Wheel Excavator
Hydraulics
The hydraulic system, featuring a
separate swing pump and load-sensing
system, provides maximum power and
exceptional controllability leading to
high performance in all applications. The
technologically advanced tool control
option adds work tool flexibility to the
hydraulic system.
Proportional medium pressure function
allows improved control of attachments
and work tools.
The new adjustable hydraulic sensitivity
allows adjustment of attachments in
order to find the best setup for any
application. This ensures both improved
productivity and greater operator
comfort. pg. 5
