HYDRO-SCOPIC TELESCOPING BOOM EXCAVATOR
PRECISION-MACHINED
ONE MACHINE DOES
THE ONE EXCAVATOR TO HAVE
Consider its many features and uses. You’ll agree that Hydro-
Scopic is the most versatile type of excavator and over a
thousand satisfied users will confirm that Hydro-Scopic heads
the list for reliable productivity.
GEAR-DRIVE TURNTABLE
THE WORK OF MANY
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.
You’ll get more hard work from one Hydro-Scopic than from
any other machine in your fleet because a wide variety of easily
changed attachments allow an amazing range of construction
and maintenance tasks. Beyond its use as a precision
excavator, Hydro-Scopic can stand in for backhoes, trenchers,
graders and loaders. It can even be used for lifting objects of
three tons and more.
FOR MINIMUM TRANSIT TIME
For most construction and maintenance projects, the 6 x 4
Hydro-Scopics have the traction you’ll need to get to the
jobsite. Or, choose the sure-footed 6 x 6 version to venture
even further off-road. No matter which truck-mounted unit you
select, you’ll get the convenience of unlimited highway
mobility, plus the time and cost savings of eliminating an extra
truck needed to transport most other types of excavators.
EXCLUSIVE WRIST-ACTION BUCKET
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.
SPEED AND COORDINATION
GET DIGGING JOBS DONE FAST
Only when you’ve seen Hydro-Scopic operate can you fully
appreciate how its rapid, versatile actions pay big dividends in
total yards moved per hour.
RUGGED, PRECISION BOOM
Hydro-Scopic’s 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. Boom sections are continuously
welded for strength and telescope on adjustable, heavy-duty
rollers with aluminum-bronze bushings. Due to the square
cross section with rollers at each corner, digging loads are
always supported by at least two rollers no matter what the
bucket angle.
FULL-FEATURED
Imagine the productivity of an excavator that provides five
working functions: the boom hoists and telescopes, the
excavator swings and the bucket tilts and curls. All these
operations can occur simultaneously, even while the carrier is
in motion, under full control from the excavator cab.
HYDRAULIC REMOTE DRIVE
At the jobsite, the upperstructure engine powers the carrier
using a hydraulic motor attached to the carrier’s transmission.
From the upperstructure, the operator can control carrier
speed, direction and braking.
New operators will quickly master these rapid, coordinated
movements while experienced hands exploit Hydro-Scopic’s
extreme flexibility to make quick work of production digging
and loading.
EXTRA HEAVY-DUTY
BADGER CARRIERS
RETRACTING RAILROAD
Truck-mounted Hydro-Scopics are built on a heavily reinforced,
wide-flange ‘I’ beam frame designed specifically for these
excavators. Cross members are integrally welded and distribute
working loads equally. The swing-bearing mounting structure
is welded integrally to the frame adding to its strength.
GUIDE WHEELS
UNIQUE ABILITIES NO OTHER
With its optional railroad guide wheels, Hydro-Scopic is an
excellent tool for maintaining a railroad right-of-way and it
gains this added use with no loss of flexibility to perform other
tasks. The guide-wheel mechanism is hydraulically operated
and is welded securely to a special, heavy-duty truck frame.
TYPE OF EXCAVATOR CAN MATCH
More than handling the production work that other excavators
can, however, Hydro-Scopic handles precision grading and
finishing. And, Hydro-Scopic typically completes an entire task
with no need for final shoveling by hand.
TROUBLE-FREE FLUID
POWER SYSTEM
WORKS EASILY
Other machines can’t match Hydro-Scopic’s abilities to work in
tight spaces and around obstructions. Culverts, posts and
powerlines pose little problem for Hydro-Scopic. With its
precise controls and sensitive feel, Hydro-Scopic even works
with great accuracy under water to clear or enlarge running
ditches or to dig in flooded excavation sites.
The sealed reservoir has a built-in filter and a visual sight glass.
An oil filter condition light is provided in the cab. All cylinders
have precision-honed barrels and chrome-plated rods and use
bolt-on heads for simplified maintenance. Relief and cushion
valves are provided throughout the hydraulic system.
IN CONFINED AREAS
With the boom fully lowered, Hydro-Scopic works to within a
few feet of the carrier. And, with its shorter tail swing, Hydro-
Scopic works in areas where other excavators can’t. When
used for ditching, Hydro-Scopic will let traffic flow, even on
narrow roads.

FIRST CLASS
CONSTRUCTION.
The Hydro-Scopics are quality built. T-1 steel is used
in areas of stress, continuous welds, proven
components and especially precision assembly.
Instead of shimming our gear-drive turntable, we
machine the surfaces to very fine tolerances. We
precision align-bore all of the boom pivot and hoist
cylinder pins. Numbers and charts don’t show these
differences, but you’ll see them with more years of
trouble-free operation.
