Series 1000 Hydraulic Coupler
Our legacy coupler system that established our reputation as the leader in attachment changeover technology. Highly regarded for its dependability — we still make it because they still demand it. Since 1968, the Series 1000 has provided outstanding service for thousands of contractors, municipalities, utilities, state agencies and all branches of the military. The Series 1000 Coupler system is available for all 4-arm and Z-bar wheel track loaders, tractor-loaderbackhoes and motor graders.
Single-Point Hookup
The Series 1000 Coupler was the innovator for the quick coupler industry, introducing the concept of “single point hookup” to the marketplace. The Series 1000 also features an open frame design, full faceplate contact and heavy-duty construction.
One loader, many tools
While you can order all of your new attachments to work as a kit with the Series 1000, we realize that you can’t just throw away the buckets you already own. That’s why we designed adapters that are both easily installed on your existing attachments and rugged enough to keep your tool arsenal fully productive.

Features

Open Frame Construction
Allows the operator to clearly see when coupling and uncoupling attachments. Hydraulic actuation allows the operator to lock and unlock the coupler from the cab with no need for assistance. -
Snout Design
New snout design constructed of an alloy blend of material to deliver wear resistance, strength and
impact resistance. Manufactured as a steel casting for consistent sizing and to create a perfect fit with every coupler. Our snout design also features an integrated base that interlocks with the attachment for increased wear resistance. Back-side of the snout has a corner radius to avoid stress and to better distribute the workload across the surface.
