Nylint Construction Toys
Version #4 was sometimes offered in retail
catalogs without the magnet attachment.
The dual headlights are reminders of Version #2
but are placed into a different front-end stamping.
Like Version #3, the rear
deck does not feature an
angle brace.
The screw-down jacks
have been replaced with
"flippers" and the rear
deck stamping is now
embossed.
There is no change
regarding the boom lift
control mechanism.
The bucket lift control
wheel remains the same
as Version #3.
No steering was
available for Version #4
The underside remains
unchanged from the
previous version.
A CAUTION! sticker was
applied to magnet
equipped versions.
While the outside of the
wheels looked similar,
Versions #3 and #4
featured "hollowed-out"
tires.
The door decal was a
complete change for
Version #4.
The bucket release disc
was much bigger in
diameter - to
accommodate the
magnet attachment.
