excavators and attachments 2009

The result of extensive customerconsultation — highlighting theneed for short swing machines thatoffer productivity, ease of operationand safety equal to their“conventional” counterparts — seesthe addition of a third, larger modelto the Volvo range.

The 34.8 ton (31.6 t) VolvoECR305CL overcomes the dynamicchallenges of producing excavatorsthat can work in confined areas andstill perform well and sets a new stan-dard in the industry for not only lift-ing capacity but also stability — espe-cially important in loading applica-tions. With better weight distributionand increased swing torque, the VolvoECR305CL also offers superior swingperformance when working onslopes, according to the manufactur-er.

Whether operating in cities, layingutilities, mining duties, highway work,in addition to a multitude of other,diverse applications, the increasedsafety and maneuverability offered byshort swing excavators on congestedwork sites has seen the rapid growthof this important segment in the mar-ket.

Like the smaller machines in therange, the compact body on the VolvoECR305CL swings only fractionallyoutside its own track width — lessthan 3.1 in. (80 mm) with 31.5 in. (800mm) shoe — enabling it to workextremely close to objects (walls, roadbarriers etc.) without risk of collisionwith the rear of the machine as itswings.

Even when not working close toobstructions, the short front/rearradius has other uses — highwaywork being a prime example, wherethe machine can safely swing within atypical single road lane width, mini-mizing disruption with traffic flow.

The all-new, rounded cab on Volvo’sshort swing models, also is designed

to stay within the rear swing radius.Despite this design consideration, itremains a roomy and comfortablecab. The sliding door provides theoperator with the ability to accessand exit the cab even when it is posi-tioned close to an obstruction, suchas close to a wall. While at work, theheating and ventilation systemensures the perfect working environ-ment, regardless of weather condi-tions.

The new cab features, as on allother C-Series excavator models, alarger, brighter, color LCD monitor,providing both a built-in service dis-play and selectable hydraulic controloptions.This monitor also can be usedwith an optional, rear view camera,further increasing machine operatingsafety.

Despite its compact design, theVolvo ECR305CL is both easy to serv-ice and maintain. All check and clean-ing points are readily accessible;many of them available via a wideopening side door. The optionalCareTrack GPS system conducts a selfdiagnostic routine, alerting the opera-

tor — or the fleet manager back atthe office — should a fault be detect-ed. Enabling preventive maintenanceoperations to be carried out,CareTrack helps to optimize machineuptime and, consequently, return onthe customer’s investment, accordingto the manufacturer.

With its latest generation, Tier III,fuel-efficient, Volvo engine with V-ACT ((Volvo Advanced CombustionTechnology) developing 107 hp (143kW), the Volvo ECR305CL has thepower to perform any task thrown atit, with plenty in reserve. The bucketrange on the Volvo ECR305CL is from1.3 to 2.7 cu. yd. (1.0 to 2.1 cu m) and awide range of genuine Volvo attach-ments also is available, as are quick fitoptions to ensure speedy attachmentchanges, for maximum machine ver-satility.

Fitted with a heavier counter-weight, the Volvo ECR305CL offersadded stability, providing it with itsheavy lift capability.

The HB 7000 hydraulic breakerattachment from Atlas CopcoConstruction Tools LLC boasts a serviceweight of more than 7 tons (6.3 t), mak-ing it ideal for primary and secondaryquarry breaking, demolition, tunneling,trenching and foundation work.

Accepting a maximum hydraulic flowof 119 gpm (450 Lpm) at 2,610 psi, theHB 7000 delivers an impact rate of up to450 bpm. This offers maximum produc-tivity in extreme breaking conditions.

The HB 7000 comes standard withAutoControl, a monitoring system thatallows the breaker to adapt its frequen-cy and power output to match operat-ing conditions. It begins by firing thefirst stroke at half power to create apilot notch that will center the workingtool and prevent unnecessary slippage.It then adjusts the power output tomatch the density of the specifiedmaterial to be broken. This reducesexcess shock to both the breaker andcarrier lengthening the service life ontension bolts and retainer bars.

To further maximize efficiency, the HB7000 features the StartSelect system,which allows start-up and shut-off to beadjusted to fit job-site conditions. InAutoStop mode, the breaker will not fireuntil the operator applies down pres-sure on the demolition tool via the car-rier. AutoStop eliminates damagingblank firing by circulating the hydraulicoil internally under low pressure whendown pressure is not applied to thetool. AutoStop also is ideal for circulat-ing and warming the hydraulic systembefore breaking in cold climates.

In AutoStart mode, the StartSelectsystem works hand-in-hand withAutoControl. The breaker begins oper-ating as soon as the working tool comesin contact with the material regardlessof down pressure, but power is limitedto 50-percent until the demolition tool

can be fully seated in the breaker. Thisassures that the breaker is properlypositioned to accept full single blowenergy safely without a damagingblank fire. AutoStart mode makes thebreaker more versatile and is ideal fordemolition applications.

An energy recovery system that pre-

vents damage from piston recoil onextremely hard materials also is stan-dard on the HB 7000. The energy recov-ery system consists of a shuttle valvethat detects piston rebound and a high-pressure accumulator that stores ener-gy from piston recoil to use on succeed-ing strokes, making them faster andmore powerful. Recycling recoil energyincreases breaker efficiency andreduces pressure spikes transmittedback to the carrier.

To reduce excess vibration and noise,the HB 7000 comes equipped with theVibroSilenced damping system. Elasticelements between the percussionmechanism and guide system providefull acoustic insulation, reducing noiseby up to 18-dB(A) compared to similarsystems.

For prolonged service life, the HB7000 features DustProtector II andContiLube II. The optionalDustProtector II feature prevents dustpenetration by utilizing a reusablesleeve that contacts the working tool atthe base of the breaker. This protectsthe inner mechanism from the damag-ing effects of dust. ContiLube II is anautomatic lubrication system mounteddirectly on the breaker. Featuring acompact, self-priming pump, ContiLubeII eliminates the need to manuallygrease the breaker before each use.

The HB 7000 uses a working tool of8.27-in. (21 cm) in diameter at workinglengths up to 46-in (117 cm). Availablein three lengths for a variety of applica-tions, the HB 7000 tool options includethe moil point for multi-purpose use,the flat chisel for rock breaking anddemolition and the blunt tool for break-ing rock, concrete and oversized materi-al.

Increased Fuel Efficiency, ProductivityThese new CX B Series excavators

deliver significant increases in fuelefficiency, according to the manufac-turer. The common rail fuel injectionsystem, combined with theredesigned hydraulic system, deliversup to 7-percent better fuel efficiency.

“Improved fuel efficiency meanshuge savings for the owner of a CaseB Series excavator,” said Dave Wolf,brand marketing manager, CaseConstruction Equipment. “Not onlyare these new Case excavators deliv-ering increased fuel efficiency andhorsepower, they also are providing asubstantial increase in productivity,which results in more cubic yards ofmaterial per gallon of fuel.”

