No other hooklift manufacturer currently offers the flexibility of the Stellar® Shuttle16. The Shuttle16 can handle dump containers ranging from 8′ to 15′ and flatbeds ranging from 10′ to 16′ and has a lifting capacity of up to 16,000 lbs. It has a maximum dump angle of 50˚ to 54˚, depending on the length of body.
The Shuttle16 maintains all of Stellar’s efficient operational and mechanical features such as the in-cab controls and body locks to ensure stability and secure attachment. All Stellar Hooklifts feature permanently lubricated greaseable bushings, zinc-plated pins and an efficient low-flow, high-pressure hydraulic system.
