Bobcat introduced a new pallet fork frame featuring an integrated walk-through design for easier operator entry and exit to and from the loader cab.

It’s approved for use with all Bobcat skid-steer and compact track loaders, Toolcat utility work machines and the V519 VersaHandler telescopic tool carrier. Loader and Toolcat machine operators can easily connect and disconnect the pallet fork frame with the Bob-Tach attachment mounting system, said Bobcat.

The frame is available in standard duty, heavy duty and severe duty with lifting capacities of 2,500, 4,000 and 5,500 pounds, respectively.

Additional features include a cab door that easily clears the pallet fork frame and an open carriage design for optimal visibility to the pallet fork tines when picking and placing materials.

The frame also comes with a center guard and a reinforced brick guard to protect and secure the load while in use. An optional reinforced brick-guard height extension—which closes off the walk-through portion—is also available for severe-duty pallet fork frames.

Available tine options include 42- and 48-inch lengths for pallet forks and a 40.8-inch length for bale forks.
