FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Compact Design
- Enables you to work in a wide range of applications and the conventional tail swing provides greater stability and larger operator’s station.

Ease of Maintenance
- Rear hood and right side cover open high overhead providing exceptional access to inspection and maintenance points.

Function and Efficiency
- The variable displacement axial piston pump delivers smooth, harmonized control of the work equipment with no reduction in speed.
- The standard long arm with integrated thumb mount provides you with a wider working range, dig depth, and simplifies thumb installation.
- Having three auxiliary circuits allows you to run a wide range of hydraulically driven attachments and have a dedicated hydraulic coupler circuit.
- High flow capabilities of the primary auxiliary circuit will allow you to operate a broader range of hydraulically driven attachments, such as mowers, mulchers, and plate compactors.
- Load sensing, two speed travel down shifts from low torque/high speed mode to high torque/low speed travel automatically when turning, pushing dirt, or traveling up an incline.
- Large slew bearing provides greater longevity and stability over the life of the machine.
- Cushioned cylinders improve longevity by reducing shock and they reduce felt recoil to the operator for greater comfort.
- Available case drain line kit is recommended for use with an excavator mulcher.

Takeuchi Fleet Management
- 2 Year Standard Service
- Minimize Downtime
- Remote Diagnostics
- Utilization Tracking
- Proactive Maintenance
- Control Costs
- Geofencing

Increased Protection
- All steel construction ensures body integrity through greater strength and rigidity and protects key components from damage.
- Heavy duty counterweight protects vital engine and hydraulic components from damage.
- Triple flange track rollers improve track life by providing greater support, and they feature multiple contact points that reduce the risk of de-tracking.

Operator Focused
- Deluxe high back adjustable suspension seat reduces operator fatigue while providing greater visibility to the work equipment and surrounding job site.
- Multifunction, LED monitor provides the operator with machine vitals, flow adjustments, and attachment presets.
- Electronic dial type throttle control allows the operator to quickly adjust engine speed, and the automatic engine idle feature will reduce engine speed to low idle automatically should the machine idle more than several seconds.

Peace of Mind
- The safe start system requires the safety lockout lever be in the raised position in order to start the excavator ensuring hydraulic functions are inactive at start-up.
- The boom holding valve and overload alarm are designed to keep the boom from dropping if there is a sudden loss in pressure, and the overload alarm will sound (when ON) if you exceed hydraulic capacity.
- Available drop-in 1/2″ poly carbonate glass or heavy duty 1/2″ poly carbonate window guard with steel frame, and steel front guard group provide the added protection you need when using hydraulically driven attachments.
