Not sure if anyone is interested in this but thought I would post it. Will couple any bucket to a Case Excavator. The prices are Canadian dollars we just got this at our dealer on April 1st. You can see the video here....... https://www.yousendit.com/transfer....784175&email=0ad32cfb50775f90b2de2bdebc0e617a Maybe there is someone out there interested in this, case just put it on the site today but not much mentioned about price and no video.
http://www.millerdirect.com/miller-twinlock-II.aspx very similar to this one.
Very similar is right.....maybe they make it for Case. Just thought it was worth a post.
how come Case trackhoes don't use the same system that the backhoes use?...atleast for their mini-hoes
I've wondered that about their minis as well. Seems like all minis have a quick coupler and having a factory installed hydraulic coupler would just be adding to the versatility. I think Yanmar has hit a home run with their standard hydraulic coupler on the minis, great idea. This new coupler sounds cool with the front pin retention in the event that the operator screws up and doesn't get the rear pin locked on the first try. Very safe and effective design.
Looks like any other bucket/QC option out there. What I haven't found is a hydraulic QC option for a 9,000lbs mini. Any ideas?
The price seems high! In the video it doesn't look like a true slide lock coupler the way it locks? How tight does it clamp, a true slide lock puts a lot locking pressure between the pins and the bucket will not rattle around and wear. The safety feature is good.
The MultiFit coupler has a constant pressure (350 barr / 5000 psi) between the pins (from the bucket) and the coupler. This eliminates any rattle causing wear on the coupler.
looks like the same coupler we have on our 210 hyundai, and 210 case....both are 4 yrs old.
Miller makes them for pretty much all the manufacturers, thats why there built that way so miller only has to change the bores where they pin on the machine not for on the bucket theyre picking up when theyre producing them..
Prices are canadian Pj
