The Takeuchi TB280FR Excavator is a unique platform that separates itself from the competition with its unique side-toside (STS) boom configuration and full rotation (FR) capabilities.

One of the greatest benefits of the STS boom is the unmatched visibility to the attachment and job site. This design also allows the boom to be stowed over center in the full upright position enabling it to make a full rotation (FR) within a very tight radius allowing it to work within similar confines as a smaller 5 ton machine for greater performance and productivity.

Additional features include an updated cabin with automotive styled interior, color multi-informational display, multiple attachment presets with operator adjustable flow rates, standard auxiliary hydraulic circuits 1 & 2 allowing the operator to run a wide range of attachments, backfill blade and a tilt-up cab for greater serviceability.
