A-Frame Bottom Loader

The "A" Frame Bottom Loader is recommended for servicing both sides of the platform and for adjacent arm crossover. The secondary arm is available as a rigid pipe or hose.  The advantage for this arm model is short range truck bottom loading applications.  Also, if parking is a concern, due to its ROM, it parks at a high angle, allowing arm to store in a high and skinny parking window.  Arms feature the D2000 World Series swivel joints for ultra low maintenance and the easy to adjust spring cylinder balance.

Suggested applications & mediums: Tank Truck Bottom Loading.  Gasoline, Diesel products

The "A" Frame Bottom Loader offers the advantages of easy handling, long reach and quality Emco Wheaton technology.

Standard arms feature the D2000 World Series swivel joints for ultra low maintenance and the easy to adjust spring cylinder balance.
