Takeuchi introduces the TB138FR zero-tail-swing model to its line of excavators. It features a patented side-to-side offset boom system combined with a zero-tail swing that allows the machine to turn 360 degrees. A low center of gravity offers the stability and craning capabilities of conventional excavators and the added functionality of working in confined areas. A tilt-up operator's platform combined with a full-opening engine compartment offers quick access for service and maintenance. An electrohydraulic push-button and proportional slide switch located in the left-hand joystick ensures precise control of the auxiliary hydraulic circuit.
