What do you notice?

Step aboard the KM-100 mobile crane. Now, hoist away! First a capacity 10-ton load. Next a lighter one. What do you notice? The lighter load goes up faster. Kubota's torque con- verter automatically regulates lifting speed for maximum efficiency according to load. Now hit the controls. Slew! Derrick! Hoist! Travel! Do any of these singly or in any com- bination. All controls operate independently. Power? The KM-100 has it. 81 diesel-fed horses. On the straightaway you can move around at 10 KPH. Now, deliver one load and pick up another.

Notice how the full slewing-and that means full: 360°-lets you get at work all around you with a minimum of shifting position.

The operating ease of the work to be done, when it's done, doesn't wear you or the

machine down.

Now come back down to earth and tell us where there's a machine to match the Kubota

KM-100.
