New Takeuchi TB225 2.5t Expandable Track Mini Excavator

The new Takeuchi TB225 is a market first 2.5t class machine with expandable tracks, allowing it to become the new performance leader in tow-able mini excavators.

At its narrowest, the new TB225 is 1100mm wide, this is only 100mm wider than a 1.6t mini excavator, however when the tracks are expanded out to 1500mm, similar to all other 2.5t mini excavators, it's power, balance and lifting is very similar, then consider its higher performing weight layout than a 2.5t zero swing excavator with increased rear weight, longer blade and larger boom, the TB225 can outperform 2.5t excavators with a footprint more similar to a 1.6t machine.

The TB225's dry weight of 2.4t makes it highly suitable for towing on small plant trailers, and the quick pin blade extensions make loading quicker on narrow trailer you may already own for your 1.6t excavator. Check out the Brian James BJ27 plant trailer we have on offer which suits this machine very well.

The TB225 uses the same hook up sizes as the TB23R and TB228, 35mm pin, 180mm pin center and 125mm wide. If you're upgrading your 1.6t machine we can produce an adapter hitch to use your original attachments, however due to the increased power of this machine, you should consider upgrading to larger buckets for quicker digging.

The TB225 features all steel construction, a spacious operator station, smooth hydraulic pilot joystick controls that deliver precise responsive controls and best in class engine output. The TB225 provides outstanding arm and bucket breakout force, dig depth, reach and lifting capacity for maximum productivity making it a great choice for the most demanding applications. Additional features include automatic fuel bleed system, standard auto deceleration, a large wraparound counterweight with inter-graded tie downs. The operator is protected by a ROPS / TOPS / OPG protective structure that keeps the operator safe and comfortable on any job site.
