John Deere Expands Attachment Line with MB60 Material Boom

With John Deere‘s new MB60 Material Boom, consider your next job — handled. The MB60 is designed to give operators greater control when lifting, moving and placing heavy or irregularly shaped materials in confined jobsite environments. It’s built for landscaping, general contracting and nursery operations. John Deere said the attachment helps operators securely rig and precisely place loads when buckets, forks or grapples are not as efficient.

“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.”

According to the press release, the MB60 features a 6,000-lb rated lifting capacity — delivering strong and reliable performance across a wide range of applications. It also has dual hook points which provide flexible rigging options. These allow operators to adjust configurations based on the size, shape and balance requirements of each load.

The MB60 can be mounted to the front of a John Deere skid steer, compact track loader or compact wheel loader when equipped with the appropriate coupler interface. It enhances maneuverability and allows for precise material placement in confined and hard-to-reach areas.
