The BL-570 compact backhoe loader from Ingersoll Rand Company Limited is ideal for utility installation, landscaping, and rental applications, as well as general construction and repair work.

The BL-570 uses a backhoe workgroup with a maximum digging depth of 12 ft. (3.7 m). The loader has a rated operating capacity of 3,406 lb. (1,545 kg) and a breakout force of 9,370 lb. (4,250 kg).

The BL-570 is equipped with the standard Bob-Tach attachment mounting system for the loader and the X-Change system for the backhoe.

Both the loader and the backhoe are equipped with standard auxiliary hydraulics with two-way flow, which accommodate a variety of attachments, including brooms, breakers, augers and compactors.

Inertia-welded cylinders are standard on the BL-570 and provide strong lifting strength and an extended service life.

Hydrostatic, four-wheel drive and all-wheel steering provide a tight turning radius.

The Ingersoll Rand BL-570 backhoe loader also has a large, shock-mounted operator platform, or optional enclosed cab. The cab design reduces noise and vibration and is equipped with a rotating suspension seat, and ergonomic operator controls.
