HLA Attachments Heavy Duty Universal Quick Fit Plate – Model BOQF10HBO500 is a loader quick-attach adapter designed to connect universal skid-steer attachments to compatible mid-size through industrial loaders. With a rated capacity of 5,500 lb, this heavy-duty adapter provides a practical attachment interface for demanding material-handling applications. Its spring-loaded over-centre lever lock secures attachments manually, while the universal quick-fit design allows operators to use a broad range of universal skid-steer attachments with a suitably equipped loader.
Manufactured by HLA Attachments, also known as Horst Loader Attachments, this quick-fit plate combines the BOQF10H heavy-duty adapter design with HLA’s BO500 universal skid-steer hookup interface. It is intended for loader applications that require a substantial attachment capacity and compatibility with the widely used universal skid-steer attachment connection.
The adapter has a 5,500 lb rated capacity and weighs approximately 250 lb. This combination makes it suitable for mid-size to industrial loaders, subject to the capacity and compatibility of the host machine. The plate serves as the connection point between the loader and a compatible universal skid-steer attachment.
A spring-loaded over-centre lever lock provides the attachment-locking mechanism. This standard configuration is manually operated and does not have a specified hydraulic requirement. Once a compatible attachment is engaged, the lever system is used to secure it to the quick-fit plate.
The manual design is distinct from HLA’s separately listed hydraulically activated configuration. This BOQF10HBO500 model should therefore be selected when a spring-loaded manual locking arrangement is required.
The HLA BOQF10HBO500 accepts attachments using the universal skid-steer interface. This makes it suitable for operators who need to connect compatible universal skid-steer attachments to an appropriate loader.
The BO500 designation identifies HLA’s universal skid-steer quick-attach hookup. It does not identify a single host loader model. Before ordering, confirm that the loader-side hookup, loader configuration, operating capacity, and intended attachment are all appropriate for this adapter. The host machine must also be capable of safely handling the adapter’s approximately 250 lb weight together with the selected attachment and load.
