Four-Way Breaker Hose
The R18 features a durable four-way breaker hydraulic hose assembly that expands attachment versatility, enabling simultaneous hookup of multiple auxiliary tools. Built with reinforced fittings and routed return ports, the system includes a reserved mower return line for easy integration of a grass-cutting attachment. This plumbing layout simplifies connection, maintains stable oil flow, and reduces heat buildup during prolonged auxiliary use. Rugged construction resists abrasion and hose failure on tough jobs, while the dedicated mower return ensures reliable hydraulic performance for cutting applications.
Smart cockpit high-definition large screen
The smart large screen can display the various operating parameters of the excavator in real time, such as engine status, oil pressure, hydraulic system status, fuel consumption and temperature, etc., helping the operator to control the working status of the equipment at any time.
