How long has Ag Krane been around?
We started building Ag Kranes in 1990 under the name Schlabs Manufacturing Co. Schlabs Manufacturing was a family owned business. Established in the 60's, Schlabs Mfg. patented a product called the "Schlabs Plow Packer" used for breaking up clods behind mold board plows. By 1998 the main product for Schlabs Manufacturing Co. was the Ag Krane, so we incorporated the family business and it became Ag Krane, Inc.
Will Ag Kranes twist or sway side to side when carrying a load over rough terrain?
Ag Kranes are engineered and tested to withstand side load equal to the lift capacity. The main pivot point pins are machined with a .010 to .015 tolerance preventing side sway. For instance, the MSL-096HD will withstand 4,000 lb. side load at the fork frame without damage to the Ag Krane. All Ag Kranes have 2" machined carbon steel greasable pins at the main pivot points.
Does Ag Krane. Inc. warranty their products?
We provide a one year warranty on parts and labor. We desire to build the best products at the lowest possible prices. Our policy is to change our products when necessary to meet this goal. We believe the best warranty is the one you don't have to use.
How many hydraulic remotes does an Ag Krane need to operate?
