Thomas Equipment, Ltd.
29 Hawkins Rd., P.O. Box 510
Centreville, NB, E7K3G4
Canada



Press release date: June 13, 2008

With muscle packed into a small frame only 36 inches wide, the Thomas Model 85 Skid Steer Loader brings performance, maneuverability and power for tight workplaces and big jobs, said Thomas Equipment Inc., marketers of a full line of Thomas loaders.

The Thomas 85 packs plenty of muscle in a small frame, yet offers a roomy cap and full range visibility. With a 33-inch wheelbase and 36-inch wide bucket, the Thomas 85 is a hit with any construction crew.

Powered with a reliable 19.8 horsepower Kuboto diesel engine, the Thomas 85 nimble traverses narrow work areas and packs a lot of punch with a lifting capacity of 850 pounds with two bucket cylinders for maximum front end strength and agility and a breakout force of over 2,200 pounds. The small Thomas 85 has a low profile with a big impact.

Petter Etholm, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "The Thomas 85 footprint is small but its performance is huge, bringing strength and great endurance to any worksite. As the smallest of the Thomas Skid Steer Loaders, it has plenty of power to get big jobs done on time and on budget."

With its trademark bright yellow cab and the Thomas logo of a Polar Bear growling across the Thomas "T", the distinctive profile of the Thomas loaders stand out on construction sites and is proudly displayed on the side of the Model 85's rugged frame. The Thomas logo reflects the strength and endurance of a polar bear in each of its skid steer loaders.
