At the 2014 GaLaBau trade fair, Liebherr is presenting the crawler excavator R 914 Compact, which supplements the product program of compact crawler excavators. The compact excavator was first presented at the 2013 Bauma trade fair in Munich (Germany). The design of this 15 tonne machine is based on the same concept as the A 914 Compact and A 918 Compact wheeled excavators that have already achieved market success.

With its 80 kW (109 hp) Deutz diesel engine, the R 914 Compact complies with the Stage IIIB exhaust emission limits without needing a diesel particulate filter. The maintenance-free oxidating catalytic converter not only reduces emissions but keeps operating costs low as well. A particulate filter is available ex-factory as an option.

The dimensions of the R 914 Compact permit a tail swing radius of only 1,550 millimetres.

For the undercarriage of the R 914 Compact, which has a track width of 2,000 mm and a wheelbase of 3,000 mm, steel track pads are available in 500 mm, 600 mm and 700 mm widths. For easily damaged sub-surfaces or when working on asphalt or concrete surfaces, 500 mm wide rubber-coated track pads can be supplied for the standard steel tracks.

The choice of working equipment for the R 914 Compact includes a luffing boom, a boom that can be repositioned laterally and either standard or lateral-shift gooseneck booms. From the four dipper arm lengths – 2.05 m, 2.25 m, 2.45 m or 2.65 m – the most suitable combination of outreach and tearout force can be found.

At the 2015 Maskin Expo, Liebherr is presenting the crawler excavator R 914 Compact, which supplements the product program of compact crawler excavators. The compact excavator was first presented at the 2013 Bauma in Munich (Germany). The design of this 15 tonne machine features the same concept as the A 914 Compact and A 918 Compact wheeled excavators.

With its 80 kW (109 hp) Deutz diesel engine, the R 914 Compact complies with the Stage IIIB exhaust emission limits without needing a diesel particulate filter. The maintenance-free oxidating catalytic converter not only reduces emissions but keeps operating costs low as well. A particulate filter is available ex-factory as an option. This engine makes efficient use of fuel and develops ample torque.

The dimensions of the R 914 Compact permit a tail swing radius of only 1,550 millimetres. Thanks to its high grabbing force and general performance level, this is the ideal machine for landscaping, road works, drainage and all construction-site work that has to be carried out within a limited space.

For the undercarriage of the R 914 Compact, which has a track width of 2,000 mm and a wheelbase of 3,000 mm, steel track pads are available in 500 mm, 600 mm and 700 mm widths. For easily damaged sub-surfaces or when working on asphalt or concrete surfaces, 500 mm wide rubber-coated track pads can be supplied for the standard steel tracks. Attaching them instead of using rubber tracks keeps operating costs low, since these track pads can be easily be replaced individually during servicing work.

To increase load capacity and when grading work is carried out, the undercarriage of the R 914 Compact can be equipped with a strong, solid blade; this includes standard load retaining valves. This blade is absolutely maintenance-free and needs no lubrication.

The choice of working equipment for the R 914 Compact includes a luffing boom, a boom that can be repositioned laterally and either standard or lateral-shift gooseneck booms. From the four dipper arm lengths – 2.05 m, 2.25 m, 2.45 m or 2.65 m – the most suitable combination of outreach and tear-out force can be found.
