There are numerous Retriever features that add to its efficiency, when combined nothing else comes close. The Retriever’s rapid cycle time saves time. The shallow loading angle allows most equipment to simply and safely be driven on/off. High traction surfaces speed operations without winching. Available under-deck chain boxes put chains within easy reach for operators rather than having to dig them out of a box or from a rack. Chain Binder Storage Racks put binders within easy reach. Numerous key-slot tie-down points offer speed, and safe load securement.  The low deck height allows most loads to be secured from the ground. There is no waiting for Retriever systems to warm up in cold weather. The available Traverse Mounted Winch provides flexibility when narrow machines must be winched in a side by side configuration and provides an angled pull when transporting broken down equipment. Available 3,000-Watt Diesel APU provides instant power when loading discharged battery-powered equipment on the job site, as well as charging in transit.  Diesel fuel from the truck system eliminates “out of fuel” headaches. The Retriever’s lighter weight allows for the hauling of larger equipment on a smaller truck.
