The Komatsu 200 series excavator is one of the most popular 1 man operated skid steer loaders. You can recognize a Komatsu 200 by the 02-04-0xx or 02-09-0xx serial number and lc3, lc8 or lc11 decals on both sides of the loader shovel.

komatsu 200 excavator-LC3 and LC8 are different models of the Komatsu 200 excavator.

LC3 and LC8 are different models of the Komatsu 200 excavator. The LC3 was introduced in 1990, while the latest model, the LC8, has a 2007 release date. Each machine is a hydraulic excavator with a large bucket that can be used to dig or move material.

Major Differences

The major difference between the two Komatsu models lies in their size. The LC3 is capable of lifting 6.7 tons, while the LC8 can lift nearly 10 tons. The LC8 also has a longer reach than its predecessor with a maximum horizontal reach of 33 feet, 8 inches and a maximum vertical reach of over 25 feet. The bucket for the Komatsu 200 can hold up to 1 cubic yard of material.

Power Source

Both models are powered by an Isuzu diesel engine, but the LC3 uses an older version that produces 126 horsepower at 2,200 rpm. The newest model has an Isuzu 6BGIT engine that produces 175 horsepower at 2,200 rpm and can achieve speeds of up to 4 mph in forward motion and 3 mph in reverse motion.

Safety Features

Safety features on both versions of the Komatsu 200 include an automatic engine shutdown if oil pressure drops below normal levels or if there is high coolant.

The LC8 is the older model trackhoe and the LC3 is the newer updated version. The LC8 is a 2 valve engine and the LC3 is a 4 valve engine. The LC3 has more power at lower rpm range, uses less fuel and oil, runs quieter and smoother. The LC3 is a better engine but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll see the difference. More than likely if you’re using it for lawn maintenance you’ll never notice the difference in engines, only when you’re using it on heavy equipment loads will you see a difference. The better cab with AC is probably the biggest advantage of buying a newer machine.

komatsu 200 excavator-The LC8 weighs about 6 tons more than the PC200-LC3 but it was much less expensive at the time of its release.

The PC200-LC3 model offers a quicker cycle time than the PC200-LC8 model. The PC200-LC3 is more useful for excavating and lifting large objects, but it is also suitable for general construction work. The PC200-LC8 has a higher operating weight and is better suited to heavy duty construction work.

The PC400-LC6 has an operating weight of 21 tons while the PC400-LC7 is 22 tons. These two models are similar in terms of their specifications: they both have a maximum digging depth of 12 feet and an arm length of five feet.

Both the PC400-LC6 and the PC400-LC7 have a bucket capacity of 1.9 cubic yards. They are powered by an Isuzu diesel engine with a net horsepower rating of 260 horsepower at 2,000 rpm. The engine meets EPA Tier 4 emission standards and features a high pressure common rail fuel injection system with four valves per cylinder for greater efficiency.

These two models have a maximum travel speed of 3 mph with counterweights installed on the undercarriage. The cab features noise reduction technology to provide a comfortable work environment for the operator, who can adjust all controls from his seat using hydraulic levers and joysticks.

Komatsu 200 excavators are large, powerful and versatile machines. They are used in construction, mining, quarry and on farms. The Komatsu 200 has a medium swing arc for a standard backhoe.

The size of the Komatsu 200 makes it an ideal choice for many jobs. It is small enough to work in tight spaces but has a large reach and lifting capacity. Many owners purchase this machine for use on their farms or ranches.

The Komatsu 200 comes with a front end loader attachment and a backhoe attachment. The front end loader bucket can be replaced with forks to lift pallets or other items.

The bucket on the backhoe is adjustable from 24 inches down to 18 inches in width. The total digging depth is greater than 13 feet while the bucket height at full extension is greater than 19 feet high.

komatsu 200 excavator-LC3 will usually mean Long Carriage 3 rd generation.

LC3 will usually mean Long Carriage 3 rd generation. Long carriage is a type of carriage that, when the paper size is changed to A3, moves the print head in the horizontal direction.

There are two types of carriages: short and long. Short carriage moves the print head in the vertical direction when the paper size is changed to A3. If a printer has an A4 paper size, then it is short carriage. On some printers there may be an option to change from short to long carriage. Printers usually come with short carriage as standard, and long carriage as an expensive optional extra.

The term LC3 is not used on printers that have long carriage by default, since it’s not an optional extra.
