Product Snapshot: Skid-Steer Loader and Crane Outrigger Pads
DICA is now offering a pad rack for its line of crane outrigger pads. The rack has a carrying capacity of 1,000 lb and is adjustable to fit pads up to 48 in. by 60 in. The steel rack can be fitted to either the front or rear of a rough-terrain crane, and at only 60 lb, it does not affect the crane's load charts. The rack eliminates the problem of finding where to stow outrigger pads on rough-terrain cranes and reduces the chance of injury when loading or unloading the pads.

The ArcMaster 401MST (MIG-Stick-Lift TIG) and ArcMaster 401S (Stick-Lift TIG) welding power sources offer 10-amp to 400-amp output. Each has a rugged case that can protect the power source from up to a 3-ft drop. Automatic primary voltage selection allows the unit to run on single- or three-phase power and can maintain performance when running on generator power.

The S450 runs on a 49-hp engine that meets Tier 4 emissions standards. The engine uses ultra-low-particulate combustion technology to meet Tier 4 standards and does not require a diesel-particulate filter. The S450 replaces the K-Series S130 skid-steer loader and boasts a 20% increase in auxiliary hydraulic pressure over the earlier model. An optional expanded instrumentation panel shows information on the loader's performance and fuel consumption.
