TXC300 LC-2 Excavator


Terex Construction Americas, Southaven, Miss., has introduced the new TXC300 LC-2 excavator. Replacing the TXC300 LC-1 unit, the TXC300 LC-2 includes upgrades and advanced features designed to increase operator comfort, productivity and fuel efficiency, according to Terex. The new unit also features a Tier-3 emission-complaint engine that uses a common rail injection system. The system uses high fuel injection pressure to burn the smallest particle fuel size completely, the company says. The excavator’s new electronic management system (e-EPOS) communicates with the ECU engine and the CAN (controller area network) to assure that the engine and hydraulic systems share information. The LC-2 model also features a wider cab and automatic climate control.
