The new FAE RCU120 is a compact, remote-controlled tracked carrier designed to excel in challenging, hard-to-reach areas or steep terrains where operator safety is paramount.
With extendable tracks and a dual hydraulic system, it ensures high productivity and adaptability in rugged environments, including hilly areas, wooded locations and worksites near railroads, power lines and pipelines.
Equipped with a 120-horsepower Kohler electronic fuel injection engine, the RCU120 is both fuel-efficient and compliant with stringent emission standards, making it a powerful and eco-friendly solution.
Built for durability, the RCU120 features a heavy-duty undercarriage with independent rollers, an automatic tensioning system and high-profile rubber tracks that enable it to handle even the most challenging terrain, with slope capabilities up to 55 degrees.
It also offers a steel track option for enhanced traction on particularly difficult surfaces. The carrier’s dual hydrostatic transmission and advanced electronic control system make it easy to manage both traction and attachments simultaneously, ensuring reliable, high-performance operation across a range of applications.
The RCU120 also incorporates advanced technology to streamline user experience and boost efficiency. Operators can control the machine with a wireless remote featuring a 4.3-inch display and ergonomic design, while FAE’s exclusive Sonic technology, available with its forestry mulcher attachment, optimizes performance for a productivity boost of up to 30%.
Compatible with FAE forestry mulchers, stump cutters, stone crushers, road millers and other third-party attachments, the RCU120 is versatile enough to tackle a wide range of heavy-duty tasks.
Additionally, users can monitor diagnostics, maintenance alerts and operating data through the FAE app, making the RCU120 a technologically advanced tool for rugged remote work environments.
