Case 170C overview

Engine

Case 1080B

With 44,070 pounds (20 031 kg) of operating weight, a choice of fuel-saving engines and high-performance hydraulics, you have built-in efficiency that can result in increased earnings for you.


Largest of the Delta Series

The Case 220B weighs in at approximately 95,460 pounds (43 270 kg) to make it a top contender in the 45-ton class. Because of its power, rugged design and capacity, it is especially suited for work in heavy rock, shale, coral, caliche and mass excavations.


Super performance

Super performance is founded upon the rugged strength of the Delta Series undercarriage—built to take the toughest conditions in stride. It continues with ready availability through minimum maintenance—you increase uptime and productivity on every site.


Hydraulic and electronic system

Constant flow, variable pressure hydraulics

offer smooth, independent or simultaneous control of all work functions as well as a fast hoist feature. The system also provides always-available auxiliary hydraulics. The 360° swing system has positive operator control with a disc brake for sure lock when swinging or transporting.


The variable-flow hydraulic system

The variable-flow hydraulic system includes a multi-body, four-section pump for simultaneous and independent command of boom, crowd, bucket, swing and travel functions. As with all Delta Series excavators, a heavy-lift feature is standard. Extra crowd power is automatically delivered when you need it. At the bucket, 53,760 pounds (239 136 N) of breakout force crack-out the most stubborn materials.


Always available auxiliary hydraulics

Always available auxiliary hydraulics are a feature of the 1085B's summarized hydraulics system. In addition to the independent or simultaneous operation of swing, crowd, lift and tool functions, two auxiliary spools are available for hydraulically-driven attachments.


Upper Structure

Maintenance-free Rollers and Idlers

in the crawler-tractor undercarriage as well as remote lube systems for boom, stick and swing gear simplify daily maintenance and help you achieve consistent high performance.


Cab

Operator efficiency

is increased and fatigue minimized by a cab that offers clear visibility of the work area, as well as a fully adjustable seat and conveniently located low-effort controls. It all adds up to comfort and convenience that can help to make long days seem shorter.
