NEW Holland has enhanced its skid steer and compact track loader line-ups with the launch of its C234 compact track loader.
The new C234 features a 67kW (90hp) engine, radial lift geometry, 45cm tracks to provide low ground pressure of 4.4psi, and one of the widest cabs in the industry.
New Holland construction equipment marketing specialist Bradley Wenger said the C234 was a go-to in-ground pool digging machine, a rental yard ‘must-have,’ and the ultimate machine for stump grinding, rock saws, and cold planers.
“The new C234 is ready for your toughest job sites; it comes packed with a ton of power and is built heavy-duty all around,” Mr Wenger said.
C234 features include a low-profile undercarriage design, which Mr Wenger said had been proven to hold up under intense testing to deliver longer carrier life. The improved yoke-to-frame engagement also produced less noise, had improved track alignment and made for easier cleanout because of the increased area between the tracks.
Other features include a 1542kg rated operating capacity at 50 per cent tipping load, and bucket tip and lift breakout forces of 3946kg.
Made for heavy-duty construction, the C234 is built with heavy-duty steel rear door and hood, along with new steel front work lights with side lamps for extra visibility during night-time operation.
The new steel front work lights with side lamps are now available on all of New Holland’s skid steer and compact track loader models.
