  • Proven power – robust Cat C18 diesel engine for reliable heavy-duty performance
  • No AdBlue required – Tier 4 Final / Stage V emissions standard: low maintenance and hassle-free operation
  • Smart & efficient operation – intelligent assistance systems ensure precision, speed and operator comfort
  • Maximum performance – heavy-duty boom designed for dynamic, highload operations
  • Extended runtime – large 1,250-liter diesel tank allowing up to two shifts without refueling interruptions
  • Strong hydraulics – high-pressure output for the most demanding attachments
  • Compact, maneuverable and agile – surprisingly compact for its size: ideal for confined job sites
     

From practice, for practice

Our models 86 and 96 are extremely robust special foundation engineering equipment, designed for dynamic soil compaction. Operation gets easy with our Bauer Dynamic Compaction (BDC) and intelligent assistance functions:

  • Rope tightening system – fast closure after impact keeps the rope stable
  • Active rope assistant – Automatically corrects rope jump and prevents mis-spooling
  • Winch control – Immediate lifting after impact keeps tension and shortens the cycle time
  • Rope weights – Newly designed rope weights ensure tightness of the ropes 

 

Maximum level of control comfort with the Smart Grab Control (SGC)

  • Efficient grab filling
  • Controlled grab turning
  • Quick grab emptying by button
  • Timesaving grab lowering speed boost
  • Existing boulder recognition
  • Stop-end loosening assistant
