Buying brief: Lingsheng 12166
The Lingsheng 12166 is a wheeled digging excavator in the compact class (under 8 t), with an operating weight of 5700kg, a bucket capacity of 0.23m3/0.30m3, and a rated power of 42KW/48KW/2300rpm. This size suits small-scale construction, landscaping, utility work, and trenching where space is limited. The wheeled undercarriage allows travel between sites at speeds up to 30km/h. The max dig depth of 3450mm is suitable for shallow excavations. The machine is easy to transport and maneuver. On site, the wheeled undercarriage and this size behave with good mobility, but the buyer should weigh tyre condition and type, steering modes, and the travel lock.
Stability is important for digging, so check the outriggers if fitted. Attachments affect balance. The turning radius and travel speed influence productivity in tight spaces. Regular checks of tyres and undercarriage are needed. Before paying, inspect the engine for leaks, smoke, and service history. Check the hydraulic system for leaks, hose condition, and cylinder operation.
Examine pins and bushes for wear on the boom and bucket linkage. Inspect wheel hubs for play and leaks, and test the brakes. Look at the structure for cracks or repairs, particularly around the boom pivot and undercarriage. These checks help assess the machine's condition. Shipping this size normally uses a container or flat rack, depending on the unit's dimensions and the destination port. The loading method is decided by the actual dimensions, weight, and port facilities.
Container shipping is common for compact machines that fit within standard dimensions, while flat rack suits units that exceed container limits. RoRo may be used for wheeled machines that can be driven on. Breakbulk is less common for this size. The buyer should confirm dimensions and port capabilities.
