Takeuchi Announces TL8R-2 Track Loader

By April 3, 2020 Announcements

Takeuchi Japan: Takeuchi an innovation global leader in compact equipment, launches the completely redesigned TL8R-2. The all new redesigned TL8R-2 is engineered to provide superior power, strength, and maneuverability. The radial lift loader design offers a tipping load of 2,740 kg with an operating weight of 4,165 kg.

The TL8R-2 is equipped with a 54.6 kW turbocharged engine that is EU Stage V / EPA Final Tier 4 Emission Compliant. The Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) featured on this machine minimizes emissions for clean and efficient operation.

An optional creep mode function is available on TL8R-2 models. This feature will enable operators to precisely match the forward speed of the track loader to a particular attachment without having to constantly meter the travel lever. The creep mode function is ideal for attachments that require a consistent, repeatable travel speed, such as a cold planner and trencher.

The automotive styled operators station features a 5.7” multi-informational color display with rear view camera and a sealed rocker switch bank that helps improve performance and functionality by providing the operator with a wider range of operational information. Also, standard equipment in the TL8R-2 is the low-effort pilot controls and proportional auxiliary switches to give the operator the precision needed to work more efficiently in a comfortable, fatigue-free environment.

Additionally, a pressurized cab is an available option on TL8R-2. Optional cabs are equipped with a roll-up door, A/C, heat, defrost and front wiper, and AM/FM/MP3 radio providing all day comfort to the operator.

“Takeuchi is excited to release the completely redesigned TL8R-2” said Toshiya Takeuchi, President of Takeuchi. “Takeuchi prides itself on our continuing tradition of innovation and advancing technology, and the TL8R-2 is a perfect example of that. Operators will feel more strength, performance, maneuverability, versatility, and efficiency in this machine, increasing their profits.”
