John Deere introduced the MB60 material boom, which the company says is designed to give operators greater control when lifting, moving and placing heavy or irregularly shaped materials in confined jobsite environments.
Built for landscaping, general contracting and nursery operations, Deere says the MB60 helps operators securely rig and precisely place loads when buckets, forks or grapples are not as efficient.
“The MB60 material boom is designed to make difficult lifts feel more manageable,” says Emily Pagura, marketing manager at John Deere. “It offers versatility and helps operators execute precise placement with greater confidence.”
The MB60 features a 6,000-pound rated lifting capacity, delivering strong and reliable performance across a wide range of applications, the company says. Dual hook points provide flexible rigging options, allowing operators to adjust configurations based on the size, shape and balance requirements of each load.
Deere adds that the boom enhances maneuverability and allows for precise material placement in confined and hard-to-reach areas. Operator experience is also a key focus, as the serrated steps provide sure footing during ingress and egress. Lastly, the MB60 is compatible with a range of John Deere machines when equipped with the appropriate coupler interface.
