FIAT Kobelco BME800G Technical Manual – OEM Factory Specifications for Backhoe Loaders

I’ve been turning wrenches on heavy equipment for twenty-eight years. I’ve seen what happens when a guy grabs a manual off some website that’s been scanned, photocopied, and resold until the torque values are illegible. That’s not what you get here. This FIAT Kobelco BME800G Technical Manual is a 20-page original factory print. It’s the same document that landed on the dealer’s desk when this machine was new. If you’re working on an 80-ton hydraulic crawler crane, you need the numbers straight. This manual gives them to you.

FIAT Kobelco BME800G Technical Manual: Core Contents

Twenty pages sounds thin until you see what’s in there. Every page is a reference table or a dimensional drawing. The manual opens with SPECIFICATIONS — engine, hydraulic system, boom hoisting, load hoisting. Then GENERAL DIMENSIONS on page 5. BOOM AND JIB ARRANGEMENTS on page 6. WORKING RANGES on page 7. SUPPLEMENTAL DATA on page 8. Then three separate LIFTING CAPACITIES sections on pages 9, 11, and 13, each for different configurations — clamshell, reduced weights, standard. After that, TRANSPORTATION PLAN on page 14 and PARTS AND ATTACHMENTS on page 17. That’s not padding. That’s the data you need to avoid buckled booms or tipped machines. You get base machine dimensions, working ranges, and load charts for every allowable configuration.

Specifications Section: HINO P11C-VC Engine and Hydraulic Systems

Page 4 lists the power plant: HINO P11C-VC, 4-cycle, water-cooled, direct injection, turbo, intercooler. Displacement 10.520 liters. Rated power 271 kW at 1,850 rpm. Max torque 1,470 N·m at 1,400 rpm. Stage IIIB and Interim Tier 4 compliant. Starter is 24 V – 6 kW. Radiator is corrugated type with thermostatic control. Air cleaner is dry type with replaceable paper element. Fuel filter is replaceable paper. Batteries are two 12 V x 136 Ah/5HR, series connected. Fuel tank capacity 400 liters. The hydraulic system uses three variable displacement piston pumps with full-flow control. Relief valve pressures: load hoist, boom hoist, and propel at 31.9 MPa, swing at 27.5 MPa, control at 5.4 MPa. Hydraulic tank capacity 440 liters. If you’re diagnosing a weak swing, first check that control pressure against the spec. Don’t guess.

Lifting Capacities: What You Need for Safe Operation

This machine lifts 80 metric tons at a 3.6-meter radius. Maximum boom length 54.9 meters. The lifting capacity tables on pages 9, 11, and 13 are broken down by boom length, jib length, and operating radius. Page 12 gives supplemental data for reduced weights — that’s for when you strip counterweight for transport. If you operate without referring to those tables, you’re asking for a load chart violation. The manual also covers clamshell operation on page 10 with its own capacity table. Every lift parameter is factory-certified. Remember: the OEM spec is the law when it comes to crane stability.

Boom and Jib Arrangements – Know Your Setup

Page 6 shows the boom and jib arrangements. The boom hoisting system uses a hydraulic motor through a planetary reducer with a spring-set, hydraulically released multiple-disc brake. Single drum grooved for 18 mm wire rope. Line speed ranges from 70 down to 2 meters per minute depending on load. Boom backstops required for all boom lengths. If you’re rigging a new boom section, that’s the reference. The manual also specifies the hoist rope diameters — 26 mm for the load hoist front and rear drums, with rope capacities up to 361 meters storage length. Don’t mix up the drum layouts; page 4 has the front drum PCD at 614 mm x 617 mm width.

Load Hoisting System: Front and Rear Drum Specs

Front and rear drums for load hoist are powered by hydraulic variable plunger motors driven through planetary reducers. Positive brake is a spring-set, hydraulically released multiple-disc mounted on the hoist motor and operated through a counter-balance valve. Drum lock is external ratchet. Front drum: 614 mm PCD x 617 mm wide, grooved for 26 mm wire rope. Working rope capacity 175 m, storage 361 m. Rear drum: same PCD and width, rope capacity 130 m working, 361 m storage. If you’re rewinding the hoist cable, those numbers are critical to avoid over-spooling.

Factory Print vs Aftermarket Copies: Know the Difference

I won’t name names, but I’ve bought aftermarket manuals that had missing pages and misprinted torque values. This one is an original OEM print. The pages are crisp, the tables are clear, and the specs are the same as what Kobelco released. Aftermarket shops often photocopy from a photocopy until the 10-digit numbers smear. Not here. You get the 20-page factory document, exactly as it was intended. If you want to understand the fundamentals of manual transmissions, see Manual Transmission — but this machine uses hydraulic drive. For more on manual transmission repair, check Manual Transmission. Two different contexts, but both useful knowledge when you switch between equipment.

• FIAT Kobelco 7055-3F Technical Manual – 24-Page Factory Specs
• FIAT Kobelco CK1600-II Technical Manual – 33-Page OEM Factory Specs

If you run multiple FIAT Kobelco machines, those manuals cover the same level of detail. The W80 is a 46-page document with similar engine and hydraulic specs. The 7055-3F and CK1600-II round out the lineup. But for the BME800G, this 20-page technical manual is the only factory document you need for setup, transport, and safe lifting operations.

FAQ – FIAT Kobelco BME800G Technical Manual

Q: How many pages is this manual?

A: 20 pages, all original factory content.

Q: Does it include wiring diagrams?

A: No. This is a technical manual focusing on specifications, dimensions, and lifting capacities. Wiring diagrams are not in this document. For electrical diagnostics you would need the separate service manual.

Q: Is this the same as the service manual?

A: No. A service manual covers disassembly and repair. This technical manual lists OEM specifications such as hydraulic pressures, engine data, and load charts. For a full service manual, you would need a different document. But for lifting operations and setup, this is the required reference.

Q: What are the lifting capacity page numbers?

A: Pages 9, 11, and 13 contain lifting capacity tables for standard, clamshell, and reduced weight configurations. Always consult those before making a lift.
