Curved Deck
(A Patented Feature)

The Retriever’s curved deck creates the flattest loading angle of any similar product... between 10.8° and 14° depending on the chassis being used.

The deck is constructed of high strength steel, measuring 3/16" on the Standard and Heavy Duty models and 1/4" on the Super Duty version.

Because of the low angle and patented curved construction:

  1. "Bottoming out" is eliminated when loading low ground clearance equipment.
  2. Track mounted equipment can be loaded without damage from "breakover" as experienced with flat hinged decks.
  3. Powered equipment can normally be driven aboard.  This dramatically increases loading speeds by eliminating time consuming winching, thereby reducing overhead costs while increasing revenue and margin opportunities.
  4. Steep loading angles, putting equipment at or above operator head level, are a thing of the past, greatly increasing safety and reducing the likelihood of equipment damage and expensive workers compensation accidents.

The addition of only one revenue-producing trip per day can generate incremental revenue ranging from$15,000 to $23,000 annually.
