Your product isn’t in this list?
If your product is not listed among our most popular models on the website, don’t worry – there are a few possible explanations:
- Your product may be a variation or equivalent model
Some Rotobec products share the same structural design and functionality. If your product isn’t named exactly as listed, it could be a variation or equivalent of a product already shown. In these cases, the ID plate location and general configuration are often the same or very similar. - Your unit may be a custom-built product
Rotobec frequently designs custom or modified equipment to suit specific applications. On custom builds, additional attachments or structural changes may result in the relocation of the ID plate to a more suitable or accessible surface. The ID plate should be in a location that is easily visible, accessible, and protected from potential damage during regular operation or maintenance. - Where to check if your model isn’t listed
Even if your exact model isn’t shown, we recommend checking:
– Inside or on the main grapple head structure
– On the outer upper jaw or central yoke
– At the loader base, on the pedestal column
– Near the rotator mount or pivot frame

- Your product may be a variation or equivalent model
Some Rotobec equipment shares the same core structure and features, even if the model names differ slightly. Your unit may be a version or alternative designation of a product already displayed. In these situations, ID plate locations and overall design are typically consistent or very similar. - Your product could be a custom-built unit
Rotobec regularly manufactures customized or adapted equipment to meet unique operational needs. These custom models may include added components or structural changes that require relocating the ID plate to a different surface. Regardless, the plate will be placed somewhere visible, accessible, and shielded from damage during regular use and servicing. - Where to check if your model isn’t listed
Even if your exact model number isn’t shown, we suggest checking these common areas:
