uturistic erformance
High Productivity
A truly high-performance machine 6% more production in H/P mode (compared to EX220-5). 8% (Bucket) 7% (Arm) more digging force (compared to EX220-5). 5% more travel power (compared to EX220-5). 8% more swing power (compared to EX220-5). 6% less fuel consumption during light load operation from auto acceleration system (compared to normal operation).

Lower Running Costs

Stronger structural component design Increased wear resistance of bucket joint: WC thermal spraying. 40-ton class D-type frame. New HN Bushing.

Lower Maintenance Costs

Reduced maintenance time and expense Extended lubrication interval at bucket joint section. Extended replacement interval for hydraulic oil filter.

CRES Cab (Center pillar Reinforced Structure)

Provides excellent operator comfort Low noise and vibration in cab.

Notes : 1. Never leave the front attachment in a raised position. Make sure the front attachment is lowered to the ground before leaving the equipment unattended. (Some of the pictures in this catalog show an unmanned machine with attachments in an operating position. These were taken for demonstration purposes only and the actions shown are not recommended under normal operating conditions.) 2. Caution plates on the machine will vary according to country. 3. Photos include optional equipment.

Auto Acceleration System Helps Reduce Fuel Consumption All Excavating Operations in a Single Mode
Simply select the "digging" mode for smooth and speedy front operations. Engine speed is automatically controlled in response to lever operation. This helps reduce fuel consumption, especially during lightless fuel load work.
