ZAHN® Tool Carrier
Built for Tight Spaces.
The innovative design of the Zahn R300 tool carrier means you don’t have to sacrifice power for versatility. With both the high- and low-lift models, you’ll get maximum productivity from the dozens of available quick-change compact utility attachments. And with the Zahn’s elevated platform, you'll have a bird’s-eye view of the task at hand.
Zahn Tool Carrier
Power
11-gallon (41.6 L) fuel tank enables the operator to work all day without having to refuel; the tank's molded-in sight glass allows the operator to keep an eye on fuel consumption.
Zahn Tool Carrier
Productivity
The high-lift-arm tool carrier's 73-inch (1.85-m) hinge pin height provides the flexibility to perform an extensive range of tasks.
4-bar linkage on bucket curl increases the high-lift-arm's rollback and dump angles so it can move materials more efficiently.
The high-lift-arm's optional hydraulic self-leveling kit—an exclusive feature in this class—ensures that the attachment is level, so work can be more accurate and efficient.
Kickstand provides quick and easy attachment to and removal from the power unit, increasing productivity.
Standard mini skid steer-type attachment plate (optional with low-lift model) provides maximum versatility by enabling the tool carrier to accept more than 40 quick-change attachments.
Zahn Tool Carrier
Undercarriage
Power unit's exclusive traction-assist feature provides extra drawbar on demand, enabling the operator to push more, pull more and traverse soft ground with minimal tire slippage.
Zahn Tool Carrier
Operator's Station
Standard cruise control, which locks in operating speeds, reduces operator fatigue and increases productivity.
Soft-touch, color-coded, ergonomic controls are easy to grip, easy to learn and provide smooth, easy operation.
Convenient cargo tray is large enough to store a water bottle, work gloves, cell phone, or assorted tools.
