Highway-speed mobilityDrive 60 mph to a freeway job site or shift into 4x4 mode to reach off-road locations. No matter which truck-mounted unit you select, you'll save time by cutting out the need for extra truck to provide transport.Flexibility in confined areasWith the boom fully lowered, the 470TM works to within a few feet of the carrier. And, with its shorter tail swing, the 470TM works in areas where other excavators can't. When used for ditching, the 470TM Telescoping Boom Excavator will let traffic flow, even on narrow roads.Rugged precision boomThe 470TM's exclusive rectangular, fast-cycling boom holds accurate grade extended or retracted. Since the boom itself never pivots, maximum boom strength is maintained regardless of the bucket angle. Full-featured hydraulic remote driveAt the jobsite, the upperstructure engine powers the carrier using a hydraulic motor attached to the carrier's transmission. From the upperstructure, the operator can control carrier speed, direction and braking.Exclusive wrist-action bucket Our exclusive boom-tip hydraulic swivel holds its angle firmly for grading or contouring. It provides 180° of bucket tilt - 90° each way from horizontal - and is fully sealed against dirt and corrosion.Precision-machined gear-drive turntableA hydraulic motor provides 360° of continuous rotation on a ball-bearing turntable. For long life and smooth operation, the mating surfaces are precision machined to very fine tolerances using a computer-controlled boring mill.Extra heavy-duty Badger carriersTruck-mounted 470TMs are built on a 42 in. wide reinforced, form plate, trapezoidal section box frame designed specifically for these excavators. Cross members are integrally welded and distribute working loads equally. The swing-bearing mounting structure is welded integrally to the frame adding to its strength.Trouble-free fluid power systemThe sealed reservoir has a built-in filter and a visual sight glass. An oil filter condition light is provided in the cab. All cylinders have precision-honed barrels and chrome-plated rods and use bolt-on heads for simplified maintenance.
