John Deere is expanding its lineup of compact equipment attachments with the MB60 Material Boom, designed to give operators greater control when lifting, moving, and placing heavy or irregularly shaped materials in confined job site environments. Built for landscaping, general contracting, and nursery operations, the material boom helps operators securely rig and precisely place loads when buckets, forks, or grapples are not as efficient.

The MB60 Material Boom delivers precise material placement in hard-to-reach spaces 

The MB60 features a 6,000 lb. rated lifting capacity, delivering reliable performance across a wide range of applications. Dual hook points provide flexible rigging options, allowing operators to adjust configurations based on the size, shape, and balance requirements of each load.

When mounted to the front of a John Deere skid steer, compact track loader, or compact wheel loader, the boom enhances manoeuvrability 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.

"The MB60 Material Boom is designed to make difficult lifts feel more manageable," said Emily Pagura, marketing manager, John Deere. "It offers versatility and helps operators execute precise placement with greater confidence."
