New Takeuchi reduced tail swing compact excavator overhangs 3.1 inches over rear tracks

Takeuchi has added the new generation TB335R short tail swing compact excavator to its TB300 series. This excavator features updated functions that provide ideal performance and peace of mind.

"The TB335R's short tail swing design results in a rear overhang of only 3.1 inches over the tracks, making it ideal for working in tight or confined spaces," says David Caldwell, national product manager for Takeuchi.

The TB335R has an operating weight of 8,310 lbs. (3,770 kgs.), a maximum bucket breakout force of 9,127 lbs. (40.6 kN), and a maximum arm digging force of 4,290 lbs. (19.1 kN). The excavator is powered by an EPA Tier 4/EU Stage V emission-compliant engine delivering 24.4 hp (18.2 kW) and a maximum torque of 70.6 ft-lbs. (95.8 Nm). The TB335R offers two working modes – Standard and ECO – allowing operators to match the mode to the task at hand, choosing more power or fuel savings as desired.

Offering a range of advanced features, the TB335R's spacious cab includes a seven-inch touchscreen and multi-function colour display. Canopy models offer a 4.3-inch, high-definition, multi-function display. Cab models also feature an air conditioner, heat/defrost, windshield wiper and washer, skylight w/ sunshade, and AM/FM radio with Bluetooth technology. Both cab and canopy models have low-effort, pilot-operated joystick controls, a deluxe high-back suspension seat with a head rest and a retractable seat belt to keep operators comfortable and productive.

The Takeuchi Fleet Management (TFM) telematics system is standard on the TB335R during the warranty period. With TFM, owners and operators can remotely connect to their Takeuchi track loaders and excavators. TFM delivers alerts and machine information such as location, utilization, performance, and maintenance status, as well as insights into how and where equipment is being operated.
