Overview

CX490D Tier 4 Final excavators have improved hydraulics and come loaded with features to help operators work quicker and more comfortably. Standard features include a control pattern selector, a Free-Swing feature for improved craning, engine and oil sample ports, additional guardrails, a heated air-ride seat and more. Not to mention an efficient Tier 4 Final SCR solution that helps you get more from every tank. Altogether, it helps you do more, more quickly.

Features

Productivity

Achieve up to 9% faster cycle times and greater power thanks to an improved hydraulic system with an electronically controlled hydraulic pump, a larger control valve and solenoid valve. Craning an uneven load? Activate the standard Free-Swing feature for improved control. Working at night? Opt for the LED light package. To help tailor the machine to the operator and the application, a control pattern selector and power mode selector both come standard.

Fuel Efficiency

An SCR solution lets the engine run at peak performance to provide full throttle response throughout the work cycle while still meeting Tier 4 Final emissions regulations and providing up to 5% greater fuel efficiency. And without a Diesel Particulate Filter to replace, SCR is simple too. Simply add a little Diesel Exhaust Fluid during fill up and go.

Comfort and Visibility

The improved cab provides comfort like never before. There’s more entry room and foot space. The air-ride seat is larger to reduce pressure points, slides fore/aft, tilts, offers “lie-flat” reclining, has an adjustable lumbar system and a built-in heater. An innovative armrest design adjusts independently of the console while still ensuring joysticks are always comfortably within reach. Even the pedals can adjust ±22° to suit personal preference. There’s also a Bluetooth radio and climate control system that responds to sunlight. The 7" widescreen color monitor provides a constant rear camera view for increased awareness.

Serviceability

When you invest in CASE equipment, you need it to last. We make it easy. D Series excavators are no exception. A standard oil sample port allows for quick visual checks of engine oil and hydraulic oil while grouped service points, tilt-out coolers and auto-locking side panels that stay open make it easy to perform routine maintenance. We even added handrails to make it easier to get around the machine.
