Equipment Overview
The Kobelco LK270Z is a wheel loader built for construction and quarry work, current as the LK270Z-6 in Kobelco’s Japan-market wheel loader range. It delivers 152 kW (207 PS) and a 17,750 kg operating weight, suited to a 3.6 m³ bucket capacity with strong breakout force for demanding loading work.
Power comes from a Cummins QSC8.3 turbocharged, intercooled diesel engine, delivering 880 N·m of maximum torque through a 3-element, single-stage, single-phase torque converter paired with a full powershift automatic transmission. Front and rear independent hydraulically actuated wet disc brakes handle travel braking, and a mechanical spring-actuated system covers parking, with a 290 L fuel tank supporting extended working hours.
