30 Ton Used Hydraulic Excavator Doosan DX300LC Second Hand Crawler Excavator with 1.4 m3 Bucket and 5700 Working Hours

Here is a Doosan DX300LC second hand crawler hydraulic excavator from a Korean aggregates operation, showing 5,700 hours on a 2018 machine. The DL08 six cylinder engine and the main hydraulic pump are original, and the long undercarriage of the LC variant gives the stability needed when the bucket is fully extended over a truck body. Thirty tons with a 1.4 cubic metre bucket puts this machine squarely in the production class where cost per ton drops sharply.

• Thirty Ton Production Class: A 1.4 cubic metre bucket loads thirty ton trucks in four to five passes, cutting cost per cubic metre against smaller machines on the same haul road.
• Doosan DL08 Engine: A well proven six cylinder diesel with simple service access and parts availability through Doosan dealers and independent suppliers in export markets.
• Long Undercarriage Stability: The LC track frame improves fore and aft stability during full reach loading and lifting, reducing tipping risk on soft or uneven pit floors.
• Korean Fleet Maintenance: Fixed interval servicing with documented filter and oil changes, and an hour meter reading that matches the maintenance log.
• Sound Structure: Boom, stick and carbody magnaflux checked with no cracks or repair welding, and cab mounts original with no visible fatigue.
• Attractive Capital Cost: Korean build quality at a price noticeably below equivalent Japanese thirty ton machines, with strong parts support across Africa and the Middle East.

Quarry face loading, aggregate pit operation, mass excavation, road subgrade works and large foundation pits are the everyday duties. Fleets pair the DX300LC with thirty ton articulated trucks so that cycle times match and neither truck nor excavator waits. Where a contractor needs to lift production without adding a second face, moving from a twenty ton machine to this class is usually the most capital efficient step available.

Our workshop tested hydraulic pressure at both pumps, cylinder drift, swing bearing backlash and undercarriage wear, and recorded engine blow by with dated photographs. Hydraulic oil was sampled for water and metal content with normal results. Cold start is clean, working temperature is stable under load, and the diagnostic monitor reports no active fault codes.

Each DX300LC is pressure washed, drained of residual fuel and photographed from twelve angles before loading. Large units normally travel by bulk vessel or on a flat rack with the boom and stick removed and separately blocked, while compact machines load into a 40HQ container. Cab glass, hydraulic cylinders and the slew ring area are wrapped and the unit is lashed to ISO anchor points. Loading report, vessel name and stowage photographs reach you within 48 hours of departure so your broker can pre-clear the cargo.

Every DX300LC completes a 42 point pre-shipment inspection covering engine blow by, hydraulic main relief pressure at both pumps, cylinder drift, swing bearing backlash, track gauge and shoe wear, plus full electrical function. Findings are issued as a signed inspection sheet with date stamped photographs. Each machine leaves our yard with a 12 month powertrain warranty on engine and hydraulic pump, and we hold fast moving filters, seals and undercarriage parts for express dispatch to your nearest port.
