TB388 Backhoe Loader | Dual-Purpose Front Loading & Rear Digging Machine
The TB388 is a mid-size 4WD backhoe loader built for contractors who need one machine that can load, dig, and trench without switching equipment. At the front, its 1m³ bucket handles material loading, site clearing and stockpiling; at the rear, a 0.3m³ backhoe bucket digs to a maximum depth of 4085mm, making it suitable for pipeline laying, foundation trenching, drainage work and general utility excavation. Powered by a Yuchai YC4A105Z-T20 engine rated at 75KW, the TB388 delivers an overall operating weight of 8200kg with a breakout force of 47kN and a max traction force of 60kN, giving it enough muscle for compact municipal, road maintenance and small-to-medium construction projects. The 2-forward/2-reverse transmission reaches a top speed of 24km/h for efficient on-site repositioning, while the single-stage three-element torque converter and wheel-hub final reducer are built for durability under continuous daily use. With a 180° backhoe swing angle and a tight 6581mm turning radius, operators can work confidently in confined job sites such as urban roadways, residential developments and rural infrastructure projects. As a true 2-in-1 machine, the TB388 reduces the need for separate loader and excavator equipment, cutting transport costs and improving utilization on jobs where both loading and digging tasks are required. Taijin Machinery offers this backhoe loader with factory-direct pricing, customizable attachments and full after-sales technical support for international buyers.
