2025 Takeuchi Excavators TB257FR
The newest excavator in the FR series, the TB257FR features a side-to-side (STS) offset boom coupled with the tight tail swing for unmatched visibility to the work equipment and enables it to rotate fully with very little overhang. With an operating weight of 12,930 lb, a bucket breakout force of 10,431 lb and multiple hydraulic auxiliary circuits makes the TB257FR an outstanding attachment platform and perfect for limited space job sites. Its low center of gravity and optimized counterweight placement creates an extremely stable platform with lifting capabilities similar to that of a conventional machine.
Features may include:
Full Rotation Design- Unique STS boom and short tail swing design combine to make the FR series excavators an outstanding platform for work in urban areas, road and bridge construction, and other applications with limited space.
 
- Rear hood opens high overhead, and the right side cover swings open providing exceptional access to inspection and maintenance points.
 
- Tilting the cabin forward will enable you to access the control valve, slew motor, and engine.
