Anyone interested in my 540 articulating loader/forklift?  I have my eye on a different forklift and to get it, this one needs to go.  Just do not have need for nor room for 2 machines.  These are pictures of the machine when I got it.  Since then we have cut off the back end weight and installed a weight bracket that accepts regular IH front end weights.  I have 6 of them on the bracket at this time.  We have also converted the front end to the type that are used on skid loaders and farm equipment.  Just flip the two latches, move to next item, re hook the two latches.  At this time I do not have a bucket for it but the forks are included.  This machine has almost brand new tires, works in 4 wheel drive forward but only 2 wheel drive in reverse.  Starts and runs good.  I'll never get what I have in it but would like to get $3300.00 for it.  Located in Southern Illinois.   Den

It's a nice looking machine and the price is quite reasonable to me.  Wish I needed it.  Why does anyone suppose the reverse only works on one axle but forward is in both?

That is a good looking machine, and I could indeed use it, but it's a little far away. Price seems very reasonable. Darrel
