Hey, Spencer Pope here, product manager Taylor Machine Works. We're Break Bulk America's in Houston on the show floor. We've got a X550 RC and I want to talk a little bit about what's special about this truck. This is a ��55,000 capacity forklift. It's got 145 inch wheelbase, but it's an RC model. RC stands for removable counterweight. So this this unit is specifically made for the port industry to be lifted into ships. So let's move to the back. And I'll show you the removable counterweight and I'll tell you why that's important. Give you some specs. Alright, let's talk about the counterweight. So this is a removable counterweight as we just stated. So when we take this counterweight off, it gets the truck to 48,000 lbs. And what that does is gets to the truck chassis under the weight limit of a ship gear crane so it can be lifted into the ship. The counterweight itself weighs 30. So. So if you notice, there's pins right here and right in the back. Take the counter weight off. There's a nice counterweight guide to keep from damaging the unit when the counterweights coming on and off of the truck. But yeah, you just take the counter weight off, lift it into the ship, lift the chassis into the ship, made them back together, worked the ship, take it back out. It's a really specialized unit, does a good job for the board industry. We walk up and show you a couple more features about this truck that's really important. It's got a 10 foot direct lift mask, but it also features free lift. So this truck is made to work in really tight spaces. So the forks will rise 62 inches without the mass staging. That's that's a real important feature for this truck as it works in, in ships. So I'm just a real specialized unit, specialized front end, specialized removable counterweight. Come, let me show you around this truck here at Breakbulk. We're at booth B40 right at the end of the main aisle. Thanks.
