The NF44 Nursery Fork works with select John Deere E and D Series skid steers, CTLs, and most competitive models.
It gives operators the ability to transport and position up to 44-inch balled or container trees and shrubs, along with rocks and light boulders. It has a 3,000-pound carrying capacity and 54-inch fork opening, and one stationary arm and a second arm that can swing open and then close onto the load. A 6-inch tread plate grips bags, boxes, plants and rocks, and an optional pressure-control kit limits the arm-closing pressure and reduces the possibility of damage to the materials, Deere says.
