Backhoes & Attachments
Loader
backhoes
New Holland announces five
new loader backhoes from 95 to 110 gross hp. The B95 and B95TC models
are in the 14-foot size class, and the B95LR, B110 and B115 (pictured)
are in the 15-foot size class. The inline loader linkage, high-capacity
hydraulics and traditional geometry give these machines their powerful
lift capacity. In addition, because fast cycle time is essential to
productivity, the new loader backhoes feature high-capacity,
fast-response hydraulics.

Backhoe
coupler
Komatsu offers its
factory-installed JRB hydraulic front coupler on the WB146-5, WB146PS-5,
WB156-5 and WB 156PS-5 backhoe models. The coupler has a four-point
pick-up for ease of coupling, even on uneven terrain. The hydraulic
installation kit utilizes existing loader hydraulics. Top-mounted
coupler contact points and lower coupler pins engagement are already
visible by the operator. The lockable switch to open and close the
coupler cylinder is located on the side dash. The load center of gravity
is only 2 inches from the original pin-on attachment position for
minimal reduction of lift capacity and breakout force.