The increased hydraulic horsepow-er on these excavators results in fastercycle times and more material movedper hour.

“The CX350B and CX700B featureregenerative hydraulics on the boomand arm, as well as the bucket curl,which speeds the cycle time requiredto get a bucket of dirt,”Wolf said.

Larger-diameter hydraulic cylindersprovide increased breakout forces.

Quiet, Comfortable CabThe noise levels inside the isolation

mounted cab on the CX350B andCX700B are among the quietest in theindustry, according to the manufac-turer. The cab also features reinforcedtubular structures, which dampenvibrations.

“A quiet cab means a more com-fortable operator,”Wolf said.“And thatmeans greater productivity.”

The cab on the new models fea-tures a seat that adjusts independent-ly of the joystick controls forimproved operator comfort andergonomics. The new excavators alsofeature a memorized operator adjust-ment, which automatically adjusts tothe last settings selected by the oper-ator. An optional air seat makes theoperator even more comfortable.

The left- and right-hand consolesprovide convenient reach to key func-tions.The left-hand console features amemorized operator adjustment set-ting. When the operator needs tosilence the radio to take a phone callor instructions from outside the cab,there is a radio mute button on thejoystick.

The narrower, reinforced posts onthe corners of the cab provide moreglass and a broader view to the jobsite. The right-hand window providesclear, unobstructed viewing to thetrench. An optional see-through sky-light further enhances visibility.

Ease of Maintenance“The easier it is to perform mainte-

nance, the more likely it will getdone,” Wolf said. “And the ease ofmaintenance of these machinesresults in significantly lower owningand operating costs.”

These excavators feature a greenplug that provides an easier, cleanerand greener engine oil change. Theengine oil filter, remotely located inthe pump house, is easy to changewithout the need to go underneaththe machine. For faster, easier access,grease zerks are ganged together.Flip-open service panels provide easyaccess to virtually all key compo-nents.

The three machines can store up to10 auxiliary hydraulic flow patterns toallow the operator to quickly adaptthe machine to different attachments.This capability is important on jobsites requiring multiple attachmentsand is especially useful for the rentalmarket.

The 44,000 lb. (19,958 kg) GradallModel XL 4300 III hydraulic excavatoroffers the versatility of a tilting, tele-scoping boom as well as mobility bothon and off paved surfaces. Powered bya new Detroit Diesel Mercedes engine,the XL 4300 III delivers noticeablygreater bucket breakout and boomforces to increase productivity for highperformance jobs, according to themanufacturer.

The XL 4300 III carrier, with a newcounterweight and profile, is 9 in. (22.8cm) shorter with a tail swing that’sbeen reduced by 12 in. (30.5 cm),enabling the machine to work effi-ciently in tight quarters and on high-ways with minimal traffic obstruction.

In the operator cab are other Series IIIfeatures, including new gauges tomonitor hydraulic circuit pressures andan instrument panel switch that canshorten the training cycle. Now, opera-tors can conveniently select theGradall, Deere or SAE operating pat-terns for the new electronic joysticks,built into the armrests of the seating

module. In-cab comfort enhancementsinclude standard air conditioning, freshair ventilation, removable front win-dow, AM/FM radio, and a largeadjustable seat.

The digging depth of the XL 4300 IIIis increased to 21 ft. 3 in. (6.5 cm) whilethe boom reach at groundline isexpanded to 30 ft. 4 in. (9.2 m).

Attachments are common through-out most of the Series III models,including excavating, trenching, ditch-ing, dredging and pavement removalbuckets. Also available are a gradingblade, tree limb shear, live boom, fixedthumb grapple and boom extensionsincluding the Telestick.Due to the exca-vator’s high pressure, load-sensinghydraulics, the machine can easilymove between high production exca-vating and demolition work to fine fin-ishing, grading and landscape func-tions.

Unlike conventional excavators’boom-end rotation devices, the entireGradall boom tilts 220 degrees sothere’s no loss of power during high

production jobs. The boom’s telescop-ing action also requires little overheadclearance, allowing the XL 4300 III towork in tunnels and other locationswhere conventional booms cannotfunction. Also unlike conventionalbooms, operators can monitor the fulllength of the boom at all times, andbenefit from the constant boom forcesthroughout the entire digging cycle.

The XL 4300 III is stable with frontaxle oscillation locks.Even without low-ering the optional blade or outriggers,operators can perform high produc-tion work at the front,rear or either sideof the excavator.

The four-wheel-drive undercarriagehas rubber tires designed for mobilityon rough terrain as well as on highwayswhere they won’t damage the pavedsurface. Even while the machine ismoving, the operator can changebetween standard and creeper travelmode to efficiently position themachine. Axles are equipped withinternal wet-disc type service and park-ing brakes.

All Series III excavators have almost70 percent parts commonality, simpli-fying the task of maintaining invento-ries to complete common service func-tions.

Hitachi Introduces New Compact,Swing BoomExcavator

The Zaxis 85USB-3 excavator is acompact ultra-short from Hitachi thatis the perfect size for all kinds of jobsincluding landscaping, light residen-tial, urban renewal, and undergroundutilities

Not too big and not too small, theZX85USB-3 delivers all the power,smoothness, precision, and ease ofoperation owners and operatorsexpect from the larger Hitachi excava-tors — in an easy-to-maneuver pack-age, according to the manufacturer.The unit lets the operator focus onthe “business end” of production andworry less about what’s behind. And itreduces the potential for damage tothe surrounding area or to themachine itself. Getting closer to theaction also eliminates the need for alot of hand work.

The unit can be fitted with steelshoes or with rubber pads or rubbercrawler belts. The new shape of thebackfill blade provides better crowd-ing performance, additional machine

stability, and is easier to see by theoperator. The swing boom enablesparallel digging to walls, guard rails,and foundations, making it ideal forexcavation and utility work, accordingto the manufacturer.

Scalpel-Like Precision With LessEffort

At the heart of this new excavator isthe match of the turbo-charged Isuzu4LE2X engine and Hitachi’s own HIOSIII hydraulic system. The Isuzu InterimTier-IV-certified engine works well athigh altitudes without sacrificing per-formance. Regenerative flow on theboom, stick and bucket cylindersresult in faster down movements,extremely fine control, and multitask-ing.

Spacious, Comfortable CabThe special shape of the ZX85USB-3

cab accommodates the path of theswing boom without sacrificing com-fort or convenience. The cab also fea-

tures a deluxe suspension cloth seat,advanced multilingual LCD monitor,slide-open front glass, generous legroom, short-throw/low-effort con-trols, and tinted, transparent roof win-dow.

