hey I'm Lee Padgett I'm a product specialist here at Takeuchi today we're
gonna be taking a look at some of the features and benefits of the TL8 with
an operating weight of eight thousand four hundred and fifty five pounds and a
rated operating capacity of two thousand one hundred and five pounds the TL8
is a versatile well rounded machine for many different applications at the front
of the machine you immediately notice the robust steel construction of the TL8
heavy duty cross members provide strength and durability while protecting
the tilt cylinders attachment coupling is easy with our mechanical Universal
quick attached on canopy models and hydraulic Universal quick attached on
cab models the TL8 auxilary hydraulics feature a half inch flat
faced pressure relieving coupler block case train and a standard fourteen pin
electrical connector standard flow delivers eighteen point four gallons per
minute of flow while the high flow option provides up to 33 gallons per
minute the TL8 features the highest ground clearance in its class thanks in
part to its purpose-built fully welded one-piece track loader frame integrated
cross members provide superior strength and rigidity while adjustable loader arm
stops helped to transfer the shock and load through the frame of the machine
rather than through the loader arms for greater durability and longevity looking
at the undercarriage you will see the continuation of our purpose-built
philosophy the Takeuchi undercarriage has an open frame design with multiple
integrated cross members for greater strength and easier clean-out the drive
lines are located behind heavy gauge steel covers protecting them from dirt
and debris. Takeuchi undercarriage components are model-specific and
feature larger bearings that result in slower shaft speeds for a longer
component life heavy duty permanently sealed rollers include metal faced seals
to keep dirt and other contaminants out for greater durability double reduction
planetary drives deliver exceptional traction force to power the machine in
the most demanding conditions the radial lift boom design provides greater bucket
breakout and lift arm forces and delivers greater mid-height reach when
compared to vertical lift designs making the TL8 the perfect machine for your
landscape and grading applications at the rear of the machine the large lockable
service hood and heavy duty steel door provide excellent protection for vital
engine components with the rear door open
you have access to the heavy-duty side-by-side cooling module that swings
out for easier inspection and cleaning daily inspection points are also easily
accessed in the rear of the machine and include engine oil dipstick engine oil
fill air cleaners hydraulic oil sight gauge and fuel water separator access to
the high-capacity steel hydraulic tank and filter are through the left rear
tower which also provides a high level of protection all Takeuchi track loaders
feature Takeuchi fleet management telematics TFM is designed to remotely
connect users to their Takeuchi machines TFM will provide alerts and machine
information including location utilization performance and maintenance
data giving insights into where and how equipment is utilized by tilting the
operator station up on the TL8 you have access to all of your remote filters
hydraulic components exhaust after-treatment system the front half of
the engine and hydraulic pumps large removable belly pans allow for clean out
of unwanted debris the TL8s cabin features a six-way adjustable high back
suspension seat visibility is outstanding thanks in part to the sloped
rear deck and a large rear window which also makes for a great egress point in
case of emergency the roll-up door allows the machine to operate with the
loader arms in any position with the door open or closed for greater
convenience pilot controls are low effort and precise reducing operator
fatigue while increasing productivity. Its automotive style interior features a
well laid out set of rocker switches a display panel to monitor machine vitals
as well as two speed travel with foot throttle I want to thank you today for
