Link-Belt offers the 220 X4S excavator for heavy digging and construction in outdoor jobsites. This machine is powered by a 160-hp Isuzu turbocharged diesel engine and features an operating weight of 49,200 lbs. The 220 X4S has a maximum dig depth of 21 ft., 10 in. and can reach a maximum travel speed of 3.5 mph.
Dynamic stability control, payload, height and depth alarm and a digital level are all standard equipment on the 220 X4S machine.
The 220 X4S features Custom Flow Balance, customizable joystick function buttons, several work modes and Trimble-ready components. Operators can access a 10-in. display to view the status of components and the surrounding area during use. A dualband modem supports RemoteCARE communication for remote monitoring.
“The new X4S line, with a focus on performance and innovative features, delivers up to 17% increase in engine HP and 19% improved fuel economy over its predecessor,” said Adam Woods, general manager of Innovation and Product Portfolio Strategies at LBX.
“With this performance and efficiency improvement, many OEM’s would stop there, but Link-Belt Excavators didn’t. Now the customer will get WAVES, our Wide Angle Visual Enhancement System, with 270° birds-eye view, standard, therefore improving site awareness. Other features within the newly designed cab are customizable switch layouts for the joysticks, 4 new work modes enabling increased efficiency and productivity and technologies such as Custom Flow Balance, allowing the operator to prioritize hydraulic functions based on application. All of this, coupled with a standard Precision Grade ready spec, are examples of the focus Link-Belt Excavators put into X4S to make this machine the performer our customer base has come to expect.”
The cab is equipped with a high-back seat with air, tilt and heat features. Adjustable pivoting armrests, headrests, seat height and lumbar support are also available for operators.