Lower Fuel Consumption, MoreTorque

Two engine modes can be selectedto match engine rpm to the operatingconditions and application. The E(economy) mode for light-duty workreduces fuel consumption from eightto twelve percent, by lowering enginespeed — without sacrificing produc-tivity. It also reduces noise levels.

The P (standard) mode provides abalance of power and fuel economyfor most tasks. It controls the enginespeed from slow idle to fast idle inresponse to the position of theengine speed dial.

The swing boom enables parallel digging to walls, guard rails, and foundations, making it ideal for excavation and utilitywork.


Zaxis 850LC-3 Excavates Quarries,HeavyConstruction Jobs

The ZX850LC-3, packing many of thelarger EX1200’s engineering characteris-tics, is suited for quarries, demolition, andheavy construction jobs. The pairing ofIsuzu’s Tier-III-certified 532-net-peak-hp(397 kW) AH-6WG1XYSA-03 engine withHitachi’s HIOS III hydraulic system hasincreased engine output as well as thebucket and arm digging forces.Operatorscan tailor machine performance to thejob by selecting one of three powermodes — Economy (E), Power (P), or HighPower (HP). HP ensures efficient arm roll-in during deep excavation.

Configuration OptionsWeighing 18,186 lbs. (84,152 kg), the

Zaxis 850LC-3 comes standard with a 27-ft. 7-in. (8.4 m) boom, a 14-ft. 5-in. (4.4 m)arm, a 29,321-lb. (13,300 kg) counter-weight, and 36-in. (90 cm) double grousershoes. Additional arm lengths that can beordered are 12 ft.1 in.(3.7 m) and 17 ft.9in.(5.4 m).

Also available are a 23-ft. 4-in. (7.1 m)mass-excavating boom with a 9-ft. 8-in.(2.95 m) arm and a 32-ft. 10-in. (10 m)boom. Twenty-eight in. (70 cm), 30-in. (75cm), 32-in. (80 cm), and 40-in. (102 cm)shoes are available as well.

Productivity FeaturesThe Hitachi HIOS III hydraulic system

uses arm and bucket regenerative sys-tems to boost front attachment speed. Aboom mode switch, when turned on,reduces vibration and impact shock-loadsdue to less lifting or pulling of the body,increasing comfort.

The CRES II cab sports a wider, morecomfortable seatback, more foot room,and 47-percent more glass on the right-side window compared to its predeces-sor. The cab is pressurized to keep dustout. Pedals have been reshaped for easieruse. And the cab structure has beenstrengthened to protect against greaterexternal pressures.

The large color LCD multifunctionmonitor is multilingual.The digital screenscan provide instant informational recordsfrom the on-board monitoring system.When attachments are used, instead of

climbing on the boom to make valveadjustments, the operator can make sim-ple oil-flow adjustments from the seatusing the monitor. Short-throw, low-effortlevers mean fingertip control with lessoperator fatigue.

Increased ReliabilityUndercarriage and front component

improvements have been made as well.For example, the loading capacity of theswing circle has been increased byadding more ball bearings to the swingcircle.The boss diameter of each track linkis bigger. Upper and lower rollers havebeen widened to increase contact areaswhile idlers and sprockets have beenincreased in diameter for more durability.Front component pins are larger, and thearm and boom are thicker and made fromstronger materials.

Easier MaintenanceWith the Dash-3 series, Hitachi has sim-

plified many maintenance chores.A widerservice walk makes it easier to get fromthe cab to the rear. The spacious centralpassage provides easy access to theengine.The radiator and oil cooler sit sideby side instead of in-line for easy

demounting.This makes it easier to cleanaround the radiator and oil cooler whileimproving oil cooling capacity. In additionto a pre-filter, dual main fuel filters arestandard, reducing fuel line clogging.

Service intervals for the ZX850LC-3 are500 hours for the engine oil and 4,000hours for the hydraulic oil.Hydraulic oil-fil-ter intervals have been extended from500 to 1,000 hours.

Cool on DemandThe ZX850LC-3 also has a cool-on-

demand cooling system that runs the fanat the speed required to keep the excava-tor running at peak performance.This alsoreduces noise and saves fuel. The fandirection can be reversed from the cab,enabling the operator to keep the coolingcores clean and the machine up and run-ning.

As a bonus, three years’ worth ofHitachi’s ZXLink Ultimate telematicremote machine monitoring system areincluded in the price of the machine,when purchased from an authorizedHitachi dealer.


Weighing 185,186 lbs. (84,152 kg), the Zaxis 850LC-3 comes standard with a 27-ft. 7-in.(8.4 m) boom, a 14-ft. 5-in. (4.4 m) arm, a 29,321-lb. (13,300 kg) counterweight, and 36-in.(90 cm) double grouser shoes.


Gradall XL 3100 III Excavator Delivers HighValue Versatility Package

The Gradall XL 3100 III excavator, cur-rently being introduced by GradallIndustries, shares new operation and fleetmanagement advantages with otherGradall Series III excavator models. Butwhat really sets this 40,000-lb. (18,144 kg)workhorse apart from the other excavatorsis its ability to present a cost-efficient solu-tion to many different tasks on many differ-ent kinds of jobs.

Like all Series III excavators, the XL 3100III has a shorter rear swing, allowing it towork effectively in traffic lanes, at the sideof highways and on tight job sites. A newDetroit Diesel Mercedes engine powersthe carrier — either 4 x 2 or 4 x4 — at high-way speeds to distant job sites. The sameengine also supplies power to the boomand upperstructure, reducing fuel con-sumption and engine service require-ments. Highway mobility also eliminatesthe need for lowboy trailers, and enablesfleet managers to return the machine tothe safety of equipment yards at night.

Repositioning is accomplished from theupper cab,which has a number of new fea-tures for operator comfort and efficiency.For example,one switch in the cab controlscarrier speed during repositioning. Usinganother switch, operators can selectGradall, Deere or SAE joystick patterns,shortening the learning curve for opera-tors who are new to the Gradall telescop-ing,tilting boom.

Joysticks in the armrests of the comfort-able seating module can be used to con-

trol the boom and properly positionattachments for full productivity and extraversatility. Unlike conventional excavatorsor machines with boom-end pivot attach-ments, Gradall excavators maintain fullboom forces through the entire diggingcycle and entire boom tilt.The telescopingboom action also allows the excavator toreach under bridges, signs, tree limbs andother obstructions where conventionalknuckle booms won’t fit.

The XL 3100 III is designed to deliver amaximum reach of 27 ft. 5 in. (8.4 m) atgrade;a dig depth of 19 ft.4 in. (5.9 m);anda maximum working height of 16 ft. 3 in.(5.0 m).

High pressure, load sensing hydraulicsprepare the XL 3100 III and its uniqueboom movements to handle the jobs ofmany different machines. Use the XL 3100III to excavate, demolish, load and unloadtrucks, lift and position pipe, use a grappleto clear streams and vegetation, or spreadrip-rap. Gradall excavators also are able tocut V-ditches, create slopes, spread topsoiland create a finished grade.

