Case Construction Equipment introduces the new Case S Series Multi-fit Coupler, a twin-locking, fully automatic, hydraulic quick coupler that is made from tensile steel-cast materials.
“With financial pressures, tight deadlines and increased competition you don’t have time to worry about equipment letting you down,” said Perry Girard, Product Marketing Manager, Parts and Service, Case Construction Equipment. “The S Series coupler is 20 percent stronger and lighter than conventional couplers allowing you to work more efficiently.”
• 92 to 214 net horsepower
• 21,500 to 48,800 operating weights
• Up to 14 percent fuel savings over previous models
The twin-locking system, which is equipped with two independent mechanical locks, prevents the inadvertent release of an attachment, which can cause damage to equipment, the environment or operators. It is capable of working in both backhoe and face-shovel positions and has a large swing radius for increased digging and lifting power. The system secures both the front and rear attachments in the event of a hydraulic failure or power loss, for added operator safety. The operator can visually confirm both front and rear pins are secure from inside the cab. One-way check valves are located in the coupler cylinder and solenoid valve to allow for full system pressure retention in the event of a hydraulic hose failure.
