in 1971 takeuchi japan introduced the world's first compact hydraulic
excavator setting the stage for one of the fastest growing product segments
ever released in the compact construction equipment industry many
years of extensive research field testing and evaluation went into making
these excavators some of the most sought-after in the market today
the Takeuchi design philosophy is centered on four pillars performance
durability serviceability and operator comfort the engineering focus is to
build machines to the highest standards of quality and performance machines that
incorporate solutions into each and every component and feature
takeuchi produces a wide selection of compact hydraulic excavators that range
in operating weight from approximately 2,000 pounds to over 34,000 pounds all
excavators feature a long on configuration that provides maximum
working ranges and dig depths that span from five and a half feet all the way up
to 18 feet the smallest models feature hydraulically retractable undercarriages
allow travel between doors gates and other
narrow openings with both conventional and minimum tail swing designs available
takeuchi is able to meet a wide variety of customer needs ensuring they have the
right machine for the job the 200 series are some of our most popular models that
vary in size from approximately 4,000 pounds to nearly 20,000 pounds their
conventional tail swing design provides the operator with an extremely stable
platform that delivers outstanding performance on a variety of job sites
the larger 200 series excavators come equipped with a spacious operator
platform multiple working modes first and second auxilary lines plumb to the
end of the arm and a variety of other standard features to maximize
performance and productivity all of our excavators provide exceptional value
smooth with powerful hydraulics and outstanding service access impressive
bucket and arm crowd forces enable the operator to work in tough applications
and the planetary drives with automatic step-down travel motors generate
powerful traction forces allowing these excavators to enter high torque mode
when under load all Takeuchi excavators feature a
heavy-duty backfill blade with most models featuring blade float function
for increased productivity an optional power angle blade is available on many
models for greater versatility and performance reducing downtime in
increasing the bottom line is all part of a Takeuchi compact hydraulic excavator
this is evident by the use of a variety of components that contribute to the
overall durability of the excavator the heavy-duty frames are well designed to
deter the build-up of dirt and debris and the large wraparound counterweight
protects key engine and hydraulic components from damaged triple flange
track rollers maintain multiple points of contact between the rollers and track lugs reducing the chance of detracking when turning or working in difficult
conditions high capacity hydraulic tanks and oil coolers allow the excavators to
run more efficiently for greater durability and the cushioned cylinders
reduce shock extending component life and improving operator comfort
serviceability is outstanding on all 200 series compact hydraulic excavators each
is designed to simplify daily inspections and minimize downtime when
performing scheduled maintenance ground level access to key service points is
excellent due to the wide opening engine hood and access panels the latest
machines feature a wide opening side hood that allows easy access to the
hydraulic tank hydraulic filter main valve hydraulic lines toolbox and
selector valve for auxilary hydraulics grease points are well marked making
easy to identify and all fuel fill locations are lockable and protect them
against vandalism the spacious operator station on Takeuchi compact hydraulic
excavators provide an exceptional level of comfort and functionality the
operator will enjoy increased interior room outstanding visibility improved
foot space adjustable arm rests low effort pilot controls deluxe high back
suspension seats and an isolation mounted platform that minimizes
vibration and noise levels for a higher level of comfort and closed cabs are
available for many models and include features such as air conditioning and
heat am/fm radio with mp3 connection storage compartments sliding side glass
and front window with assisted lift all Takeuchi excavators are rugged
dependable and productive they provide exceptional value demonstrate
outstanding performance and are measured by their longevity in the field when you
invest in a Takeuchi you receive over five decades of equipment innovation and
dedication to quality