The advanced hydraulics system haspressure-compensated, load-sensingvalves with circuit reliefs on all circuits.Thissystem delivers the right amount ofhydraulic power to the boom, increasingcost efficiency and fuel consumption,according to the manufacturer.

Rated bucket breakout force is 17,990lbs. (111 kN). Telescoping boom crowdforce is 21,940 lbs. (109 kN).

The XL 3100 III carrier cab has extrasound-deadening material, an optional tiltsteering wheel and a 9-speed transmissionand clutch with hydraulic actuation anddouble plate. Other standard featuresinclude hub piloted disc wheels,upper cabwiper and washer, rear tow hooks and anair ride seat in the carrier.

The XL 3100 III shares commonality withother Series III Gradall excavators.Commonservice parts can simplify inventory andparts management, while the new dieselengine allows for longer periods betweenoil and filter changes,fuel filter and coolantreplacement and valve adjustments. Mostservice points can be reached at groundlevel to help assure maximum life and pro-ductivity.

Series III excavators also use commonattachments including excavating, trench-ing, ditching, pavement removal anddredging buckets. Also available are a sin-gle-tooth ripper, grading blade, tree limbshear,grapple and boom extensions.

Maintenance advantages include aninternal swing gear, planetary tilt transmis-sion that’s “lubed for life” and the elimina-tion of boom tilt rollers to avoid servicetime for roller lubrication and adjustment.

The Gradall network of authorized dis-tributors supports all Gradall excavators,supplying service advice and parts thatmeet Gradall engineering specifications.

The MOAR (Mother of all rippers) is anew concept in heavy duty ripping fromNye. These rippers are built with extrasteel plates to make them super heavy,the extra weight is additive to the carri-ers downward force, yielding enhancedpenetration and performance.

The MOAR was originally conceived inNova Scotia, Canada, for ripping shaleon a particularly tough job where blast-ing was not permitted. Conventional

rippers could only scratch the surfaceand were ineffective at penetrating thestratified rock. MOAR rippers are effec-tive in: rock, shale, sandstone, coral,asphalt and frozen ground.

Nye produces MOAR rippers for exca-vators in the 15 to 100 ton (13.6 to 91 t)range. Quick coupler and pin-grabbermodels are offered by the company.

Nye Ripper Takes on the Toughest Surfaces


Rockland Manufacturing, based inBedford, Pa., has introduced the Klac sys-tem — a mechanical quick coupler formini-excavators from 2,200 to 22,000 lbs.(998 to 9,980 kg).The Klac system reducesthe amount of time spent unhitching andhitching attachments because of its simpledesign with fewer parts that eliminates theneed to adjust, service or grease the cou-pler. The Klac system is adaptable to anymini-excavator bucket, and its rugged caststeel construction ensures long wear life.

Owners of mini-excavators historicallyhave dealt with mechanical coupler sys-tems that require safety pins, keys, nuts,cams, seals, thread mechanisms and/orwedges,among other parts.These systemscan be time-consuming to use becausethey require the operator to leave the cabfor unhitching and hitching. Often theoperator also must leave the cab afterhitching to adjust slack and/or alignmenton the attachment after it is mounted. In

addition, many mechanical coupler sys-tems add length to the angle of the buck-et, changing the working geometry of theentire machine and lowering its breakoutforce.

With the Klac system, the operatorunlocks the coupler by pulling a lever.TheKlac system then can lock a new attach-ment into place automatically, without theneed for a safety pin. The Klac system fea-tures double safety levels, using twosprings versus one. Because it follows theoriginal machine’s digging geometry,thereis no loss of breakout force.

While a hydraulic quick coupler is themost efficient coupler type in terms ofoperation, it is often expensive, with labor-intensive installation. The Klac systemoffers mini-excavator owners a mechanicalcoupler that is simple,inexpensive and effi-cient,according to the manufacturer.

For more information,call 814/623-1115or visit www.rocklandmfg.com.

The Klac system reduces the amount oftime spent unhitching and hitching attach-ments because of its simple design withfewer parts that eliminates the need toadjust, service or grease the coupler.

XL 3300 III Has On/Off Pavement Mobility,Versatility

A new on/off pavement XL 3300 III exca-vator by Gradall Industries Inc. offers newfeatures to build efficiency as well as per-formance on a wide range of jobs.

One of five Gradall Series III machinescurrently being introduced, the XL 3300 IIIweighs about 39,000 lbs. (17,690 kg). Itsfour-wheel-drive, rubber-tire undercar-riage moves easily in dirt and mud, whilealso offering mobility on pavement. Evenwithout the use of optional outriggers, the

XL 3300 III has stability comparable to aconventional crawler while working ateither end or either side, but the rubbertires will not damage pavement,accordingto the manufacturer.

A new Detroit Diesel Mercedes enginepowers the chassis as well as a Gradall tele-scoping, tilting boom.The new speed pro-duces greater simultaneous speed in deliv-ering enhanced boom forces and bucketbreakout forces.

The telescoping, tilting Gradall boommovements are commanded using newelectronic joystick controls built into theseating module. A new cab switch alsodetermines the joystick control configura-tion — Gradall, SAE or Deere — enabling

new or veteran operators to select a com-fortable pattern. Other Series III cab fea-tures include new gauges to monitorhydraulic circuit pressures and standard airconditioning as well as fresh air ventilation.

The XL 3300 III has a compact profilewith a new rear counterweight design,resulting in a rear swing of just 7 ft.6 in.(2.3cm),enabling the excavator to work in traf-fic lanes without closing the road. Diggingdepth is 18 ft. 5 in. (5.6 m) while the boom

reach at groundline is 27 ft.3 in. (8.3 m).Among the advantages to fleet man-

agers is commonality in almost all attach-ments including excavating, trenching,ditching, dredging and pavement removalbuckets. The XL 3300 III also can beequipped with a grading blade, tree limbshear, live boom, fixed thumb grapple andboom extensions including the Telestick.

The entire telescoping boom tilts attach-ments 220 degrees to the proper positionwithout losing power — an advantageover boom-end tilt attachments sold sepa-rately for conventional knuckle booms.Thetelescoping boom also delivers constantforces through the entire dig cycle,enabling the Gradall XL 3300 III to efficient-

ly handle high productivity excavation anddemolition as well as landscaping andgrading,according to the manufacturer.

The XL 3300 III, also unlike conventionalexcavators, can work in tunnels and underbridges where there’s little headroom. Tofurther help avoid contact with obstruc-tions, operators can monitor the Gradallboom position through the entire diggingcycle.

