Yanmar's backhoe loader

Yanmar introduces its new model CBL40 compact backhoe loader into the fast growing backhow/loader market for delivery in November.

The unit is designed with a heavy-duty frame intended for professional customers. The backhoe boom, arm, and loader arm are reinforced for durability and reliable operation.

The CBL40 is powered by a three-cylinder, 37,2-hp turbocharged diesel engine that is Tier II compliant. A hydromechanical transmission makes optimum use of the engine power. The hydraulic system is the same as that used in Yanmar excavators, giving the backhoe smooth and precise control.

Backhoe digging force is 25,8 kN (5800 lb) at the bucket and 16 kN (3600 lb) at the arm. Digging depth is 3 m (10') with a backhoe reach of 4 m (13'2"). Loader lifting capacity is 1343 kg (2960 lbs) with a breakout force of 19,5 kN (4375 lbs). Loader lift height is 2,9 m (9,5 ft). The loader bucket is self-leveling and equipped with a standard quick coupler.

Operators have a reversible swivel seat for easy access to all controls without having to stand up to make adjustments. A four-post ROPS/FOPS canopy is standard.
