Compact Excavators

FR series Takeuchi Compact Excavators

By ACT Construction EquipmentUpdated July 2022

Not all machines are made to work in tight quarters. You may have experienced this problem with a conventionally designed compact excavator’s wide working area requirements. Those machines often have a significant tail swing that prohibits working in confined areas which can lead to damage to the machine and work area.

Takeuchi’s FR series compact excavators were designed to help you work more efficiently in confined areas. Some of the features that make this machine the ideal choice are:

  • Offers excellent visibility to the work area as the boom and cab are offset. 
  • The boom arm has a side-to-side function allowing it to move laterally independent of the cab and body of the excavator. 
  • Includes an optimized counterweight placement that gives the machines a very tight tail swing and excellent stability.
  • Auxiliary hydraulic circuits for excellent attachment platforms.

Machines available in the FR configuration are: TB257FR and TB280FR
