Product Overview
Description
The ECHO PF180 Box Flipper is built for skid steer operators who need to dump, rotate, and handle bulk containers without unloading everything by hand. Designed to run off your skid steer’s auxiliary hydraulics, this attachment rotates a full 180 degrees with smooth single-cylinder operation.
Whether you are flipping seed boxes, emptying storage containers, dumping scrap, or handling bulk material, the PF180 turns pallet forks into a controlled dumping tool. Instead of fighting totes, boxes, and bins with chains, straps, or manual labor, you can lift, rotate, and dump from the seat of your machine.
If your operation moves material in boxes, totes, or containers, this is the attachment that makes those jobs faster, cleaner, and a whole lot easier.
Features
- Full 180 degree hydraulic rotation allows controlled dumping of seed boxes, storage containers, totes, and bulk material
- Single-cylinder rotation system keeps operation simple, smooth, and easy to control
- Skid steer auxiliary hydraulic operation runs directly from your machine’s standard hydraulic controls
- Rotating pallet fork design lets you lift, carry, and dump without switching attachments
- Heavy-duty frame construction built for repeated farm, shop, and yard use
- Ideal for seed boxes and bulk containers where hand unloading is slow and inefficient
- Skid steer quick attach mount provides fast hookup to most skid steers and compact track loaders

FAQs
What is the PF180 used for
The PF180 is used to lift, rotate, and dump seed boxes, totes, storage containers, scrap bins, and other bulk material containers.
How far does it rotate
It rotates a full 180 degrees, giving you enough movement to fully dump boxes and containers without manually unloading them.
Does this replace regular pallet forks
It can handle many fork-style jobs, but its main advantage is controlled rotation for dumping and flipping containers.
Do I need hydraulics to run it
Yes. The PF180 runs off your skid steer’s auxiliary hydraulics.
Is this useful for seed boxes
Yes. Seed boxes are one of the best use cases because the PF180 lets you rotate and empty them without hand unloading.
What makes this better than tipping a box with standard forks
Standard forks rely on machine tilt and can be uncontrolled. The PF180 gives you dedicated 180 degree rotation for smoother, safer dumping.
Can one operator use it
Yes. One operator can lift, rotate, and dump from the skid steer seat, which reduces extra labor.
What is the biggest mistake people make without a box flipper
Using chains, straps, or awkward fork angles to dump containers, which wastes time and gives you less control.
