The Roadhog Sideloader


The Roadhog Sideloader

The Roadhog container side loader is the most definitive in the side loader industry. Having the greatest lifting capacity in its range, with a reach of 1, 40 metres between the ISO container and the chassis rail of the trailer while lifting the heaviest of containers, even badly situated. The extendable stabilizers give remarkable stability, allowing lifting on soft and uneven ground.

The container side loader can transfer between trailers and double stack any ISO container. The lifting capacity can be limited by the on-board diagnostic and safety system when using the extendable upper arms by decreases laden capacity when the arms are fully extended. The safety system also allows the crane arms to be fully extended before the stabilizers are extended if required.
