TESTIMONIALS

The new box construction of the Extendo 944X boom was noticeably more stable, especially under load and at full extension. The machine delivered plenty of power. What’s nice about the new machine is they’re using almost the same control system. It was very easy for the guys to transition from the older telehandler to the new model. Positioning the machine was very easy with how smooth the controls are.

Right now probably 75% of our cars come in on flats. We also do gondolas, which is the greatest advantage to the Pettibone (Cary-Lift) because a gondola is a box style car. The old-school way with our articulating loader was we had to get into the car personally, wrap bands around the pipe and load it up with the forks – which is very unsafe. The Pettibone is a great advantage that we have when it comes to the gondolas. When you have to dip down inside of the cars to pinch the pipe out and bring it back out safely without it all falling, it is a great convenience to have.

When it comes to using a telehandler on the jobsite, nothing comes close to Pettibone. The reliability is incredible. The features are simple to use and the response time in the joystick is perfect. Visibility around the machine is like no other. The crab walk feature has come in handy on a lot of tighter jobs. I have been in the operator seat for over 20 years, when you operate something for 8 to 10 hours a day, you want a Pettibone.

Pettibone is the best piece of equipment ever made – top of the line equipment for a pipe yard.

If safely and efficiently handling, unloading and loading pipe is your goal, you just can’t beat a Pettibone Cary-Lift. Our Cary-Lift units are the workhorses in our rough terrain pipe yard, and their unique articulating arms allow us to safely unload and load trucks using less time and labor. We document maintenance records on all of our equipment and know that the strength of our well-constructed Cary-Lifts, in conjunction with a sensible preventive maintenance program, has resulted in very dependable units with a long work life.

Our Cary-Lifts have been nothing but phenomenal machines to run. Speed, agility, maneuverability – all of these features allow us to get pipe around our yard quickly and efficiently.

You can feel the stability! I always felt like I could tip over in the wheel-loader I drove, but the Cary-Lift is rock solid.

Pettibone is fantastic to work with. The support, the small group they have – they work together very well. They respond back to the dealer needs fairly quickly. Pettibone is kind of a family and very enjoyable to deal with – lots of personal care.

I love the fact that Pettibone really stands behind their product. They make a great product, a quality product and they are really proud of what they have come up with – and we’re proud to promote them. Pettibone is there for everything we need. They’re a phone call, an email, a text away. They are willing to go to the next step to make sure our customers get the full satisfaction that they deserve.

We’ve been a dealer for Pettibone since 1970. The majority of our customers are masons or framers, and they demand Pettibone. Pettibone uses Parker Hydraulics, which is the best in the industry, very responsive and soft to the touch. So, when they have a heavy load of valuable goods on the frame, it’s a machine that handles that material softly. The masons really appreciate that.

We specialize in exporting manufactured goods overseas. Historically most of our Pettibone work has gone into Algeria. They have some of the longest pipeline systems in the world. Because of all the pipelines, they have a lot of pipe yards, so our focus with Pettibone has been the pipe handling machines (Cary-Lifts). The operators look at a Pettibone product as one, making them safer, and two, helping them do their job more efficiently.

Pettibone has always made a good quality product. It’s stable. It’s stout. A lot of the larger contractors we work with are looking for products that are going to last – and they like the quality of Pettibone.

Pettibone material handling equipment is rugged and innovative, particularly in demanding load handling applications.
