Doosan DX — the number is the tonnage class, LC means the extended track
The "Doosan Hydraulic Excavator" bucket lists 29 models of the DX line, spanning 70 to 278 kW and 13.9 to nearly 53 tonnes of operating weight — from a mid-size tracked excavator to a large jobsite machine. The sample models DX140LC, DX225LC, DX300LC, DX350LC and DX420LC show the consistent naming pattern.

At Doosan, the DX prefix is followed directly by a number that roughly reflects the machine's operating weight in tonnes — a DX225LC sits in the 22-to-23-tonne class. The LC suffix denotes an extended and widened crawler undercarriage, giving more footprint and thus stability during lifting work as well as better flotation on soft ground; models without the suffix run on the narrower standard gauge.
In practice that means two Doosan excavators with a similar number, one with LC and one without, differ mainly in undercarriage width rather than in displacement or engine power.
For a used excavator in this class, check the track rollers, chain tension and the bucket and arm bushings — the most common wear points under continuous jobsite use. A test run at full hydraulic load also shows whether the pump and valves still deliver full cylinder force.
In short: on the DX line, the number reveals the rough tonnage class and the LC suffix the undercarriage width, without needing to consult a spec sheet.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
