Right, Rear, and Left Cameras with additional light-emitting diode (LED) Surround Lighting
Overview
Optional Right Rear and Left Camera system with additional LED surround lighting work together to provide the operator enhanced 270 degree visibility around the machine. All integrated into the main monitor.
Benefits
- Work confidently with enhanced visibility even in low light conditions
- Powerful LEDs cast a pool of light surrounding 270 degrees of the sides and rear of the machine. Cameras display surroundings to the operator in the main monitor
- LED front work lights and rear camera are still standard equipment

Hydraulic coupler ready option
Overview
Factory installed hydraulic plumbing all the way to the end of the arm. Coupler controls integrated into a switch in the cab. Quick and efficient coupler installation. Popular in the underground segment, couplers allow excavators to efficiently switch attachments and get more productive working hours each day.
- Ease of installation – pin on the coupler, connect the hydraulics, get to work.
- Compatible with multiple coupler manufacturers (see dealer for details).

Overview
P-Tier updates build on the proven G-Series design. Take front joint durability to new levels compared to G-Series.
- Grease point at arm tip for easy greasing and extended uptime.
- Better torque retention at the clamp reduces the likelihood of front hydraulic pipes moving.
- Redesigned boom foot bushings improve durability.
