The Best Sideloader for Unusual Loads
The sideloader concept has proven useful for a variety of sectors, carrying concrete barriers, cars and buses, nuclear fuel and pre-fab buildings.


Not all businesses are suited to forklifts or cranes. Some rely on Baumann sideloaders to move their bulky or awkward loads… including juice, Aerospace and crane manufacturers.
Spreading forks or extended carriages help carry extra long loads safely & securely.
Excellent visibility
The panoramic cabin on the Baumann ranges offers excellent visibility, consequently users find it much easier to load on and off stacks and vehicles. The elevated position provides a clear vantage point and views to the rear of the machine are improved by the mast retracting far back into the well.
superb safety features
All round camera systems also supplement the excellent views. Additional features, such as pedestrian recognition alerts; red zonal lights; blue safety lights; audible alarms and on-board operator monitoring systems, help alert managers, operator or pedestrian to issues or dangers.
chassis pivotting/ auto deck levelling
The entire sideloader chassis pivots to provide the equivalent of tilt on a forklift mast, and Baumann sideloaders also adapt to the ground conditions to ensure the bed remains level, even with the ground is not.
Tapered forks, where the tip of the fork is thinner, can also help where gaps between stacked products are small.
PRECISE mast CONTROL
The chassis tilting system, controlled by a single joystick, allows the whole machine to pitch sideways, similar to the tilt function on a forklift mast. Carrying loads six to ten metres in length is achieved with the help of an extended carriage, the length of the machine.
Driven by a chain, the extended carriage enables the forks to spread outside the width of the chassis.
The forks can also be brought in to the well for use as a traditional sideloader. It allows the truck to handle shorter products.
