Doosan DX225SLR-5 super long reach excavator
Spacious ergonomic cab
Already excelling in spaciousness and ergonomics, the cab on the DX225SLR-5 is bigger than that in the previous DX225SLR-3 and has been further refined for outstanding operator comfort and ease of operation. The features offered as standard in the cab are among the best in the market and include super controllability with a system that enables attachments to be operated from either the joystick or a two-way pedal. The operator can select 10 pre-set configurations for attachments and hydraulic flow and pressure data can be pre-selected directly from the control panel, allowing a quick change of attachments without the need for a manual set-up.
The joysticks have also been shortened to reduce the effort required to operate them and an additional pedal for straight travel has now been installed on the left of the main travel pedals, a very useful feature when travelling straight over longer distances. The operator console has been moved onto the seat suspension to reduce vibrations. This gives the operator much better control with the joystick in rough operation.
Like all Doosan ‘-5’ excavators above 20 tonne, the DX225SLR-5 incorporates a thicker inside plate in the arms and booms, providing front reinforcement to relieve stress concentration and a different welding method has also been applied. To further maximise durability and reduce noise, all ‘-5’ models are equipped with EM (Enhanced Macro-surface) bushings, which are also much more effective than regular bushings when greased.
