Towable mini-excavators
Innovative Equipment offers its line of TMX Towable Mini-Excavators. Designed in a towable, easy-to-maneuver package, the TMX units offer an excavating solution for a variety of markets, including rental, municipal, landscape and plumbing. Featuring a quick-on and quick-off hitch system, the TMX units can be hooked behind a standard 1/2-ton pick-up, van or light-duty tow vehicle, saving fuel and hassle. No trailer is needed, and no CDL license is required, making it a good option for do-it-yourselfers and small contractors. Lockout drive hubs enable towing at highway speeds of 65 mph. Unlike conventional mini-excavators, TMX units eliminate tracks by utilizing zero-turn technology common on lawn mowers. The zero-turn rotation enables convenient access to tight locations and allows work on well-established lawns or greens by virtually eliminating the potential for turf damage. The drive tires are designed for mud terrain, ensuring performance and traction in demanding applications. Featuring an orbital motor with tapered roller bearings on the output shaft, the wheel motors allow durability for challenging loads. Weighing 2,941 pounds, the TMX features an 8-foot digging depth and a 6,600-pound digging force. The unit also features a 7-foot 2-inch loading height with a swing radius of 140 degrees, allowing easy digging access next to walls and other obstructions.