Exceptionally stable, and equipped with

front axle oscillation locks, the XL 3300 IIIcan perform demanding work from manydifferent positions. For extra mobility con-trol, the operator can change betweenstandard and creeper travel mode. Axlesare equipped with internal wet-disc typeservice and parking brakes.

All Series III excavators have almost 70percent parts commonality,simplifying thetask of maintaining parts inventories forcommon service functions. Series IIImachines have longer routine serviceintervals,and most service locations can bereached from ground level. A network ofauthorized distributors supports all Gradallexcavators, supplying service advice andgenuine Gradall parts.

Caterpillar 315D L Excavator Features MorePower,Expanded Versatility

Caterpillar’s 315D L excavator deliversfive percent more horsepower and asmuch as eight percent more lift capacitythan the 315C L, which it replaces. Higherhydraulic pressures boost performanceand efficiency, and the new 115-hp (86-kW) engine meets U.S. EPA Tier III emis-sions regulations and delivers more workper gallon of fuel, according to the manu-facturer.

A number of new features extend versa-tility.The machine leaves the factory readyfor fast, economical installation of auxiliaryhydraulic circuits,making it an ideal choicefor users who do many jobs with onemachine. The Cat tool control systemstores hydraulic flow and pressure for asmany as 10 different work tools.

The 315D L features the same spaciousand comfortable cab found on largerCaterpillar excavators. It offers a quiet andwell-ventilated place to work,and it comeswith a supportive seat, standard air condi-tioning and low-effort joystick controls. Ason the 315C L, work and power modeswitches have been replaced with an auto-mated boom and swing priority functionthat selects the proper mode based on joy-stick movement. This feature helps lessexperienced operators and veterans workmore productively,according to the manu-facturer.

A new monitor relays information in textform to improve communication betweenthe operator and the machine. Messagescan be displayed in 27 languages toaccommodate the increasingly diverseworkforce.

Quick,Powerful and Efficient The new excavator is equipped with a

Cat C4.2 engine with ACERT Technology. Itmeets worldwide emissions regulationswhile delivering performance, fuel econo-my and long life. A five percent net horse-power increase allows the use of higherhydraulic pressures for reduced cycletimes, increased breakout force andgreater lift capacity.

Auxiliary hydraulic and electrical linesare routed to the boom foot for faster,more economical installation of additionalhydraulic circuits.A boom and stick regen-eration circuit saves energy during boom-down and stick-in operations, furtherincreasing efficiency and lowering operat-ing costs.

More Jobs With One Machine For maximum versatility, the 315D L has

four stick options, including the new inter-mediate-sized 9-ft. 6-in. (2.9-m) stick thatincreases lift capacity and breakout forcefor those that equip their machines withmultiple work tools.

The excavator accommodates a fullrange of one- and two-way work tools. Anoptional pin grabber coupler allows quicktool changes from the cab. The standardCat tool control system lets the operatorpre-set hydraulic flow and pressure for asmany as 10 different work tools using thein-cab monitor.The tools can then be usedat the touch of a button.

Low Owning andOperating Costs

Many features make the315D L economical to ownand operate. An economymode reduces fuel con-sumption in light-dutyapplications, while main-taining high bucket forcesand lift capacity. Greaselubricated track offers longwear life at lower total cost.Easy-access service pointsand extended mainte-nance intervals increaseuptime and drive downoperating costs, accordingto the manufacturer.

Value-Adding Options A large selection of options makes the

315D L an even more valuable asset.AccuGrade grade control system helpsoperators at any ski11 level work faster andmore accurately.

John Deere Construction & Forestry hasintroduced two new wheeled excavators,the 190D W and the 220D W,featuring TierIII-certified engines and significant increas-es in horsepower, weight and diggingforces over their predecessors.

Both units have fuel-efficient 5.2-L dieselengines rated at 159 hp (118 kW),with the190D W weighing in at 44,974 lbs. (20,400kg) and the 220D W at 51,368 lbs. (23,300kg) when both are equipped with two-piece booms and front and rear outriggers.In addition to its heavier operating weight,the 220D W has a greater dig depth at 20 ft.8 in. (6.3 m) and more digging forces. The190D W and 220D W also are available withmono booms for long-distance work andblades for backfilling.

“Whether your job calls for the 19- or 22-metric-ton machine, you can drive fromsite to site quickly, with a maximum speedtopping 23 mph and a lot more maneuver-ability than atracked excavator,”said Mark Wall,exca-vator product mar-keting manager ofJohn Deere. “The190D W and 220D Ware highly produc-tive in diggingditches, repairingstreets and sewersor moving Jerseybarriers.”

On the 220D W,wider axles and theadditional weightprovide more stabil-ity and lift capabilityfor quickly movingJersey barriers.

Power and Control The 190D W and 220D W have Deere’s

Powerwise III engine/hydraulic manage-ment system that maximizes engine out-put and delivers smooth, predictable mul-tifunction operation while saving fuel.Onework mode makes it easy to be productivein any application.

The two-speed Powershift transmissionshifts smoothly on the go from low to high.Downshifting isn’t a problem either sincethe transmission will only shift within cer-tain travel-speed parameters — protect-ing both the operator and the drivetrain,according to the manufacturer.

Hydraulic flow and metering ensurepowerful digging force, precise low-effortcontrol and enhanced multi-functionoperation. Quick, responsive pump activa-tion eliminates any delay in functions.

An intuitive, multi-language LCD moni-tor provides a wealth of information,including pump flow adjustment, mainte-nance tracking, onboard diagnostics andservice monitoring.

Comfortable Cab Both units have cabs with more

legroom, lower noise levels and ergonom-ic low-effort controls to fight fatigue andenhance productivity.

The multi-position seat slides togetherwith the control console or independently,ensuring operators can find a comfortableposition.The tilt steering wheel is infinitelyadjustable for more comfortable opera-tion and it angles up and out of the way foreasy entry and exit.

Visibility is improved, too, as a widerexpanse of right-hand window glass com-bined with narrower front cab post andfront steering console provide virtuallyunobstructed all-around visibility. Theoverhead tinted window hatch also is larg-er, improving visibility to any obstaclesoverhead.

Changing hydraulic flow is easy whenyou use the LCD monitor to observe the

flow. You can accommodate a variety ofattachment needs, right from the seat.Also, joystick controllers come pre-fittedfor auxiliary controls, so it’s easy and inex-pensive to add auxiliary hydraulics. The

units come stan-dard with low-flowmedium-pressureassist hydraulics foroperating thumbs,rotators or tilt buck-ets.

A high-efficiencycooling fan, noise-suppression muf-fler and isochro-nous high-idlespeed all work tokeep the operator’senvironment quiet.S i l i c o n e - f i l l e dmounts effectivelyisolate operators

from noise and vibration.The cab also features an AM/FM radio,

an automatic, high-capacity climate-con-trol system, and a convenient 12-volt portfor cell phone charging.There’s also a spacefor a lunch box, cup holders, and even ahot/cold box that keeps refreshments atthe right temperature.

