2017 Manitex 470TM

Drive 60 mph to a freeway job site or shift into 4x4 mode to reach off-road locations. No matter which truck-mounted unit you select, youll save time by cutting out the need for extra truck to provide transport.

With the boom fully lowered, the 470TM works to within a few feet of the carrier. And, with its shorter tail swing, the 470TM works in areas where other excavators cant. When used for ditching, the 470TM Telescoping Boom Excavator will let traffic flow, even on narrow roads.

The 470TMs exclusive rectangular, fast-cycling boom holds accurate grade extended or retracted. Since the boom itself never pivots, maximum boom strength is maintained regardless of the bucket angle.

At the jobsite, the upperstructure engine powers the carrier using a hydraulic motor attached to the carriers transmission. From the upperstructure, the operator can control carrier speed, direction and braking.

Our exclusive boom-tip hydraulic swivel holds its angle firmly for grading or contouring. It provides 180 of bucket tilt - 90 each way from horizontal -and is fully sealed against dirt and corrosion.

A hydraulic motor provides 360 of continuous rotation on a ball-bearing turntable. For long life and smooth operation, the mating surfaces are precision machined to very fine tolerances using a computer-controlled boring mill.
