Ideal for narrow vein applications
Mechanical drive
Designed for ground-level maintenance with no climbing


The hard rock loader is a diesel-powered heavy-duty machine intended for the most demanding mine environments. It is only 1.5 meters wide so it is perfect for small narrow-vein applications where maneuvering space is limited. The rock loader, like all Joy loaders, is designed specifically for ease of use and maintenance, with simple operation gauges and a rugged long-life structure, providing the lowest possible total costs of operation including low capital costs.

Designed for safe operation and maintenance
The hard rock loader includes multiple features that are designed to maximize safety for both the operator and the maintenance staff:
Fail-safe braking system features a spring-applied braking system that activates when low hydraulic oil pressure or electrical failures are detected
Operation interlocks prevent accidental machine activation
Three-point mounting and anti-slip steps minimize slips and falls
Hot component isolation to prevent burns
Designed for reliability

The hard rock loader has been designed for reliability and long component life, including the following features:
Rugged steel frame
MIL (military specification) components that meet international standards
