Yanmar says its new carriers offer high output

According to 7139 Yanmar Construction Equipment Europe, the firm’s redesigned tracked carriers offer good gradeability even in tough working conditions.

The carrier models are powered by Yanmar engines that the firm says deliver good fuel consumption and low emissions, as well as high output when required. Other features are said to include high performance and robust construction.
