FULDA, Germany
Hubtex GmbH introduced the new 2132 series electric multidirectional sideloader at forestry industry expo Ligna, in Hannover, Germany, this week.

The multidirectional sideloaders, available in capacities from 4.5 tonnes to seven tonnes, are designed specifically for rough outdoor applications.

Elastic tyres work in conjunction with the sideloader's two-part swinging frame to provide stability on uneven ground, a Hubtex statement said.

The 2132 series, which has AC technology replaces the 2005 series.
