Posi-Track RT-30 track loader

8599 ASV, a joint venture between 8600 Manitex International and 1222 Terex, is showing its range of compact track and skid steer loaders for the construction and forestry markets at CONEXPO-CON/AGG. The machines feature the patented Posi-Track undercarriage technology that provides exceptional traction on soft, wet, slippery, rough or hilly terrain, claims the company.

Smallest in the range is the Posi-Track RT-30 track loader, featuring efficient hydraulics and cooling systems and low ground pressure. Weighing just 3,600lb and only 48 inches wide, the RT-30 has an 8.4-foot lift height. Its compact size and 10 inches of ground clearance minimise risk of property damage or damage to the machine. The performance and design make the machine a more productive alternative to walk-behind and sit-on mini skid steer loaders, claims the company.

The RT-75 HD is a heavy-duty customisation of the company's standard RT-75 compact track loader. Targeted at forestry applications, the durability upgrade features include metal guarding against brush and debris around key areas - such as lights, the AC condenser and rear screen. The machine blows mulching debris out of the engine compartment screens with a hydraulically-driven, auto-reversing cooling fan. A full rear brush guard is also available as a factory-installed option. The machine works with standard attachments.

Including mulching heads, brush cutters, backhoes, buckets, snow blades and pallet forks.

    Doosan is aiming its versatile DX235LCR versatile short tailswing excavator squarely at the growing market for reduced radius machines. However despite its compact size, the machine features a long undercarriage to maximise its stability. The swing diameter is under 4m, 1,070mm less than that of the conventional chassis DX225LC. Power comes from a six cylinder Doosan diesel rated at 123kW and digging force over the bucket is 14.2tonnes, while use of the power boost feature increases the forces by some 5%, w
