Overview

Three-Pump Hydraulic System for Fast Cycle Times and Fuel Efficiency

Three-pump hydraulic system
Three-pump hydraulic system
Overview

Pumps 1 and 2 combined control the boom and arm functions.  Pump 3 is dedicated to swing.  The result is fast cycle times and increased productivity.

Take digging forces to new levels with power boost when you need it.  This machine is a well-balanced, smooth operating machine in a reduced tailswing configuration.

Benefits
  • Use power boost with the push of a button to get through tough material 
  • Pilot controlled hydraulics provide smooth function and feel for operators
  • Maneuverable reduced tailswing eases the risk of damage to surroundings or the machine

No Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), No Problem

Final Tier 4 (FT4)/ EU Stage IV aftertreatment without the use of DPF
Final Tier 4 (FT4)/ EU Stage IV aftertreatment without the use of DPF
Overview

Zero ash-service intervals.  Zero regenerations.  Extremely efficient combustion allows Isuzu® engines to burn particulate matter in cylinder during combustion. Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) is injected into the exhaust stream and through Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), emissions standards are achieved.

Benefits
  • Proven, integrated, simple engine meets EPA Final Tier 4 (FT4)/ EU Stage IV standards
  • Ground level DEF fill

Work Confidently via Optional Cameras and Lighting

Right, rear, and left cameras with additional LED surround lighting
Right, rear, and left cameras with additional LED surround lighting
Overview

Optional Right Rear and Left Camera system with additional light-emitting diode (LED) surround lighting work together to provide the operator enhanced 270 degree visibility around the machine.  All integrated into the main monitor.

Benefits
  • Work confidently with enhanced visibility even in low light conditions
  • Powerful LEDs cast a pool of light surrounding 270 degrees of the sides and rear of the machine.  Cameras display surroundings to the operator in the main monitor
  • LED front work lights and rear camera are still standard equipment

Standard Auxiliary Hydraulics

Auxiliary hydraulic lines
Auxiliary hydraulic lines
Overview

Factory installed auxiliary hydraulic lines enable your excavator to run a number of attachments and increase the versatility of your machine, without the need for additional machines or operators.

Benefits
  • Standard auxiliary proportional control in the right pilot control lever
  • Toggle between attachments and adjust flow and pressure based on attachment requirements right in the monitor
