The Blue Ox™ Cable Puller | Hydraulic Boom & Outriggers | 8,500 lb Line Pull Capacity — Product Overview
Powerful, stable, and adaptable for demanding utility cable-pulling applications.
Developed using field research and end-user feedback, The Blue Ox™ Cable Puller combines an 8,500 lb continuous pulling capacity with a heavy-duty steel frame, hydraulically controlled boom, and adjustable outriggers. Its self-supported design eliminates the need to brace the boom arm during pulling operations, while the extendable boom provides flexible positioning in confined and challenging jobsite conditions.
Key Features
- 8,500 lb Pulling Capacity – Delivers continuous pulling force for demanding underground utility and cable-installation projects.
- Hydraulic Boom & Outriggers – The hydraulically controlled boom and heavy-duty outriggers provide stable, self-supported operation without requiring external arm support.
- Extendable Boom – Extends up to 90 in. and provides 150° of lateral movement for improved positioning and access in confined jobsites.
- Multi-Angle Pulling – The boom supports pulls up to 85° from the manhole and 75° to the right or left of center, reducing the need for an A-frame.
- Built-In Level Wind – The rope reel includes 3,000 ft of 3/8-in. anti-twist rope and an integrated level-wind system for controlled rope management.
- Wireless Control – A wireless/Bluetooth remote provides a 50 ft operating range for flexible control of pulling operations.
- Real-Time Feedback – The 7-in. color display provides live tension monitoring and downloadable pull data for job documentation.
- Durable Nylatron Rollers – Super-hard roller surfaces are designed to provide longer service life than conventional cast rollers.
Built for Demanding Jobsites
- Heavy-duty steel frame and rugged components support operation in harsh jobsite conditions.
- Accessible component layout simplifies routine maintenance and service.
