Select coupler type matching your wheel loader's quick coupler. The 22,000 lb maximum capacity applies at the closest extension position only (Position 1, 24"). Never exceed the position-specific rated capacity shown on the load chart. Contact Haugen at 877-580-6218 if your wheel loader's coupler is not listed.
Designed for wheel loaders with JRB 416, JRB 418, or Cat Fusion quick couplers. Select the coupler style matching your machine:
| JRB 416 | JRB 418 | Cat Fusion |
Verify coupler type with your wheel loader dealer before ordering. Both JRB 416 and JRB 418 are compatible with both single-slide and dual-slide configurations.

Q: What is the difference between Single Slide (WL1) and Dual Slide (WL2)?
The Single Slide (WL1) has one telescoping section and extends to 15 feet maximum. The Dual Slide (WL2) has two telescoping sections and extends to 13'2" maximum. The dual slide has a shorter maximum reach but a more compact retracted profile and may have different intermediate position spacing. Choose WL1 if you need maximum reach (15 ft); choose WL2 if you have space constraints or prefer the dual-slide mechanism. |
|
Q: How do I know if my wheel loader uses JRB 416, JRB 418, or Cat Fusion?
JRB 416 and 418 are quick coupler standards common on Komatsu, John Deere, Volvo, and some Cat wheel loaders. Cat Fusion is Caterpillar's proprietary quick coupler standard. Consult your wheel loader's operation manual or dealer to confirm the specific coupler on your machine. The coupler style is a mechanical specification of the carriage; it does not depend on machine size or model year, only the coupler installed. |
|
Q: What is the capacity at full extension (15 ft or 13'2")?
The capacity chart provided with the jib shows position-specific ratings. At Position 5 (~180" / 15 ft for Single Slide), capacity drops significantly from the 22,000 lb maximum at Position 1. Based on the published chart, Position 5 is approximately 2,800 lbs — a fraction of Position 1 capacity. Always consult the load chart before lifting and never exceed the position-specific rated capacity. |
|
Q: Can I add a swivel hook to replace the weld-on hook?
The standard hook is a weld-on fixed hook. Haugen offers upgrade options for swivel hooks on the MIJ series (H-M001, H-M002 upgrades). Contact Haugen at 877-580-6218 for availability of swivel hook upgrades on the MIJ-WL series specifically. |
|
Q: Is the MIJ-WL available for other wheel loader coupler standards?
Haugen currently offers JRB 416, JRB 418, and Cat Fusion. For other coupler standards (JRB 412, Volvo, New Holland, etc.), contact Haugen at 877-580-6218. They state "If you don't see the mount you need, please call us to quote the jib for your machine." |
