Height Can be slewed though 360° In longitudinal position of undercarriage Max. reach * Limited by hydr. capacity
The load values are quoted in tons (t) at stick end (without bucket), and may be swung 360° on firm and even ground. Adjacent values are valid
for the undercarriage when in the longitudinal position. Capacities are valid for 600 mm wide double grouser pads. Indicated loads are based on
ISO 10567 standard and do not exceed 75 % of tipping or 87 % of hydraulic capacity (indicated via *). Without bucket cylinder, link and lever the
lift capacities will increase by 950 kg. Lifting capacity of the excavator is limited by machine stability and hydraulic capacity.
According to European Standard, EN 474-5: In the European Union excavators have to be equipped with an overload warning device, a load dia-
gram and automatic safety check valves on hoist cylinders and stick cylinder(s), when they are used for lifting operations which require the use of
lifting accessories.
