CREATED FOR IMPLEMENTATION
The integrated power train with differential steering and an updated hydraulic system work together to provide power and improved machine maneuverability for any application of the pipe layer.
Electrohydraulics provides greater response and precise control of motors with adjustable winch speed for high loads, which improves machine performance.
The counterweight profile improves the load capacity.
Differential steering maintains full power on both tracks for best-in-class steering, even with a loaded boom, increasing maneuverability in hard to reach places.
The improved center of gravity of the machine and the elongated frame of the tracked roller with the rear tension wheel shifted provide a large cross on the ground, improving the slope.
BECAUSE ONLY ACCOUNTS
Equipped with Product Link ™, which provides remote monitoring and improves overall fleet management.
Full engine maintenance on the left side, including the filler tube, the dipstick, the air filter, the fuel filters, the oil filter and the coolant level check, ensures quick and efficient scheduled maintenance.
High oil replacement speed is standard and makes maintenance even faster.
The hydraulic system and power transmission filters, as well as the fuel tank drain, are located behind the machine and are easy to maintain from ground level.
Pressure taps are located inside the hydraulic system to provide quick monitoring.
The main components, such as the engine, transmission and final drives, have a modular design for faster removal during maintenance, cost savings and downtime.
DEVELOPED FOR OPERATORS
Joystick attachments places all the controls and functions of attachments in one hand.
The ergonomic and positioned low-effort control knob provides simultaneous accurate positioning of the load line, boom and retractable counterweight.
Dual brake pedal control provides improved maneuverability and steering.
Planetary differential steering contributes to excellent maneuverability in hard-to-reach places of work, as well as increases bias.
WORK IN COMFORT
A quieter pressurized cab with a heated / ventilated seat increases operator comfort and productivity.
The ergonomic seat is located for better visibility of the working area and convenient access to the machine control lever, switches and pedals.
BUILT-IN SAFETY FEATURES
The Load Monitor Indicator (LMI) is ready from the factory and can accept regional LMI systems.
Comfortable steps, handles and railings provide safe access / exit.
Enlarged roof window with retractable blinds, extra mirrors and a corner door improves visibility of the trench, boom and blocks.
The standard operator presence detection system allows the machine to remain idle when the operator is not sitting, but is blocking the power train to avoid unintended movement.
A rearview camera is available to further improve visibility around the car.
