Before you order: check the interface

The weight class of the Liebherr R 966 Litronic sizes the attachment. It does not tell you the pin diameter, the pin spacing or the stick width, and those decide whether an attachment fits. Measure them on the machine, or send us the measurements of the bucket it runs today.

Heavy excavators dig rock, load trucks and work in quarries, so wear decides the bucket as much as capacity does. Rock and reinforced buckets carry thicker wear steel, teeth and side cutters, and the bucket is sized to the trucks it loads and to the density of the material.DBS - engineered rock bucket for excavator

  1. Measure the diameter of both bucket pins.
  2. Measure the distance between the pin centres.
  3. Measure the inside width between the stick ears.
  4. If the machine runs a quick coupler, note its make and type.

What the R 966 Litronic figures mean for its attachments

  • The main pump delivers up to 820 l/min at 350 bar. That is the pump output of the whole machine, not the flow an attachment gets.
  • Liebherr lists this quick coupler for it: Sistema de engate rápido hidráulico. The bracket on every attachment has to match the coupler.
  • It digs down to 7,550 mm. That is the deepest trench it can open.
  • Its maximum reach is 11,950 mm.
  • It dumps at up to 8,050 mm, so a truck or skip side has to sit below that height.
  • Liebherr offers arms from 2,600 to 3,000 mm. A longer arm reaches further, a shorter one handles a heavier bucket.
  • Liebherr lists buckets from 1,950 to 2,450 mm wide for this machine.
  • Liebherr lists bucket capacities from 3 to 5.5 m³.
  • Liebherr gives a lifting capacity of 21,800 kg. Check a heavy grab or hammer, plus its load, against the full load chart.
  • For transport it measures 12,850 x 4,495 x 3,900 mm (length, width, height).
  • Engine power is 320 kW.
