Connect from cab
February 1st 2007

B&B Attachments has launched OilQuick Forklift, a quick coupler system for forklift trucks that enables hydraulic attachments to be connected in 15sec.

As the connection is made from the cab, there is no need for the operator to attach the hydraulic hoses by hand. This helps improve safety and increases the use of the forklift truck.

Made by Oilquick AB from Sweden, the system not only connects mechanically, but engages the hydraulic connections at the same time. Comprising a twopiece male/female unit, the system is quickly and easily fitted with one component attached to the forklift and the other to the attachment.

All types of hydraulic attachments can be changed using OilQuick, including fork positions and clamps.

The OQT 850 is suitable for forklift trucks of 3 to 9t capacity. The unit's coupler brackets can be hooked-on or integrated into the mast for optimum visibility and lifting capacity.

Customers can choose between the fully automatic OilQuick system or semiautomatic PowerMount quick release system.
