Mechanically sound · cosmetic wear disclosed. Sourced from 益阳市, China. 20 current photos available; walkaround video and extra angles can be recorded on inquiry.
We do not list specifications we have not personally cross-checked against the Kato HD820R OEM brochure for this exact variant. On your inquiry, we send the complete spec sheet (engine power / hydraulic flow / dimensions / dig reach / travel speed / fuel consumption) along with the 150-point inspection report.
We grade by measured fact, not by hope. The bars show our inspector's estimate of remaining service life per major system. Detailed wear photos and OEM-tool readouts are in the inspection report.
The timeline below traces this unit’s known service events. Where source-yard records are incomplete, we reconstruct typical service intervals based on hour count — and disclose this transparently.
First major service interval — engine oil, hydraulic filter, fuel filter replacement.
Mid-life service — coolant flush, final drive oil, swing gear lubrication.
Routine service — air filter, fuel filter, cabin filter, hydraulic oil sample analysis.
ExcaYard 150-point pre-export inspection — engine compression, hydraulic cycle test, undercarriage measurement, ECM data extraction.
The inspection note is shared on inquiry. Major findings, visible wear, current photo set, and any requested extra angles are reviewed before payment.
Some exporters quote low CIF then add discovery fees, doc fees, handling fees, lashing surcharges. Our CIF is the total — only port-side destination charges (controlled by your local broker, not us) are extra.

This 2012 Kato HD820R is a heavy-duty excavator with 8,800 hours, sourced from our Yiyang yard in Hunan Province, China. As a Grade B unit, it shows visible signs of operational use but remains mechanically sound for continued service. The 82-ton class machine is powered by an OEM engine, delivering reliable performance for large-scale earthmoving and mining tasks. Ideal for buyers seeking a cost-effective solution for demanding projects.
The Kato HD820R features a robust OEM engine with adequate power for heavy digging and lifting. It comes with a standard bucket suitable for general excavation. The hydraulic system maintains stable operation, and the undercarriage shows moderate wear consistent with its hours. Key components like the swing motor and travel motors are functional, though some seals may require attention. Weight of 82 tons provides stability in tough conditions.
Grade B: This excavator has been in regular operation and shows cosmetic wear including paint fading and minor dents. The engine starts reliably without smoke or unusual noise. Hydraulic functions are responsive, but some hoses show surface cracking and may need replacement. The bucket has edge wear and could benefit from hard-facing. Track tension is within spec, but bushings and sprockets show moderate wear. Overall, a working machine ready for projects with some deferred maintenance.
The Kato HD820R is a proven workhorse in the 80-ton class, known for durability in harsh environments. This model offers a balance of power and reliability, with parts availability through Kato's global network and aftermarket suppliers. For export markets, its simple mechanical design facilitates easier repairs by local technicians. The 2012 year model benefits from mature technology, avoiding complex emissions systems found in newer machines, reducing downtime risk. Cost-effective compared to European or Japanese equivalents.
Best suited for heavy construction, quarry operations, and large-scale earthmoving projects. Particularly recommended for markets in Africa (e.g., Nigeria, Ghana) and Southeast Asia (e.g., Indonesia, Philippines) where robust machines are valued and service infrastructure is developing. Also applicable in Latin America for mining support.
Shipping FOB Shanghai. Can be loaded in a 40ft open-top container (disassembled: boom, arm, cab removed) or via RoRo (roll-on/roll-off) vessel. Typical transit time: 25-30 days to West Africa, 15-20 days to SE Asia, 20-25 days to Middle East. We handle all export documentation, packing, and loading.
