Have to say I'm blown away with this 735. Chucking tonne bags about with ease and lifted pallets of sip off like nothing!
Now I've got the bug...πŸ€¬πŸ˜³πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
Turned what could have been a lot of hand balling into a very relaxing day .
I was saying this morning moved around 40 bulk bags through a 1500mm opening last few weeks along with packs of sandstone, mixing cement for the slabs. The work it saves on the right job is immense

It’s the way forward for sure.
Totally does away with dumper imo. Ten times more versatile plus would load a 8 legger if desperate as well! We loaded a load of sip panels onto my lm146 with big 2.5t forklift then took them back ... seriously had my doubts if Avant would do it. 4m panels dodgy AF. Bossed it even with small forks!
What's the finance rates again πŸ§πŸ«£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I think if you wanted to load and 8 wheeler you would need a toe tip bucket wouldn't you. I seem to remember at full reach you are quite close and have limited but crowd.

Once you have IT you'll be amazed how versatile. A little slower possibly than a dumper but you can stockpile .
I wonder how much an 860i is nowπŸ€”
I bought mine never seeing or trying 1 in the flesh but do not regret that decision

I need some 1m forks for mine.

I've only got 850mm and they don't cut the mustard. I've got some 1100mm forks I had for the skid steer but they don't fit the avant back plate and I don't want to use the skidsteer backplate with an avant adaptor as that's all just unnecessary weight.
