New Standard Features on Altec DB37 Digger Derrick
Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) July 15, 2013 -- Altec Industries, Inc., has announced the addition of two new standard features to its DB37 backyard digger derrick. The DB37 will now come standard with dedicated feeder tubes for the hydraulic digger, as well as hydraulic tilting pole guides. These features will become standard on all orders effective July 15, 2013.
The feeder tubes provide a dedicated line to the digger and pole guides, so the hoses do not need to be disconnected when the digger is not in use. The hydraulic tilting pole guides are already standard on all other Altec derricks and provide great value to Altec’s customers.
The DB37 is a digger derrick mounted on a track carrier for easy access to small backyard jobs. It is designed with the same safety and control features as other Altec derricks and has an extensive list of standard features. When fully equipped with digger and pole guide, the DB37 has a capacity of 3,800 pounds and a pole setting sheave height of 36.7 ft., which easily sets 50’ class 1 poles. The tracks are retractable, making it easy to maneuver through a 36” gate or small backyard space. The DB37 is rated to drive on slopes of up to 10 degrees side-to-side and 15 degrees front-to-back.
Altec Industries, Inc., is dedicated to continuous improvement of its products and services. These additional standard features will bring value and ease of use to Altec customers.
