PowerMount enables attachment changes in under 90 seconds
B&B Attachments has developed the PowerMount quick release system, in response to queries from major fleet users in the forklift industry.
The system quickly changes one hydraulic attachment, e.g. a double pallet handler to another, which may be required instantly to move a specialist load. The PowerMount enables attachment changes in 60-90 seconds, without the need for an engineer.
It also allows one forklift truck to use several attachments, therefore has the potential to cut costs and provide better utilisation of the forklift fleet. This allows the workforce to operate with fewer trucks, as witnessed on several sites currently using PowerMount.
Forklift trucks fitted with dedicated attachments can restrict the use of the truck to only a few hours a day, effectively paying for the truck to sit idle for large amount of time.
The quick release coupler system has up to three hydraulic function connections available.
The PowerMount system also enhances on-site safety, as operators are more likely to select the right equipment to perform each task, rather than compromising by trying to use whatever attachment they have fitted at the time. The locking bar safety system with visual alarm makes the Powermount a safe and easy tool for operators to use.
