With an operating weight of 70,500 – 70,960 kg the 970E combines unbeatable performance with high visibility and operator comfort and safety to excel in heavy-weight applications.

Powered by the latest QSX15 Cummins engine, the 970E delivers maximum torque output and achieves higher breakout force at lower engine speeds. The powertrain is perfectly matched with LiuGong’s advanced hydraulics to deliver faster swing speeds and cycle times every shift.

With heavy duty rollers, reinforced idler frame and an optional full track guard, we make sure that the undercarriage is extra tough to maximise productivity and eliminate the risk of unplanned downtime.

With the 970E we put the operator’s safety first with a certified ROPS and FOPS cab. The cab is also fully pressurized and climate-controlled to create a cleaner, quieter and safer workplace.

See more and do more in safety is the concept behind the 970. With a large glass surface area, spacious cab, intelligently positioned mirrors and rear-view camera, the 970E delivers on its promise by giving you the best view of the site, from every angle.
