The new Doosan DX210WMH-5 wheel material handler provides scrap and recycling professionals with improved fuel efficiency, versatility and productivity. Designed to work in a variety of scrap-handling applications, Doosan DX210WMH-5 material handlers excel at working in scrap yards, recycling facilities, solid waste centers and transfer stations.

Manufactured from a proven and tested excavator model, Doosan DX210WMH-5 material handlers are factory fitted with standard hydraulic cab risers for increased visibility, straight boom and drop-nose arm for optimal performance and improved machine guarding for maximum uptime. Straight booms improve reach and lift height for better material placement. Drop-nose arms provide enhanced grapple and magnet access into containers, trucks, and railcars. Features such as dual-boom cylinders and under-mount arm cylinder placement provide excellent lifting capabilities.

Product enhancements for the DX210WMH-5 material handler include the following:
– Floor pedal: adds an optional method for operators to activate two-way auxiliary hydraulics
– Ergonomic joystick: improves operator comfort and ease of use
– Relocated rear camera: enhances rear visibility
– Camera monitor: allows operators to monitor machine information while the camera is on
– Alternator upgrade: provides 80 amps for improved performance
– Emergency stop relocated: makes it easier for operators to reach on the seat base
– Auto shutdown: saves valuable diesel fuel when the machine is not working
Options available for Doosan DX210WMH-5 material handlers include:
– V-Shape side guard: adds extra protection to the doors and exterior of the machine
– Solid tires: improves tire life and provides long-lasting performance
– Generator set: generates power for use with a magnet attachment

A 5/8-cubic-yard grapple is approved for use with the DX210WMH-5 and features a semi-closed tine design for a firm grasp on most materials. The 360-degree hydraulic rotating four-tine grapple helps increase machine versatility and productivity in material-handling applications. The grapple’s tines are designed with AR400 high-strength, abrasion-resistant steel for increased durability, and the tine tips are replaceable for easier maintenance. Connecting a grapple to a Doosan material handler is fast and easy with a hose kit and mount. Two-pump hydraulic flow provides the power to operate the grapple.
A magnet is also approved for the DX210WMH-5 to pick up and place smaller scrap metal. The magnet is powered by an optional generator, which energizes power to the magnet when picking up metal.

The DX210WMH-5 manages the balance of fuel consumption and machine power to working conditions with four selectable power modes, including:
– Power+ mode: delivers the fastest workgroup speeds and greater power for demanding material moving applications
– Power mode: provides exceptional power and superior performance for tough heavy-lifting, quick truck-loading, and fast travel speed
– Standard mode: enhances the machine’s fuel consumption while delivering high performance in everyday lifting and moving of material
– Economy mode: helps reduce fuel consumption for low-demand applications and slows down machine movement for conditions that require more precise movements
In addition, the new DX210WMH-5 material handler features a Lifting work mode. The Lifting work mode provides increased pump torque, low engine rpm, and an automatic power boost to improve precision when lifting and placing materials.
