TXC300 LC-2 excavatorTerex upgraded the TXC300 LC-2 excavator with a Tier 3 emissions-compliant Daewoo engine whose electronics interface with the hydraulic-system controller for what Terex claims is a 4 percent improvement in productivity and 6 percent better fuel efficiency. A simple control allows the operator to switch the control pattern. Oil-change intervals have doubled to 4,000 hours, and air-filter replacements quadrupled to 2,000 hours.

Terex upgraded the TXC300 LC-2 excavator with a Tier 3 emissions-compliant Daewoo engine whose electronics interface with the hydraulic-system controller for what Terex claims is a 4 percent improvement in productivity and 6 percent better fuel efficiency. A simple control allows the operator to switch the control pattern. Oil-change intervals have doubled to 4,000 hours, and air-filter replacements quadrupled to 2,000 hours. Front pin lubrication intervals are stretched to 250 hours. A new attachment flow-rate control allows the operator to adjust auxiliary oil flow to suit the tool.
