Kobelco debuts in 80- to 90-ton class
The SK850LC Super ACERA heavy-duty, full-sized excavator was designed to deliver a competitive edge whether the job involves heavy earthmoving, aggregates or demolition. In keeping with the ACERA tradition, the SK850LC delivers power for heavy-duty applications. The excavator has faster cycle times as well as a large bucket capacity, making work more efficient. The SK850LC provides strong breakout, drawbar pull and swing torque forces, combining precision and power to maximize performance.

The SK850LC has four standard working modes for enhanced performance. The H Mode allows heavy digging and high productivity while the S Mode delivers standard digging and increased fuel savings. The other two work modes include the B Mode, which powers one-way flow attachments, such as breakers, and the A Mode for attachments that require two-way flow.

The excavator can easily be configured four different ways for shipping and transport to meet varying local requirements. The machine features a seven-way adjustable suspension seat, cross-flow air ventilation and an orange backlit monitor with sunshade. Like other Kobelco excavators, the SK850LC is designed to simplify routine maintenance checks. A centrally located catwalk provides access to filters, engine compartment, swing motors and storage areas. Other routine maintenance checks are easily completed from a walking platform.
