The Kobelco SK550DLC-10 is purpose-built to tear down and dismantle multi-story buildings. With a maximum reach of 90 feet, the unit has a three-piece separate boom demolition front and high-reach front options. The separate boom simplifies the demolition of lower and underground levels, while the ultra-long attachment allows the unit to demolish levels up to nine stories high. In addition, a 3-ton crusher tool on the ultra-long attachment and 5.3-ton crusher tool on the separate boom can be added.

The integrated two-part counterweight features a part that forms the case in which the second part is housed, giving users increased transportation options and easing assembly and disassembly.
