“The TB370W has all the benefits of a wheeled excavator – mobility, speed, versatility, manoeuvrability and minimal ground impact,” said Clay Eubanks, director of global sales for Takeuchi.

“It combines powerful excavating performance with on-road capabilities, all in a more compact size, making it an ideal machine for shorter-term, faster-paced projects.”

The TB370W offers higher travel speeds with two-wheel steering and an auto cruise control feature, allowing operators to set and adjust their travel speeds easily. It has a wider operating range with a two-piece variable angle boom, precise hydraulic operations using a load-sensing hydraulic system, and up to four auxiliary hydraulic circuits for enhanced productivity.

Operators can select their preferred working mode from Standard, ECO, and ECO Plus. ECO Plus automatically optimises the excavator’s working mode between standard and ECO based on its load for optimal efficiency.

Weighing 7,900 kg (17,415 lbs) with outriggers and a blade, the excavator is powered by an EU Stage V compliant diesel engine, delivering 54.6 kW (73.2 hp) at 2,700 rpm and up to 221.7 Nm (163.5 ft-lbs) of torque.

The excavator provides a maximum bucket breakout force of 48.4 kN (10,881 lbs), maximum arm digging force of 29.4 kN (6,609 lbs), and a traction force of 61.7 kN (13,871 lbs).

The cab of the TB370W features an 8-inch multifunction touchscreen display that gives operators easy access to a wide range of functions, including HVAC settings and DAB radio with Bluetooth functionality. 

In Europe and the United States, the TB370W comes standard with the Takeuchi Fleet Management (TFM) telematics system, allowing owners and operators to remotely connect to their excavators and track loaders. TFM provides alerts and machine information, such as location, utilisation, performance, and maintenance status, offering insights into equipment operation.
