Questions we are asked
Questions buyers ask us about this particular XCMG XS223J.
About the XCMG XS223J
Would you recommend the XCMG XS223J to a contractor?+
Yes, if your work is earthworks and roads. The XS223J is a heavy, simple, cheap to run machine, and 660 hours means the drum bearings and the pads are nowhere near needing attention.
What should I use the XCMG XS223J for?+
Compacting subgrade, fill and base layers on road, highway and large civil jobs, where the layer depth needs real weight behind the drum.
Can I get filters and parts for the XCMG XS223J locally?+
XCMG parts are inexpensive and quick to get hold of, and the Weichai engine shares components with a huge range of other machines, which keeps consumables cheap.
Is the hours on this XCMG XS223J accurate?+
It reads 660 hours and we will send a photograph. The pad wear and the drum condition should agree with that, and you are welcome to look closely at both.
Is the XCMG XS223J still in the yard?+
Yes. Message us to confirm, and tell us your timing, because we can usually hold a roller for a short while during inspection.
Price and payment
What does the XCMG XS223J sell for?+
USD 33,000 FOB Qingdao, as is, for the machine ready to load at the port. Shipping is quoted once we know your route.
Where can I find a XCMG XS223J at this sort of price?+
Chinese rollers are cheap to begin with and buying from the yard removes another layer of cost. At USD 33,000 with 660 hours, the price per working hour left in the machine is very low.
Who do I send money to for the XCMG XS223J?+
This roller is invoiced through Beaumont Investment Group, LLC in the United States. Nothing is asked of you before the written terms are agreed.
If I need two XCMG XS223J units, can you do that?+
Yes. If you are equipping a road contract and need several rollers, that is normal work for us and usually improves the price per machine.
Shipping the XCMG XS223J
How does a XCMG XS223J get from your yard to my port?+
A 22 ton roller travels on a flat rack or a bulk vessel because the drum will not pass through a container door. We confirm which after checking your route.
What does delivery add to the price of the XCMG XS223J?+
It depends on your route and the sailing. Rollers are heavy for their size, so the weight matters as much as the dimensions when the freight is worked out.
Checking it before you buy
Will you film the XCMG XS223J for me before I buy?+
Yes. Ask for the drum, the pads, the articulation joint or the cab and we will get pictures out to you quickly.
How do I verify the condition of the XCMG XS223J?+
Yes. You or an inspector of your choosing are welcome in Qingdao, and we will run the machine for the inspection.
Can you suggest another machine instead of the XCMG XS223J?+
If 22 tons is heavier than your layers need, the 14 ton machine will do the job for less money. Tell us the layer depth and we will say which.
