Vehicle battery charger

The new vehicle charger from Milwaukee plugs into 12 volt outlets and accepts all M18 and M12 battery packs, charging them sequentially. With Milwaukee Redlink Intelligence, the charger communicates directly with M18 and M12 battery packs to monitor cell voltage, temperature, and charge status to optimize the performance and overall life of the packs.

Excavator-mount potter

The new excavator-mount potter from Dutchmaster makes digging for small plants in narrow rows easier. The new potters can be built with either two or three blades, and on 12-, 15-, or 25-degree angles to properly fit the pot or basket of choice. They use minimal ground space when working and offer excellent visibility, as the operator can look under the spade instead of overtop. The high frame potter can dig in areas as tight as two- by two-ft. centres, and can be outfitted with electronic controls.
