At the A8 MACHINES OF RUSSIA exhibition in Yekaterinburg, the Elabuga Automobile Plant presented two models of all-wheel drive excavator-loaders ELAZ-BL 888 and 880.
Version 880, the most compact in the line, is equipped with 20-inch front wheels and 28-inch rear wheels. The power transmission is carried out by a YaMZ-534 engine with a power of 100 horsepower, or alternatively an MMZ D-245, developing 107 hp. The tractor is equipped with a mechanical or automatic gearbox, as well as Carraro axles. The hydraulic system is manufactured in Turkey.
The 880 machine is controlled by levers, but it is planned to introduce joysticks in the near future, similar to the 888 model. The price of this tractor is about 9 million rubles, but taking into account the subsidy from the Ministry of Industry and Trade, it can be purchased for 5.5 million.
The uniqueness of the older model lies in the presence of rotating rear wheels. The machine is capable of moving "track in track", with the front axle directed to the left and the rear axle to the right, which significantly reduces the turning radius. In addition, the machine can perform a "crab walk" – simultaneous turning of the front and rear wheels in one direction. This is especially convenient when working along walls or when clearing snow, allowing the machine to replace a grader with a swivel blade.
The cost of the older model is approximately 12 million rubles. Both models are included in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, which allows dealers to supply equipment under 44-FZ and 223-FZ. ELAZ also has a leasing program from "DOM.RF" with a maximum appreciation of 10%.
Both machines are multifunctional, they are equipped with jaw buckets that can be used as a crane, grapple, or quickly replaced with forks. A hydraulic line is provided for connecting additional equipment, allowing the use of a hydraulic hammer, hydraulic drill or auger.