Dependability and Serviceability John Deere wheeled excavators retain

all the dependability and serviceability fea-tures of their D-Series siblings for maxi-mum uptime and low daily operatingcosts.

Rigid, reinforced D-channel side framesresist impacts, providing maximum caband component protection. Welded bulk-heads within the boom resist torsionalstress for long-term durability. Heavy-dutycovers on the oversize outriggers help pro-tect the hydraulic cylinders from damage.

Tungsten-carbide coating creates awear-resistant surface to protect the buck-et-to-arm joint. Powdered metal oil-impregnated bushings enhance durabilityand extend grease intervals to 500 hoursfor the arm-and-boom joint and 100 hoursfor the bucket joint.Reinforced resin thrustplates increase lube intervals to 500 hours.

Large service doors provide wide-openaccess to daily checkpoints. Easy-access,remote-mount oil and fuel filters can bechanged without crawling under themachine or removing access panels,reduc-ing service time.Extended service intervalslet you work longer — and earn more —between changes.

Zaxis 350LC-3 Is a Versatile PerformerBeefed-up in several critical areas and

powered by Isuzu’s six-cylinder Tier-III-cer-tified engine, the ZX350LC-3 performsmore like its larger production-sized sib-lings,according to the manufacturer.Swingtorque, traction force, and digging forcehave all been increased over previousmodels.The P Mode increases production;the E mode can reduce fuel consumption.

The Zaxis 350LC-3 weighs 77,269 lbs.(35,049 kg) and comes standard with a 13-ft. 1-in. (4 m) arm, a 16,314 lb. (7,400 kg)counterweight, and 32-in. (80 cm) triplesemi-grouser shoes.Other arm lengths areoptionally available.

Engine and HydraulicsPowering the 350LC-3 is the Isuzu AH-

6HK1YSA-01 engine,with a rated power of271 SAE net hp (202 kW) at 1,900 rpm. Afresh new design, rather than a re-work ofolder technology, the Isuzu Tier-III-certifiedengine achieves increased fuel efficiencyand greater output primarily through acommon-rail fuel-injection system and thecooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)system that uses an isochronous controlfor the electronic governor.

Working in synergistic tandem with theengine is the Hitachi HIOS III hydraulic sys-tem, formulated to specifically match theIsuzu’s torque curve. When combiningfunctions such as boom-up, arm-in, buck-et-curl, and travel, HIOS III ensures smoothand powerful performance — no onefunction is sacrificed for another. Swingspeed is 10.7 rpm.

Comfy CabThe CRES II cab has a wide, comfortable

seatback, more foot room, and a muchlarger right-side window for visibility.Pedals are shaped for easier use; the cabhas been strengthened to protect against

greater external pressures.The widescreencolor LCD monitor is multilingual and mul-tifunctional. From the seat, the operatorcan make simple oil flow adjustments forattachments, monitor 32 items, and trackmaintenance for 14 items. Short-throw,low-effort levers mean fingertip control istruly possible.

Built for DurabilityLike all Dash-3 excavators, the undercar-

riage X-beam is stronger — due to mono-lithic plates top and bottom instead of con-ventional welded plates. Box sections arelarger. Side frame height has beenincreased for greater rigidity.

Track links are thicker and have beenreshaped for higher durability. Instead ofthe conventional one, three track guardsare now provided, protecting the tracklinks from disengagement during steering.

Wider idler brackets, thicker idler bracketlocking plates, and bigger, stronger upperand lower rollers also contribute to durabil-ity and reliability, according to the manu-facturer.

The track chain is sealed and lubricated.The upperstructure continues with

Hitachi’s signature D-section frame skirt toincrease rigidity.The boom foot,boom top,and arm cylinder mounting area havebeen strengthened. HN bushings, usingHitachi’s own molybdenum-based lubri-cant, are used at the boom-arm joint andarm cylinder mounting area for betterlubrication and higher durability. At thearm-bucket joint, the arm top is hardenedwith tungsten-carbide thermal sprayingfor greater wear resistance at its contactsurface with the bucket.


The Zaxis 350LC-3 weighs 77,269 lbs. (35,094 kg) and comes standard with a 13-ft. 1-in. (4m) arm, a 16,314-lb. (7,400 kg) counterweight, and 32-in. (80 cm) triple semi-grousershoes.


Link-Belt 130 X2 Series Excavator BoastsDial-Up Work Modes

LBX Company’s Link-Belt 130 X2 Series full-size excavator features Tier-III engine technol-ogy.Available with either a long undercarriageor regular carriage with blade and rubbertracks, the 130 X2 is designed for various resi-dential and municipal applications.

PowerfulThe 130 X2 engine, hydraulics and onboard

computer have been systematically designedfor efficient,maximum power and productivity.

EngineA completely re-engineered EPA certified

Tier-III Isuzu engine meets the strictest emis-sion regulations with exhaust gas recirculationtechnology, common rail fuel injection andturbocharger with intercooler to lower Noxand PM.With an increase in power to 95 hp (71kW) and lower RPMs,the 130 X2 burns less fuelthan before.

X2 Series’ Isuzu engines are equipped withglow plugs and feature automatic “idle-start”and “auto engine warm-up.” They have “cold-start” capability with built-in features toextend service life, according to the manufac-turer.

Additionally, the “Engine ProtectionFeature” systematically preserves the engineshould it experience an event that could causea failure.All Isuzu engines carry a 2-year,3,000-hour warranty, whichever comes first.

HydraulicsWorking in synergy with the engine, the

hydraulic system provides an increase of up to10 percent in hydraulic horsepower. Whetherused in trenching, lifting, grading or runningauxiliary tools, the 130 X2 excavator isdesigned with the hydraulic features neededto specifically optimize each function. Forexample, the load-sensing automatic powerboost feature provides additional power tomuscle through tough digging conditions; orprovides needed power in heavy lifting appli-cations.

The 130 X2 also features 2-speed boom lift-ing and arm open/close functions in conjunc-tion with hydraulic system regeneration toprovide enhanced digging, lifting and swingspeeds in 90-degree applications.

The onboard computer system senses andevaluates each load and allocates power andspeed where it’s needed, never sacrificing onefunction for another, according to the manu-facturer.

Standard joysticks come pre-wired foropen/close/hammer and rotate left and right.The auxiliary spool is already built into themain control valve and additional spools canbe stacked. The 130 X2 is already configuredwith ten auxiliary pre-sets for flow and pres-sure to easily choose the setting that’s neededfor the tool that’s working. Aftermarket tubingis simple to add since the clamps come stan-dard on the boom and arm.

