An innovative global leader in compact equipment, Takeuchi-US has just launched the first machine in the company’s 300 Series line of compact hydraulic excavators—the TB370. This latest edition is in the 6-7 ton class and is an exceptional option for a wide range of contractors including general contractors, landscapers, utility contractors, as well as the rental industry.

 

“Takeuchi is extremely excited to advance the next generation of excavators,” says Keith Kramlich, National Product and Training Manager at Takeuchi. “By adding the TB370 to our excavator line-up, Takeuchi continues its long-standing tradition of innovation and technology that improves efficiency and performance.”

 

The TB370 features an operating weight of 14,793 lbs., a dig depth of 13' 4.8", maximum reach of 21' 11.3", and a bucket breakout force of 14,613 lb. A Kubota turbocharged, EPA Final Tier 4 emission-compliant diesel engine delivers 56.8 hp and 157 ft-lb of torque. The TB370 also features a load-sensing hydraulic system that provides 31 gpm of auxiliary hydraulic flow making it an extremely versatile, powerful, and efficient machine.

 

The TB370 also boasts a wide range of state-of-the-art features that include an 8" touch screen, multi-function color monitor with integrated air conditioner and radio functions. The automotive-styled interior is spacious and has been completely redesigned, promoting operator comfort throughout the day. An intuitive jog dial and switch panel gives the operator complete control of machine functions and features.

 

For greater versatility, the TB370 will include first, second, and third auxiliary circuits that will allow the operator to run a wide range of attachments. The additional third circuit gives the operator the option of adding a hydraulic, pin-grabber coupler to simplify and improve attachment interchangeability.
