Avant Introduces The New 400 Series Loader

Avant has introduced the new 400 series. It comes between the 200 and 500 series as the basic articulated diesel model with 20hp Kubota engine. The 400 series features a modern design with excellent ergonomics and great lifting and loading capabilities but in dimensions it is more compact than the 500 series.

Many customers have been asking for a diesel engine on the 200 series, and now they have the answer. It is a very useful and versatile machine for both professional and do-it-yourself use. It is also a logical step between 200 series and bigger Avant machines.

Whilst the Avant 420 is more compact than Avant 520 it can be equipped with a telescopic boom with a lift height of 2.8 metres and a tipping load of approximately 600kg . The attachment coupling system is the same as on bigger Avant models so almost the whole Avant attachment range is available for the 420 providing they comply with the 31 l/min auxiliary hydraulics oil flow.

"With the introduction of the new 420 model Avant has responded to many of our clients’ requirements in providing a very compact machine with a diesel engine with the capacity to do most jobs when partnered with the correct Avant attachments. We are pleased to add this model to our range." stated Lee Chater, Sales Director of Versatile Equipment, authorised dealers for Avant products.
