Altec Announces the Release of DT105

Altec is pleased to announce the release of the DT105.

The DT105 is the largest derrick in the DT Series, boasting a sheave height of 105 feet. The DT105 can be used for a wide variety of applications, but is an ideal unit for transmission maintenance and construction.

Standard features of the DT105:

At Altec, we are dedicated to continuous improvement of products and services. These standard features will bring value and ease of use to Altec customers.

Front Bumper Controls: The control station at the front bumper reduces slip/trip/fall exposure by allowing the operator to unstow and stow the load line, extend and retract the boom and manipulate the pole guides to get the derrick ready to operate or rack-up the unit before roading.

Opti-View Riding Seat: The Opti-View riding seat provides clear line of sight for the operator and affords them easy ingress/egress. Electric over hydraulic controls are actuated by two joysticks and foot pedals on the left for extending and/or retracting the intermediate and upper booms.

LML Riding Seat Display: The DT105 is the only digger derrick that comes standard with the Altec Load Moment Limiter (LML) Hirschmann display. This system allows the operator to set audible alarms and soft-stop kick-outs for area protection, set pressure limits for both dig and clean on the auger to prevent damage based on configuration, and provides real-time information to the operator.

The DT105 will be available for purchase January 2016. Please contact an Altec representative online for more information or give us a call at 1-800-958-2555 for new equipment sales.
