Backhoes & Attachments
Compact tractor loader
backhoe
The Allmand TLB-220 heavy-duty
compact tractor loader backhoe is designed to maneuver in tight areas
and can be towed on a trailer behind a pick-up truck. The 3,115-pound
machine features a Subaru EH65D air-cooled gasoline engine generating
20.5 hp at 3,600 rpm. The TLB-220 features a 2,875-pound digging force
as well as an 8-foot, 4-inch digging depth. A load-sensing hydraulic
steering system ensures hydraulic flow is used only when the operator is
turning the steering wheel.

Drilling attachments
Designed for use with both small and large hydraulic systems, the
DIG-R-TACH line from General
Equipment is suitable for use with skid-steer loaders, small
excavators, knuckleboom cranes and small backhoes. The 671 DIG-R-TACH
Series 16 earth-drilling attachments (pictured) is intended for smaller
hydraulic systems, whereas the Series 24 is designed for larger
hydraulic systems found with backhoes and excavators. Featuring a
two-speed chain/sprocket drive and a 5- to 20-gpm hydraulic flow range,
the Series 16 balances smaller flow volumes in proportion to auger
diameters, resulting in a cleaner hole with less loose soil and debris.

Power trencher
Ditch Witch introduces the
Zahn R150 power unit, which includes a Honda gas engine, operator’s
console and an articulation joint that provides improved
maneuverability. The power unit drives a front-end trencher that is
designed to concentrate its weight on the digging chain, so it
penetrates the ground easier and enhances overall stability. The
R150’s fully hydraulic, articulated steering provides maneuverability,
enabling the operator to easily trench a curve around trees, swimming
pools, and other obstacles that utility workers and landscapers
inevitably come across.

ST zero-turning-radius steerable walk-behind trencher. The 1324 ST is
designed to trench sprinkler grids, electrical lines and other
applications. The trencher offers maneuverability and one-hand steering
for transporting the machine from the trailer to the jobsite. Precise
wheel control is designed to help eliminate drifting, making the 1324 ST
suited for trenching uneven terrain or hillsides.

Other Products
Remote control system
Bobcat introduces the loader
radio remote control system, which enhances the capabilities of Bobcat
skid-steer and compact track loaders with selectable joystick controls
as well as Bobcat all-wheel-steer loaders, offering a simple solution
for customers who want to operate their loader remotely. Operators can
start the loader engine, and operate the drive, lift, tilt and auxiliary
hydraulic functions from approximately 1,500 feet away with the radio
remote control transmitter. The system is useable for up to 15 hours on
a rechargeable battery. Operators can use the system in various climate
conditions and also easily switch between remote control mode and
machine/direct control mode. The remote control system option is
designed for various markets, especially the military because of a
military mandate that one third of all ground vehicles must be unmanned
beginning in 2015. Other possible markets include shipping yards,
nuclear power plants, foundries, mining, chemical plants, government,
construction, agriculture and landscaping.
