Dual Load Capacity (optional)
The optional 500-lb. / 770-lb. dual platform capacity lets users carry more of the equipment and supplies they need. In 770-lb. mode, the platform can accommodate an extra 40% of equipment by weight.
All-terrain capacity
Several features let the HT85 churn through the toughest terrain. The oscillating axle delivers superior ground adhesion. A hydraulic differential wheel lock distributes power effectively to the wheels. High ground clearance gets the machine over obstacles. The result is 45% gradeability. The HT85 range was designed to move easily, even on rough terrain or inaccessible areas.
