Mechanical Trimmer Kwik-Trim
Overview:
We gave the Kwik-Trim a boost with a new 47.6-horsepower turbocharged engine. This powerful, fuel-efficient engine meets tier 4 compliance, but doesn't require diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). That means you get plenty of power and efficiency without any of the hassle of using DEF. Utilizing the newly designed Takeuchi TB26... + Read More
Features
24-Inch Carbide-Tipped Saw Blade
The Kwik-Trim uses an industry-standard 24-inch carbide-tipped saw blade. It operates at 3,000 RPM, making quick work of branches.
Hose Reel Mount
The specialized design of the hose reel mount eliminates the need for external boom support during transport. This speeds the process of prepping the machine for transport.
Easy Access Winch
The 12,000-pound hydraulic winch is conveniently located at the front center of the machine. It has its own hydraulic circuit, making it ready to be operated from inside the cab whenever needed.
Maximum Stability
Despite its compact size, the Kwik-Trim provides maximum stability on difficult terrain. The Takeuchi TB260 power unit has a wide stance and low center of gravity, allowing the unit to safely access most areas.
Superior Mobility
Unlike large-scale mechanical trimmers, the Kwik-Trim doesn't require a lowboy trailer and semi truck for transport. Weighing only 14,000 pounds, it can be towed with a pickup and standard trailer. This allows crews to maneuver more easily on tight jobsites, while keeping a lower profile.
Environmentally Friendly
The Kwik-Trim produces low ground pressure, makes little noise and has a small footprint, making it more acceptable in residential areas than larger trimming equipment.
Advanced Hydraulics
Variable displacement piston pumps and custom valving provide smooth, precise hydraulic control of the boom. Other standard features include a large capacity oil cooler for maximum reliability and an easy access panel to hydraulic components, eliminating the need to tilt the cab for maintenance
Climate-Controlled Cab
The Kwik-Trim provides a safe, comfortable operating experience in the climate-controlled cab.
