The ESH 11.75 dragline, which features an 11m3 bucket capacity and 75m long boom, will be equipped with digital controls and a centralised automatic lubrication system using Lincoln components. The machines superstructure was reinforced and various changes were made to basic mechanisms, such as hoist and drag winches, swing gear and walking mechanism, filters and the ventilation plant shelter to increase the service life, reduce time and maintenance costs and increase the efficiency of the dragline.
