuff. We're expanding but it's so damn expensive
Another thing did they get better quality for the inside pad attachment ? If they didn't update all the flaws then this thing keeps being an expensive pair of spurs with bad durability Mine only lasted 4 months before starting to fall apart
