|
Joystick
The single joystick control with rocker switch is easier to operate and has multi-function capability. |
|
 | | Ease of Operation
Ease of operation was paramount in the design of the new TH255. All controls, including auxiliary hydraulics, are fully proportional and controlled directly from the joystick. The multi-function proportional joystick allows even the inexperienced operator to quickly become proficient in operation. |
|
 | | Performance
The TH255 with its compact dimensions, three steering mode options and 126 inch turning radius provides the operator with excellent mobility and maneuverability throughout busy job sites. |
|
Lift Height
The TH255 can effectively place bricks and materials to a maximum height of 5.6 m (18 ft 4 in). |
|
Reach
Job site obstacles present challenges demanding a machine to place loads at greater distances - the TH255 delivers. |
|
Maneuverability
The TH3255 offers excellent maneuverability, due to its tight turning circle and its three different steering modes.
|
|
 | | Steering Modes
The TH255 offers three steering modes (two wheel, crab and circle steer) and full-time four-wheel drive for non-slip, steady navigation to allow an operator to more easily position the machine. |
|
 | | Power Train
The TH255 features a Cat turbo-charged engine, the C4.4 DIT is certified to meet Tier 3 emission regulations, and the machine's hydrostatic transmission allows automotive-style driving with no shifting required. These components, along with its durable planetary axles with fulltime 4-wheel drive, ensure this machine has been designed and built to meet the requirements of your tough telehandler applications. |
|
 | | Versatility
The TH255 is an extremely versatile machine that meets the needs of construction, landscape and agriculture applications. With its universal skid steer coupler and optional telehandler-style hydraulic quick coupler, an extensive range of work tools is available for you to simply and efficiently get the job done. |
|
Coupler System
For added versatility, choose either an Alliance coupler or a universal skid steer loader (SSL) coupling system that's compatible with many Cat skid steer work tools. When choosing the Alliance coupler system, a hydraulic Alliance Quick Coupler is available to allow the operator to quickly change non-hydraulic work tools without leaving the cab. |
|
Machine Configurations
There are various machine configurations available matched to different applications and operating environments. |
|
Agriculture MAs
The TH330B is one of the smallest and compact machines of the B-Series models. The compact size and great maneuverability along with the 'Z' bar linkage coupler makes it ideal for work with a bucket or in various agricultural applications. Caterpillar offers an agriculture package option that includes features with an agricultural focus such as reversing fan and additional chaff guards.
Another agriculturally derived option is a 50 L (13.2 gal) auxiliary fuel tank offering increased range. |
|
Cost of Ownership
The TH255 has extended service intervals and the reduction in service parts gives Cat Telehandlers some of the lowest operating costs in the industry. |
|
Ease of Access
Cost of ownership starts with ease of service. All Cat Telehandler service points are readily accessible and major components are easy to reach at ground level due to overall machine design. |
|
Daily Maintenance
Routine daily maintenance is now reduced to checking fluid levels and a walkaround inspection.
An easily accessible side-mounted engine makes for smoother serviceability. |
|
Service Intervals
Engine oil, filter changes and routine lubrication are now only required every 500 hours. |
|
 | | Serviceability
Routine daily maintenance is reduced to checking fluid levels and a walk-around inspection. The TH255 service access points are conveniently located under the engine cover and the fuel fill is located on the cab side with a lockable cover. All of this designed into the new TH255 so you can make the most of your day. |
