Link-Belt Introduces New Heavy Duty Excavators for North American Market

The 210 X4 Heavy Duty, 250 X4 Heavy Duty, and 300 X4 Heavy Duty are approved for tough applications like demolition, land clearing, heavy-duty excavating, and pipeline work.

“LBX is excited to introduce another purpose built product line from the factory to offer alongside our Forestry equipment and Material Handlers,” said Chris Wise, Market Development Manager at LBX. “These Heavy Duty machines give our dealers and customers the ability to buy a machine that has been designed and engineered specifically for tougher applications. The lower is impressive with its aggressive stance and is built using upsized components, full track guards, and stronger carrier rollers to protect against all the rock and debris it tracks over.”

Undercarriage Configurations
All Heavy Duty models are factory equipped with a high-wide and heavy-duty undercarriage with larger components for added durability, strength, and performance. Compared to LBX's standard excavators, these models have an 11-17% wider stance and 40-50% higher ground clearance giving them excellent stability and increased lift capacities to handle the rugged work they were designed for. Traveling performance has also been drastically improved with up to a 30% increase in drawbar pull. All three models come standard with double bar grousers for added traction across rough terrain. In addition, the HD attachments feature a high lift bracket for a greater working range and increased lift capacities.

Platform & Engine Configurations
Built off LBX's industry-leading X4 platform, these Heavy Duty excavators have a strong foundation of some of the lowest operating costs in the industry today. The models are powered by Isuzu Final Tier 4 engines that deliver exceptional power and low fuel/DEF consumption without the use of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) to maintain. The X4 cab has all the creature comforts you’d come to expect—including a high-resolution 7” LCD monitor, a standard rearview camera, a high-back air suspension seat with heat and tilt functionality, onboard Bluetooth, Free Swing, and straight travel pedal—all factory equipped. In addition, all models come standard with combination hydraulics and proportional joysticks for added tool versatility and performance.

Warranty & Serviceability
LBX backs up their 210 X4, 250 X4, and 300 X4 Heavy Duty Excavators with a 3-year/3,000-hour full machine warranty, a 5-year/3,000-hour EPA Emissions Warranty, and a 3-year/10,000- hour Structural Warranty. Serviceability remains a strong selling feature with easy access to all regular maintenance items. RemoteCARE is a powerful tool that provides 24/7 remote monitoring, machine health, and security features and is included on each of these models with no subscription charges or fees.
