[Music] all right you guys asked for the swing loader and we're back with the mechalak and i'm back with monty how you doing buddy good you good good to see you again thanks for coming in monty's from trenchers plus these guys are not sponsoring this video in fact i pestered them knocked down the door called mess like i messaged john so many times i finally sat down with him i'm like what does it take and he's like all right we got two machines coming in we set some time aside and we figured it out so thank you what is this thing called this is a metallic as600 and what that stands for the s obviously it's a swing loader so she'll rotate from about we have it shown this way she'll come all the way around and come out you know swing this side as much as she can lift here she can lift it all the way on the side how much can she lift here 4 500 pounds okay so and you don't worry about tipping that over at all oh because i'm new at this but there's a there's a shock it's built in where it adds a force it's like a counterweight on this side to keep it from tipping okay but this is also a little bit different than a standard loader in a number of ways as well because this doesn't articulate it doesn't articulate it's a rigid frame machine and so what that means there's three modes you can have on this particular loader you can have just your front wheels turn you can coordinate the steering so then you have your front and your rear wheels turned together so you can make really tight corners or you can crab steer so let's say you gotta walk sideways into something grab it and you can walk back out how much does this machine weigh almost ten thousand pounds okay so a guy can tow up on a skid loader trailer yes easily and does this have just take special mechalac uh attachments it's like a jrb coupler you know the regular kind of jrb coupler just hooks in pins come out a lot a lot of the other a lot of the other brands manufacturers using the same coupler right okay so this won't take the guy has skid loaders you couldn't you couldn't hop into your skid loader attachments and grab this no but we do have you we can get a bracket a bracket okay make it you know so it'll adapt to a skid steer plate okay that makes sense in my book what power is this thing uh 50 horsepower joints so we're we don't have any of that depth or any of that nightmare stuff everything is easy to get at oil roomy cab very roomy cab okay what are we looking at here well there you go so when…
