Robot Welded Undercarriage
The MH8500 inherited the backbone of its predecessors; an over 300 pound all-steel undercarriage frame, robotically welded in our custom fixture. Exemplifying not only good design, strength, efficiency and consistency, but this also creates a very low center of gravity when it comes to hilly terrain and steep slopes!
Thoughtfully Engineered Upper Frame
The upper frame isn’t just any regular old tractor frame by any means. It’s a rugged, all-steel, almost 200 lb., meticulously robot welded, 13 gallon hydraulic tank, engine mounting area, rear draw-bar and provides mounting points for the loader, backhoe and other hard working attachments!
Heavy-Duty Track System
with Time Tested TCP™ Technology
The technology behind TCP (Tandem Chain Path) is the matched AR200 pre-hardened sprockets of the rear drive and front idler sprockets. Simultaneously engaging both track chains provides redundancy in case of debris interference and the effectiveness of a sprocket width seven times greater. 10 heavy-duty guide rollers (5 per side) cut from 5/8” thick solid steel, encase the heavy-duty CA551X track chain and precisely direct the chain into the drive and idler sprockets. Center roller axles are easily accessed by removing one bolt!
