Long Carriage Stability with Japanese Engineering
The Sumitomo SH130LC-6 is a long carriage variant designed to deliver improved stability, greater lifting capability and enhanced digging performance for demanding civil and construction applications across New Zealand. Built in Japan and equipped with Sumitomo’s SPACE 5+ engine system and highly efficient SIH S+ hydraulic technology, the SH130LC-6 offers smooth, responsive operation and excellent fuel efficiency for contractors requiring a reliable 13 tonne excavator. The LC undercarriage provides increased operating weight options up to 13,900 kg, delivering reduced ground pressure and improved balance for heavier attachments or uneven terrain.
Power & Performance.
Powered by an electronically controlled ISUZU engine, the SH130LC-6 delivers strong torque, fast cycle times and reduced fuel consumption. Multiple working modes, including SP, H and A, allow operators to match output to the task, while automatic idling and power boost functions help optimise fuel use and digging force.
Long Carriage Design.
The long carriage design improves machine stability during lifting, grading and full reach operations. Reinforced boom and arm structures, durable undercarriage components and Sumitomo’s EMS lubrication system extend service life and reduce maintenance requirements. The LC configuration delivers stronger lift performance and additional operating weight capacity compared with the standard model.
Operator Comfort.
Inside the ROPS certified cabin, operators benefit from excellent visibility, reduced noise levels and a clear, full colour display providing real time machine data, ECO guidance and working mode selection. Improved ergonomics, fluid cab mounts and simplified access to service points support safe, efficient operation throughout long shifts.
The SH130LC-6 is an ideal choice for New Zealand contractors requiring a stable, fuel efficient and highly capable excavator for lifting, trenching, roading and general civil works. With proven Japanese engineering and nationwide support from AB Equipment, it delivers long term value and dependable performance.
