5 Crazy new Loaders you need to see!

What happens here

The presenter and his companion mount the MAC SwingSteer loader to demonstrate its operation. The internal controls are shown, including the steering wheel and pedal controls for forward and reverse movement. The presenter discusses the loader's 38 horsepower Kohler engine and its robust build quality. He mentions that the machine is built in North Dakota by experienced engineers from Case IH and Vermeer, suggesting high quality despite the lack of brand recognition. He highlights the loader's ability to maintain excellent side-hill stability, countering common misconceptions about articulated loaders tipping over. The attachment system, which allows standard skid steer attachments to be used, is also noted.

Goal: Operate the MAC SwingSteer and understand its engineering and capabilities.

that okay what about tipping not side to side but front front end and back end TI front end the back end is 2,000 lb but articulation when you're fully articulated it's 1,500 lb perfect yeah, 1500 so um after this warmed up carry will you give us a demo of it just so that these guys can kind of see it's very unique I'll get to warm up a little bit yeah it's a little cold it runs up a 38 horsepower colar engine the guys that make the sinks colar they make the sinks and faucets oh yeah yep those col yep yep how do you go from sinks and faets to engines or vice versa engines to sinks and doing what you know put put your Faucets in but I actually have uh my multiforce has a colar engine in it and that's thing start up at any temperature right yeah I've never had an issue with that I'm like I got to give them a little bit more respect CU I always threw them on yeah one thing about these guys too is we could prob show you on one that doesn't have an attachment so they make their own plate for mounting their own attachments but you put two slides on the top of the of their attachment and it turns it in so you can use regular like skid steer attachments oh good yeah cuz I was going to say if they make their own proprietary attachments and it's not Universal get rid of it yeah their idea was they don't want anybody and if you guys are wondering why I have a camera in front of my face it's because I started to shoot some of these videos live raw unedited and taking you guys along for the ride letting you see absolutely everything I see but that also requires me to have a camera stuck in my face so uh if you guys want the long versions just look for my live versions I'm going to start to do these more often for you guys so that you can just get it straight the way I got it it's like drinking raw milk instead of having it Ultra pasturized and Ultra filtered you can go to my channel and also get the raw version so this runs off from a colar gas powered engine it's not diesel powered and the company making these has actually been in the heavy equipment industry for many decades so this is the the founders of this company are not new to heavy equipment operation design building or manufacturing but this design is absolutely new and unlike anything that I personally have ever witnessed before so it's definitely worth giving them a test run and finding out if this could be right for you before you go and pull the trigger on something like this but I also feel that it's…
