Wacker Neuson 6503 overview

Wacker Neuson 6503 features overview

Wacker Neuson is big in the compact class. And both models 6503/9503 2 keep their personality:
They are manoeuvrable and stable, particularly powerful and easy to operate. Their minimal overhang on the back makes shunting and working safe at all times.
2 New cab interior with ample head- and legroom and newly integrated storage areas. Also new: the stable
Joystick mounting, instrumentation assembly and pedals. Easy driver access thanks to wide and high door openings. The armrest can be folded right side

Engine / Driveline and transmission

SPEED AND ENGINEERING WORKING STRONGLY TOGETHER: SWIFTLY TO
THE RIGHT PLACE, TO SCHUEN WELL. Effi cient IN PERFORMANCE. With ENDURANCE. COMPACT BOUND OF FOLLOWING MANUEUVRABIL ITY AND ENERGY: THE WACKER NEUSON 6503 AND THE 9503 2 ARE THE TOP MODELS IN THE SAFEGUARD CLASS OF YOUR MOBILE EXCAVATORS.
Enlarge the field of play, make use of the manoeuverability and gain new flexibility: the key to success in the future is mobility.
Speedier excavator transport under its own power: the high performance drive train and particularly good off-road mobility make the 9503 2 and 6503 genuine high speed machines one of the fastest mobile excavators in their class: with 40 km/h top speed for the 9503 2 and 25 km/h for the 65, This excellent performance is achieved by powerful hydraulic systems operating at maximum efficiency and low fuel consumption. The 170 litre tank capacity of the 9503 2 and 83 litres of the 6503 guarantee an enormous operating radius. The automotive roading is based on the vehicle design for construction and
The driving diagram of the 9503 2 shows how
maximum power is available in every phase. Ideal balance for economical use and greatest mobility. Tractive
Wacker Neuson Factors:
High speed performance. Closed circle hydraulics with best energy balance on the 9503 model, The diesel engines comply with all noise and exhaust emission standards. 170 l tank capacity model 9503, 83 l tank volume model 65, 4_5 WACKER NEUSON SPEED
Wacker Neuson Factors 6503:
Simple and robust design. Large-capacity diesel engine with optimally matched hydraulic system. Highly economical and long service life. High operating comfort for the driver.
Stable. Fast. Agile:
The Wacker Neuson 6503/9503 2 is your workhorse in all situations.
THE WACKER NEUSON MOBILE EXCAVATORS 6503/9503 2 ARE POWERFUL AND
WELL PROVEN MULTIFUNCTIONAL MACHINES IN WHICH ALL WACKER NEUSON SKILLS ARE UNITED: A STEEL POWER SYSTEM WITH CONVINCING ENGINEERING; WITH TESTED COMPONENTS AND WITH INTELLIGENCE IN EVERY DETAIL.
SPACE FOR HIGHEST PRODUCTIVITY: EVERYTHING IS
FOR THE GREATEST MOBILITY, SPEECHED, INSTANT READING TO USE AND PRODUCTIVE INTERPLAY BETWEEN MAN AND MACHINES.
Intelligent performance management: The engines of sustainable cost effectiveness. Spaciousness and ergonomics pay for themselves: The cab design from Wacker Neuson.
Engine speed automatic after 5 seconds without movement, the engine automatically goes to idle. This reduces fuel consumption and noise. The particularly economical engines meet all applicable environmental obligations of TIER, ROPS, FOPS-certified safety concept. - Layout and design of the interior for an auto-like driving experience. - Wide entrance, grip handles. - Adjustable driver seat, joystick, arm rests and steering wheel. - 5-way adjustable driver's seat. - Control internal temperature, air conditioning as option. - Low operating noise.

Hydraulics

Round, harmonic and finely controllable
Arm movements. Full and economical development of performance. Protecting the machine. Relief for the driver.
The Load Sensing hydraulics bring quality of performance into play: safe and sensitive excavation quickly becomes routine for the 9503,
In addition, the 9503 2 LUDV pressure scale ensures optimal synchronisation of arm movements. This makes it possible to perform multiple movements simultaneously without loss of time or power: Complete precision and balance already from the first control impulse regardless of function and load. - Optimized work cycles for more power per unit of time. - Best performance development, exactly where it is especially needed. - Easyst handling and quick familiarity for professionals. - Additional hydraulics with hammer return tube as standard. - Highest reliability.
The load pressure independent through flow distribution (LUDV System)
ensures that each hydraulic cylinder is supplied with the same amount of oil, even under different loadings. The result: a constant working speed regardless of the load, optimal synchronisation of all movements and always the same movement of the joystick. This gives the driver a feeling for the machine particularly quickly. 6_7 WACKER NEUSON HYDRAULICS
Power control (6503).
The power control system ensures optimal utilization of the diesel engine performance. If pressure in the hydraulic system increases due to greater loads, the power control system ensures that the diesel engine is not overloaded by reducing the amount of discharge from the variable displacement pump. This keeps the engine rpm constant and ensures more efficiency. Several work movements can be performed simultaneously without a failure of the individual movements. Performance control thus assures high working efficiency making the diesel engine particularly durable.

Tyres / Tracks

The 6503 is unrivalled in compactness, power and superiority: The 9503 2 is the sum of the technical possibilities. Perfectly combined.
With special performance of the engine and hydraulics. Featuring swing arm and particularly large and tiltable cab for perfect access to maintenance. Equipped with balloon tires and levelling blade at the rear standard, double tyres as option. Its high stability is ensured by an optimal weight distribution. Hold-up rests and levelling blade on front and back can be delivered optionally. In case of double tyre in standard, the balloon Tires are available optional.
2 Mono arm / pivot arm for the
6503/9503, Sensitively operated arm system (mono and swing arm) for efficient excavation work at a depth of 4,2, 6503/9503 2 you can choose between balloon tyres and double tires.
4 The individually controllable brackets of the 9503 2 front and rear ensure a
stable standing even on difficult ground. Propping on curbs or sloping surfaces is secured giving full freedom of movement. 5 The 6503 levelling blade is fitted as standard rear. Optionally, the 9503 2 can be equipped with a levelling blade front or rear. Optional additional equipment. 8_9 WACKER NEUSON POWER UNITS
