What engine does the MCM 58X TLB use?
The MCM 58X TLB is powered by a 58kW (78hp) diesel engine, delivering high performance with reinforced hydraulics and stronger axles for demanding construction and civil-works conditions.
How much digging power does the MCM 58X TLB have?
The MCM 58X TLB delivers up to 3.5-ton breakout force with a reinforced boom and precision hydraulic control, reaching a digging depth of up to 3.4m — engineered to penetrate compacted ground and heavy clay for deep excavation and fast trenching.
Can the MCM 58X TLB handle rough terrain?
Yes. The MCM 58X TLB is built for rough terrain, with heavy-duty off-road tyres, high ground clearance and a robust chassis that maintain traction and stability across loose soil, rocky ground and uneven sites.
How heavy is the MCM 58X TLB?
The MCM 58X TLB has an operating weight of about 5 200kg. As a heavy-duty machine it needs a suitable trailer or truck for transport — heavier than MCM's compact 27X and 37X models, in line with its greater power and reach.
What attachments are available for the MCM 58X TLB?
The MCM 58X TLB has a hydraulic quick hitch for fast, in-cab attachment changes and accepts a range of front and rear tools — buckets, concrete mixers and specialty attachments — with a choice of rear bucket sizes. An attachments brochure is available to download.
What is the MCM 58X TLB used for?
The MCM 58X TLB is used for high-demand construction, civil works, deep trenching, material handling and agricultural projects. Its 78hp engine and 3.5-ton breakout force suit heavy-duty work where the compact models would be under-powered.
Is the MCM 58X TLB suitable for farm use?
Yes. The MCM 58X TLB suits heavier farm earthworks — deep trenching, land clearing, loading and infrastructure work — where farmers need more digging depth and lifting strength than a compact mini TLB provides.
Is the MCM 58X a heavy-duty TLB?
Yes. The MCM 58X is the heavy-duty model in MCM's X-range and the upgraded successor to the 37X, with more horsepower, enhanced hydraulic strength and deeper digging capability for high-demand sites.
How does the MCM 58X compare to the 37X and 27X?
The 27X is the entry-level mini TLB (1 000kg lift), the 37X is the compact mid-range model (1 500kg, 49hp), and the 58X steps up to 78hp with reinforced hydraulics, stronger axles and greater breakout force for heavy-duty work. Your branch can match a model to your jobs.
