Speeding attachment changes - M-Quick from Martin

Austrian attachment supplier Josef Martin GmbH has introduced a new M-Quick version of its Martin hydraulic quick coupling system that allows even attachments such as grabs and screening buckets to be coupled easily, quickly and automatically without the operator leaving the cab.

Attachments can be changed at the push of a button, says the company, and the unit comes with a fully automatic protective cover for the hydraulic clutch system, which prevents dirt contamination. Currently, M-Quick units are available for excavators weighing from 8 to 26 tonnes, with further options for tilt rotators.
