Durability, reliability and productivity in a large excavator

The PC900LC-11 is built for tough jobs that require high performance. This excavator is an easy-to-transport, versatile machine with exceptional power and digging capabilities. Excellent for construction, mass excavation, material handling, deep sewer and water installations, and mining/quarry environments. The PC900LC-11 is a perfect four-pass match for the HM400-5 truck.

  • 10% more engine HP*
  • 11% stronger bucket digging force*
  • 48% more productive* (more HP, larger bucket and better hydraulics increase cycle times)
  • 40% more efficient* (with the Tier 4 engine and enhanced hydraulic circuits)

Note: *versus the PC800LC-8 model