Work ModesDepending on the

application, different workmodes can easily be select-ed to change machine out-put by simply dialing theengine throttle to one ofthe following settings:

• SP: Speed PriorityMode — Engine andhydraulic pumps are set atmaximum output to pro-vide faster cycle times forincreased productivity.Power Boost automaticallyengages for eight secondswhen needed in this mode.

• H:Heavy Mode — Thisis an all-purpose workmode that providesreduced fuel consumption. Power Boost auto-matically engages for eight seconds whenneeded in this mode.

• A:Applied Power Mode — Use this modefor lifting heavy objects or when performingprecision functions. Power Boost is always on.

DurableEvery major component of the 130 X2 is

built to provide maximum strength, supportand durability.

The cab of this machine has a strong, rein-forced tubular frame. Improved cab mountssecure the cab to the frame,providing a sturdy,protective shell for the operator.

The boom of the 130 X2 is engineered towithstand high torsional stresses. The boom-base boss sections are forged and the boomand arm-tip components are cast, providingmaximum strength and durability.

Extended Maintenance System (EMS) pinsand bushings reduce wear-and-tear,and brassbushings with graphite inserts reduce frictionand extend lube intervals. Chrome pins andresin shims reduce free play and wear at theboom foot and boom top.

Protective features of the 130 X2 include a“parkerized” fuel tank that prevents corrosiondue to water in the fuel;a drain cock and main-tenance port on the fuel tank for easy inspec-tion; side-by-side mounted radiator and oilcooler fins for simple cleaning; and a protec-tive mesh screen to prevent debris from clog-ging cooler fins.

ServiceableLink-Belt’s “Extended Maintenance System”

extends lube intervals to six months or 1,000-hours for all attachment pivot points. With a5,000-hour hydraulic oil change interval and a2,000-hour filter replacement interval, theowning and operating costs of the 130 X2 arekept down.

Ground-level access to remote-mounted fil-ters means filters can be easily changed. Andto help prevent spills, filters are mounted verti-cally. Additionally, an engine oil drain “greenplug” has a spring-loaded release and drainhose for an easier, more environmentally

friendly oil change.In the event that service is needed on the

130 X2, diagnostics are straightforward andquick. Link-Belt service technicians can easilytroubleshoot this machine with its onboarddiagnostic system, saving time and money bygetting right to the issue.

John Deere is offering two newhydraulic excavators in the 13.2 to 14.9ton (12- to 13.5-t) range, the 120D and135D.

The 120D is a “dig-and-run” unit forjobs such as excavating basements orplacing pipe and transports easilybetween jobs.The 135D is a reduced tailswing machine capable of maximumproduction in confined areas and workwithin a single lane of traffic. A shortcounterweight allows it to dig nearbuildings and obstructions.

“Both these machines have the hall-marks of our D-Series line, including ourPowerwise IIIengine andhydraulic man-agement systemfor smooth powerand fuel savings,and roomy, com-fortable cabs withgreat visibility,”said Mark Wall,excavator productmarketing man-ager, John DeereConstruction &Forestry.

Both excavatorshave Tier III-certi-fied diesels. Dueto the PowerwiseI I Iengine/hydraulicmanagement sys-tem, that power isdelivered withpinpoint metering for smooth, pre-dictable control, according to the man-ufacturer.

A hydraulic recirculation systemdelivers flow to the boom and arm,speeding multifunction operation andcycle times.

Three modes can be selected tomatch the engine rpm to the operatingconditions and application. The new “E”mode for light-duty work reduces fuelconsumption without sacrificing pro-ductivity. The “H/P” (high-power) modeincreases engine rpm to boost horse-power for working through tough

spots. Theengine rpma u t o m a t i c a l l yreturns to nor-mal once theresistance isovercome.

When chang-ing attachments,simply matchthe hydraulicflow to thea t t a c h m e n tusing the newLCD display

monitor — there’s no need to leave thecab.

The optional backfill blade handlesbackfill and cleanup duties, while pro-viding additional stability for runninghydraulic hammers and other heavy-duty attachments.

On the 120D, an optional cool-on-demand system features a fan that runsonly as needed, reducing noise, fuelconsumption and operating costs. Areversing option on the 120Dsequipped with cool-on-demand auto-matically back-blows cooler cores toreduce debris buildup.

Comfort and Uptime Operators can be more pro-

ductive in the 120D and 135Dexcavators due to the easy-to-enter, comfortable cab.The cab isspacious and well appointed. Italso is isolation mounted andoffers substantial, virtually unre-stricted visibility, as well asergonomically arranged con-trols. Machine operations can bemonitored on the multifunctionLCD screen. All the creature com-forts are there as well, like auto-matic climate control, AM/FMradio, and a deluxe-suspensionmulti-position seat.

Tungsten-carbide coated surfacesand oil-impregnated boom, arm andbucket bushings deliver long-termdurability. Large, easy-to-open servicedoors provide ample access to dip-sticks, sight gauges, and spin-on verticalengine and hydraulic filters for simpledaily and periodic servicing. Extendedengine and hydraulic oil service inter-vals increase uptime and reduce dailyoperating costs.

Kubota Unveils Super Double Boom UtilityClass Excavator

Kubota has introduced the KX080-3super double boom 8-ton (7.2 t) utilityclass excavator. The double boom addslength and functionality to the machinewhile allowing operators to reach fur-ther, dig deeper and level wider ranges.Kubota’s KX080-3 super double boom isideal for contractors and landscaperslooking for a versatile excavator.

“The super double boom on ourKX080-3 is the latest development inthe utility class excavator market,” saidKeith Rohrbacker, Kubota product man-ager. “The expandable boom featurelets professional operators continueworking while repositioning themachine less, resulting in a more pro-ductive work site. In fact, the KX080-3super double boom provides a widerworking range than many larger exca-vators.”

Wider Working RangeWhether the job calls for leveling,

dumping, or digging, the KubotaKX080-3 super double boom deliversgreater performance than a standard

boom. The super double boom isdesigned to bring the bucket morethan 3 ft. (.9 m) closer to the machine,making it easy to hold soil in front ofthe blade when leveling, while eliminat-ing the small piles of rocks and rubbleoften left by a standard boom. Otherfeatures include a dumping height ofjust over 20 ft. (6 m) and a diggingdepth of slightly more than 15 ft. (4.6m).The wide leveling range with a widetilt bucket also allows operators to easi-ly level and finish on uneven surfaces.

Ease of OperationThe super double boom is designed

to operate with the simple step of apedal. Stepping on the left side of thepedal retracts the boom. And steppingon the right side of the pedal extends it.A breakout force of 14,660 lbs. (6,650kg) ensures high productivity in thetoughest of applications and a tight tailswing allows maneuvering in narrowjob spaces. The KX080-3 is equippedwith a three-pump load sensing systemto ensure consistent performance dur-

ing movement and simultaneousundertaking of applications, accordingto the manufacturer.

