Heavy-Duty Axles and Stabilizers.
The D-Series Wheel Excavator
undercarriage with pin on/bolt on
design provides excellent flexibility,
rigidity and long life. Effective hydraulic
line routing, transmission protection and
heavy-duty axles make the undercarriage
perfect for wheel excavator applications.
The front axle offers wide oscillating
and steering angles. The transmission
is mounted directly on the rear axle for
protection and optimum ground clearance. Advanced Disc Brake System. The disc
brake system acts directly on the hub
instead of the drive shaft to avoid
planetary gear backlash. This solution
eliminates the rocking effect associated
with working free on wheels. The axle
design lowers maintenance and lifetime
costs. Oil change intervals are at
2,000 working hours, further reducing
owner and operator costs.
Drive Line Concept. The rear mounted
transmission and robust drive line
design, delivers excellent ground
clearance for all off-road applications.
Fenders. The optional fenders provide
excellent coverage of the front and rear
tires, protecting the machine from mud
and dirt. Water cannot splash up on
the wind screen or cooler. The fenders
further protect the machine from stones
and debris being thrown up by the tires,
providing additional safety for the
machine, other vehicles and personnel
working close to the excavator.
Adjustable Travel Alarm. An adjustable
travel alarm is available to warn
people when the machine is moving.
Three settings can be selected through
the monitor.
• Auto mode – alarm will stop sounding
immediately when the machine is
no longer traveling, or has been
sounding for an uninterrupted
10-second interval.
• Standard mode – alarm operates
constantly during moving, with only
manual cancellation.
• Off mode – Travel Alarm is disabled.
