Redesigned cab takes operator comfort to new heights
Designed for applications ranging from processing municipal solid waste to sorting C&D, to loading and unloading scrap, the purpose-built Terex Fuchs MHL350 D material handler delivers a standard maximum reach of 16 m (52 feet) with an operating weight of up to 35.5-t (78,226 pounds.)
These machines now feature a repositioned operator’s console which provides additional leg room, as well as enhanced visibility, and an exclusive multi-function button that delivers quick and efficient navigation through a high resolution colour display monitor. Similar to a computer mouse, the multi-function button allows the operator to easily transition through different functions, display machine operating data and activate or deactivate functions and equipment. The large console affords easy viewing of critical operating data, while the push-button control panel keypad with LED indicators enables quick activation/deactivation of machine functions. For servicing ease, the panel displays inputs/outputs for handler components and offers diagnostic tools for troubleshooting.
Ergonomic dual joystick controls are configured specifically for material handling operations, and fingertip-control buttons are conveniently grouped on both left- and right-hand joysticks. The left controls horn, turn signal, magnet and slewing brake functions, while the right incorporates grapple slewing and pressure boost functions into the joystick. Increasing machine flexibility, the right-hand joystick can be expanded to control optional functions, such as a clean-up blade.
The Terex Fuchs “D” Series features a wide undercarriage, large outriggers, sturdy stabilizer beams for optimized lifting capacities, a double row slewing ring, inverted mounting of boom cylinders, and solid anti-corrosive hydraulic piping mounted on the boom and stick, which reduces the potential for wear and tear and hydraulic hose damage.
