The Master Craft Fox is a low-profile, hydrostatic-powered design for use in the chicken growing industry. The hydrostatic drive eliminates the need for changing gears. The forklift can be shifted into the opposite direction of travel at any speed. However, it will not shift until the machine slows to a specified speed. This helps to eliminate excessive wear and tear on the power train. It has a fail-safe parking brake that is automatically engaged when the engine is switched off.

The Fox Poultry forklift has a lift capacity of 3,600 to 15,000 lbs. with a 48″ load center and is available with either a 129″ or 144″ lift height. The mast is a stepped design that allows for up to 6″ of the free lift before the mast rails start to rise. A 43-degree rotator makes quick work of loading the trailer and can be used to maintain a level load when navigating across uneven terrain.

This Fox Poultry forklift is available with a John Deere Tier 4 (74HP or 125HP) diesel engine, Linde hydrostatic drive pump and motor, New Holland D45 drive axle, and a Master Craft heavy-duty box style constructed 2WD steer axle with double steer cylinders.
