UK’s first Yanmar C50R-5A goes to O’Malley Plant Hire
O’Malley Plant Hire Ltd has taken delivery of the very first C50R-5A tracked carrier sold in the UK. Retailed through Taylor & Braithwaite, Yanmar’s official dealer for Cumbria, Northumberland and Durham (including Tyneside and Teesside), the new model will be used for a wide range of earthmoving applications.
Added to the Yanmar portfolio in 2020, the next-generation C50R-5A can transport up to 3,800kg (standard) and 3,500kg (turning vessel). The versatile machine is 2.2m wide, 4.54m long and can turn 360 degrees on the spot in seven seconds. Featuring Yanmar’s Stage 5-compliant, 111hp 4TNV94FHT direct-injection engine, the carrier delivers 410Nm of torque at 1,700rpm.
The C50R-5A is the fifth Yanmar model that O’Malley has purchased in the past 12 months, adding to the SV26, ViO17, C30 and C12 units he specified in 2020. You can read more about the Yanmar C50R-5A tracked carrier here.
