LiuGong Introduces New D-Series Crawler Excavators
Guangxi, PR China – March 21, 2011 – LiuGong’s new D-Series crawler excavators – models 915D,
925D and 936D - are on display at LiuGong’s largest-ever ConExpo showcase in the North Hall,
booth 1041.
LiuGong's D-Series is the company’s new generation of intelligent crawler excavators featuring
computer-aided systems for greater operating efficiency, lower fuel consumption and overall
reliability. LiuGong’s commanding ‘smart’ hydraulic systems produce standout, on-demand breakout
power, while LiuGong’s rugged new frame design and improved undercarriage components make the
D-Series excavators stable, durable and ready to tackle any task a North American contractor may
have.
LiuGong’s Computer Aided Power Control system (CAPC) automatically matches the D-Series
excavator’s hydraulic output flow to the application. At the touch of a button, LiuGong's new power
boost feature instantly increases the excavator’s digging force up to 10-percent for 10 seconds, then
resets back to normal functions awaiting the next task. The CAPC also allows the operator to select
optimal power levels for peak performance capacity with the best fuel economy. The 922D and 936D
feature a no time-limit heavy lift system that when activated, increases hydraulic pressure to the
attachment cylinders while simultaneously reducing attachment speed for better control during lifting
operation. Additionally, LiuGong excavators are equipped with a unique emergency bypass switch to
enable the machines to operate indefinitely in the event of an electrical problem with the main CPU or
its related components. Fuel consumption, emissions and noise are supplemented by LiuGong's
auto-idle function that automatically lowers the excavator’s engine speed if there is no operation
detected for 5 seconds, or the operator can choose the one-touch decal function.

-MORELiuGong's new rigid x-type crawler car bodies on the D-Series crawler excavators distribute
load stress throughout the frame. A larger beam section in the upper frame improves the excavator’s
strength, durability and stability by creating a better center of gravity. Oil-sealed track rollers, carrier
rollers and idlers on the undercarriage provide outstanding durability in rugged conditions. Wide
trackpads of up to 32-inches afford greater flotation and stability on soft ground conditions.
Standard rock guards and vertical strips protect the excavator’s arm from rock and debris damage.
During operations, LiuGong's easy-to-read LCD instrument panel displays 20 different machine
control functions. The self-monitoring control system reads engine speed, fluid pressures and
temperatures, lubricant status, fuel capacity and alerts the operator if a function exceeds its
parameter, thus preventing service issues from becoming downtime setbacks. Maintenance on
LiuGong's D-Series crawler excavators is safe and simple with ground-level side access panels to
hydraulic pumps and engine filters.
Operators will appreciate LiuGong’s emphasis on workstation comfort and safety in the new DSeries crawler excavators. Reinforced frames and silicon shock absorbers cushion impact and
vibrations in LiuGong's deluxe, sound suppressed, climate controlled cabs. Operator wellbeing and
efficiency are enhanced with adjustable suspension seats, a multiple and positionable-vent large
capacity filtered air-conditioning system, a tinted sunroof and AM/FM/MP3 radio. Pilot controls with a
pattern changer feature allow the operator to control the D-Series excavator’s functions with less
fatigue and more accurate control of the arm and bucket. Back up alarms and flashing beacons on
the D-Series excavators assist jobsite safety, while rear-view mirrors provide a wide view of the
operating area.
LiuGong’s factory installed 2-way auxiliary hydraulic circuit configuration supports additional
attachments such as rock thumbs, hammers and shears.
LiuGong’s new 915D mid-size crawler excavator is powered by a 102 net horsepower
Cummins 4-cylinder Tier 3 engine and reaches travel speeds of up to 3.4 miles per hour. With a max

digging depth of 19 feet 3 inches, the 915D excels in residential and commercial site prep. The 915D
offers an optional two-way dozer blade for back fill and leveling operations.
-MORELiuGong’s new 922D production class crawler excavator offers an electronically controlled,
turbocharged Cummins 6-cylinder 142 net horsepower Tier 3 engine, and is the perfect workhorse for
road and highway applications. The 922D arrives with a standard 1.31 cubic yard capacity, 43-inch
wide bucket.
The powerful new 936D model, LiuGong’s largest crawler excavator, features a 260 net
horsepower, electronically controlled turbocharged Cummins 6-cylinder Tier 3 engine. The 936D’s 35’
9” ground level reach and 33’7” max dig height makes the 936D an ideal machine for demolition and
forestry applications. The 936D’s 2.09 cubic yard capacity, 57-inch wide standard bucket lifts up to
18,869 pounds on side at a 20-degree radius.