Like the standard KX080-3, the superdouble boom is equipped with a four-cylinder 70-hp. (52 kW) Kubota dieselengine and an auto idling system thatcontributes to reduction in noise andfuel consumption. Standard featuresinclude: dual auxiliary hydraulic ports,an anti-theft system for added security,deluxe suspension seat with retractableseatbelt, air conditioned cab and travelmotors that automatically downshift.

Komatsu PC35MR-3 Compact HydraulicExcavator Increases Productivity

p.’s (KAC) PC35MR-3 compacthydraulic excavator is designed to bringincreased production and added opera-tor comfort to contractors in a variety ofconstruction, utility, landscaping andother applications.

The PC35MR-3 is equipped with thelatest Komtrax technology, which sendsmachine operating information to asecure Web site utilizing wireless tech-nology. Data such as operating hours,machine location and fuel levels arerelayed to the web application foranalysis. The Komtrax fleet monitoringsystem increases machine availability,reduces the risk of machine theft andprovides a wealth of other informationto drive business efficiency.

Special features of the PC35MR-3include:

• Operator ComfortFor operator comfort, the PC35MR-3

allows easy entry and egress due to thewide entrance and well placed handholds. A fully adjustable suspensionseat with retractable seat belt lessensfatigue, and pilot proportional joystickcontrols with wrist rests permit continu-

ous, comfortable operation.• ProductivityThe PC35MR-3 is a member of the

minimum swing radius (MR) family ofcompact excavators. This enables theoperator to focus on the work in frontand worry less about rear swingimpacts in confined areas.The PC35MR-3 accomplishes these tasks while main-taining high lift capacity and stability.

The PC35MR-3 has an operatingweight of 7,909 lbs. (3,587 kg), and fea-tures a maximum dig depth of 11 ft. 4 in.(3.4 m). The standard thumb mountingbracket and auxiliary hydraulics simplifyhydraulic thumb installation, enhancingthe machine’s capability and versatility.The optional Power Angle (PA) Bladeallows the operator to angle the blade25 degrees to the right or left, increas-ing the excavator’s productivity; this isespecially useful when backfillingtrenches.

• ValueThe PC35MR-3 gets its power from a

Komatsu engine with a net power of28.9 hp (21.5 kW). The direct injection

engine meets EPA emissions require-ments and is fuel efficient without sacri-ficing power or efficiency. The X-trackframe deters the build-up dirt anddebris, saving the operator valuabletime when cleaning the machine. Thesingle, large diameter swing pin ensureslong life and durability of the boomswing mechanism.

• Service and MaintenanceTo simplify maintenance, Komatsu

equipped the PC35MR-3 with numer-ous features. The operator compart-ment tilts up for providing access to thehydraulic components and the back ofthe engine (starter/alternator).The wideopening engine cover and side coversprovide outstanding access to dailycheckpoints. In addition, the radiatorand oil cooler are side by side makingthem easy to inspect and clean, and itensures that only the cleanest freshestair reaches each component. Extendedgreasing and service intervals make iteasier to schedule maintenance.

Gradall Rolls Out XL 4100 III ExcavatorThe Gradall XL 4100 III excavator has a

single Detroit Diesel Mercedes engine, pro-viding an extra edge in horsepower whilecost-efficiently operating both the over-the-highway carrier and the powerful upper-structure and boom. The ability of the oper-ator to drive the excavator to job sites andthen back to the safety of the equipment yardat night saves time and eliminates the needfor a trailer — a traditional advantage forGradall’s highway-speed models.

The XL4100 III carrier tail swing is 12 in.(30.5 cm) shorter than the XL 4100 II, themodel it replaces in the Gradall lineup. Theshorter tail swing allows the machine to bemore productive on roadside jobs, with lessinterference with traffic. The carrier is avail-able in either 6 x 4, weighing approximately47,500 lbs. (21,545 kg) and 6 x 6, weighingapproximately 49,420 lbs. (22,416 kg).

The spacious upperstructure cab has morestandard comfort features and operatingadvantages including a switch that allowsthe operator to select the Gradall, Deere orSAE joystick pattern — a feature that short-ens the learning curve for some equipmentoperators. Another cab switch adjusts carrierspeed during repositioning from the uppercab.

The advanced hydraulics system has pres-sure-compensated, load-sensing valves withcircuit reliefs on all circuits. This systemdelivers the right amount of hydraulic powerto the boom, increasing cost efficiency whenperforming a wide range of jobs from highproductivity excavation to loading trucks or

even spreading soil and grading. Ratedbucket force is 24,900 lbs. (111 kN) whilethe telescoping boom crowd force is 24,500lbs. (109 kN). Unlike conventional excava-tors, the telescoping boom forces are con-stant through the entire dig cycle, accordingto the manufacturer.

The automatic hydraulic system allowsoperators to concentrate on the joystick con-trols, built into the large seating module arm-rests, to mange boom motions that tele-

scope, tilt 220 degrees, swing from side toside or up and down. The low profile tele-scoping boom action allows the XL 4100 IIIto work where conventional knuckle boomscannot, under bridges and tree limbs or intunnels.

The boom delivers a maximum reach of30 ft. 3 in. (9.22 m) at grade; a dig depth of20 ft. 3 in. (6.17 m); and a lift height of 22 ft.6 in. (6.83 m).

Increased swing speed and cycle times,combined with the power of high pressurehydraulics, make the XL 4100 III competi-tive with conventional excavators while alsohandling the work of many machines. Toachieve full versatility, a single operator canquickly change between an array of attach-ments including excavating, trenching,ditching, pavement removal and dredgingbuckets. Also available are a single-toothripper, grading blade, tree limb shear, grap-ple, and boom extensions including theTelestick. A live boom extension can givethe XL 4100 III the ability to reach overobstacles and into ditches.

Like many of the component and serviceparts on the XL 4100 III, all of the attach-ments also are interchangeable with theother Gradall Series III machines. For equip-ment fleet owners and managers, that makesit both economical and efficient to inventoryfewer service parts and attachments.

Mobility on the job site is highly efficientbecause the carrier can be repositioned fromthe upperstructure cab using foot pedals anda speed selection switch on the control

panel.Also designed for comfort as well as effi-

ciency on highways and back roads, the car-rier cab has extra sound-deadening materialand an optional tilt steering wheel. The car-rier has a 9-speed transmission and clutchwith hydraulic actuation and double plate.Other standard features include hub piloteddisc wheels, upper cab wiper and washer,rear tow hooks and an air ride seat in the car-rier.

Maintenance advantages include an inter-nal swing gear, planetary tilt transmissionthat’s “lubed for life” and the elimination ofboom tilt rollers to avoid service time forroller lubrication and adjustment. The newdiesel engine allows for longer periodsbetween oil and filter changes, fuel filter andcoolant replacement and valve adjustments.Most service points can be reached atground level to help assure maximum lifeand productivity.
