JOHN DEERE 160G CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

The John Deere 160G LC is a mid-size hydraulic excavator engineered for versatile jobsite applications requiring reliable power and operational control. Powered by a John Deere PowerTech 4.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, this machine delivers 121 horsepower (90 kW) at 2,000 RPM, providing consistent performance across demanding tasks. The excavator features an operating weight of 39,685 pounds, making it transportable yet substantial enough for heavy-duty operations. The 160G LC excels in digging capability with a maximum digging depth of 6.49 meters (21 feet 4 inches) and maximum reach of 8.87 meters (29 feet 1 inch). The standard arm configuration generates 90 kN (20,193 lb) of digging force, while an extended arm option increases reach to 3.10 meters. The swing mechanism operates at 13.3 rpm with 44,000 Nm of torque, enabling efficient material handling. Key operational features include the Powerwise Plus hydraulic management system with three productivity modes—High, Power, and Economy—allowing operators to optimize performance based on job requirements. The machine incorporates a hydraulic single-pedal propel system for straight-line tracking and auto-idle technology that reduces engine speed to 900 rpm when hydraulics are inactive, promoting fuel efficiency. The 320-liter fuel tank supports extended operation, while the spacious cab with enhanced visibility and intuitive multi-language LCD monitor ensures operator comfort and control. Standard equipment includes auxiliary hydraulics, a hydraulic thumb, and compatibility with various bucket sizes and track widths, delivering flexibility for diverse applications.
