New Bobcat Mini-Excavators and
Telehandler on show

New Bobcat Mini-Excavators and Telehandler to be shown at SAIE 2006.

Among the new products to be shown by Bobcat for the first time at SAIE 2006 in Bologna, Italy will be two completely new mini-excavators, the 329 and 335 models Bobcat will also be showing the new T35100 telehandler and the new HB1180 breaker for the first time at SAIE

These machines and attachments will form part of a comprehensive display of Bobcat compact equipment that will also include new skid-steers and new compact tracked loaders.

Designed for operator comfort and easy operation, the 329 has an operating weight with cab of 3339 kg.

The 329 is based around a compact package with a width of 1540 mm, height of 2358 mm and an overall length in the travel position of 4880 mm.

Powered by a 20.6 kW (27.6 HP) Kubota D1703 diesel engine operating at 2400 rpm, the 329 provides a breakout force over the bucket cylinder of 3064 daN and a breakout force over the dipperstick cylinder of 1716 daN.

Complementing the maximum digging depth of 3102 mm, the 329 mini-excavator offers a maximum dump height of 3184 mm and a maximum reach at ground level of 4874 mm.

The boom on the 329 is able to swing through 90o to the left and 50o to the right.

The dozer blade has a width of 1540 mm.

Like the 329, the 335 excavator is a totally new addition to the Bobcat range, this time in the 4 to 5 tonne class, combining exceptional performance with the unmatched operational reliability that is the hallmark of Bobcat excavators.

The new 4.2 tonne 335 mini-excavator offers optimum weight distribution, providing the best stability for lifting work as well as general excavation, digging for foundations, demolition work and other applications in all types of working conditions.

With an operating weight with canopy of 4152 kg (4271 kg with cab), the 335 excavator slots in between the 331/334 (3 to 4 tonne) and 337/341 (5-6 tonne) models in the Bobcat range of mini-excavators.

The new 10-metre T35100 telehandler fills the gap between the existing Bobcat T3571 and T35120 telehandler models, with maximum lifting heights of 7.1 and 12.0 m respectively.

Like the 12-metre T35120 telehandler model, the T35100 telehandler is available in three versions: the first with no self-levelling and no stabilisers, the second featuring just the self-levelling system and the third version incorporating both stabilisers and self-levelling.

The T35100 telehandler incorporates many new improvements that it shares with the rest of the Bobcat telehandler range.

The enhancements include new Dana axles and integrated front axle levelling system.

In addition, the cab and engine compartment have been redesigned for improved visibility from the cab, better engine basket accessibility, more efficient exhaust and piping systems and reduced noise level.

The new Bobcat HB1180 hydraulic breaker offers an impact energy of 975 J.

It is approved for use on large frame Bobcat skid-steers (models S220 through S300), the largest compact tracked loaders (models T250 through T300), the A300 all-wheel steer loader and the company's 337, 341 and 435 mini-excavators.

The new HB1180 is part of the Bobcat family of 80 Series hydraulic breakers, designed to meet customer requirements for improved performance, efficiency and reliability, while maintaining familiar Bobcat advantages, such as ease of mounting, versatility and maximum productivity.

Like the rest of the 80 Series range of breakers, the HB1180 is intended for concrete and general demolition work.

It features a new internal design with fewer moving parts, reducing overall service time. Request a free brochure from Bobcat ...
