This crawler excavator supports earthmoving and material handling on site
This Komatsu crawler excavator is built for digging, handling, and general site work. The machine combines a mono boom with operating weight of 18,885 kg. That setup supports stable work in construction, utility, and infrastructure projects. The transport dimensions are 8,690 mm in length, 2,790 mm in width, and 3,140 mm in height. These figures help buyers assess access, transport planning, and site fit before deployment.
The machine suits contractors who need controlled excavation and consistent hydraulic response. A mono boom is relevant where straightforward geometry and clear front visibility matter in daily work. It also provides a familiar layout for trenching, loading, grading, and attachment use. For fleet planning, the stated dimensions and machine weight give a factual basis for matching this excavator to transport equipment and working conditions.
The engine setup supports daily operation under current emissions requirements
Power comes from a Komatsu SAA4D107E-5 Stage V engine rated at 122 hp. The engine uses a 4 cylinder diesel configuration. Stage V aftertreatment includes a diesel particulate filter and SCR with AdBlue. This gives buyers clear information when evaluating the machine for projects with defined emissions requirements.
Automatic idle is included in the engine setup. Autostop is also part of the configuration. These functions are relevant where the machine works through repeated pauses during loading, trenching, or attachment changes. A diesel filling pump with autostop is fitted as well. This supports controlled refuelling during service intervals and daily preparation.
The hydraulic configuration is prepared for controlled attachment work
The excavator is equipped with HCU C hydraulics on the mono boom. It also includes the Komatsu Tool Control System on one circuit for oil pressure and oil flow. This matters for companies using hydraulic attachments that require defined settings during operation. It provides a clearer basis for matching the machine with tools used in demolition, handling, or utility work.
Hydraulics for a quick coupler are included. This supports quicker attachment changes during a working day. Hydraulic pressure keeping valves are fitted on both boom and stick. These components are relevant where load holding and controlled movement are important during lifting and placement tasks. For contractors working with several tools on one site, this hydraulic specification adds practical value without complicating the machine layout.
The cab layout supports control during long working days
The driver cab includes heating and climate control. A joystick setup is part of the operating station. The seat is a Grammer Evolution air suspended seat with vibration damping, ventilation, and heating. These details matter for operators who spend many hours in the machine and need a consistent working position through the day.
The cab also includes a radio with Bluetooth and DAB+. An outer rear view mirror is fitted. These features do not define digging performance, but they support daily use and operator awareness. For companies comparing excavators at this size, the cab equipment helps show how the machine is prepared for routine site work across changing conditions.
The visibility and monitoring equipment support work around people and obstacles
KomVision camera system is included in the machine specification. A back up alarm is also fitted. These features are relevant for excavation and handling in tighter site layouts where visibility behind the machine matters. A battery main switch is included as well, which supports service routines and machine isolation when required.
Lighting equipment includes rear LED light on the cab roof, four front LED roof lights, two LED lights on the boom, and two LED lights at the boom foot. A rotating beacon is also installed. This configuration supports work in low light conditions and helps illuminate the working area around the attachment and upper structure.
The machine specification gives a clear basis for fleet assessment
Komtrax monitoring is part of the equipment package. This gives fleet managers a direct point of reference when assessing machine oversight and operating follow up. For companies managing several excavators across different projects, monitoring functions can be relevant when planning service and machine use.
Overall, this Komatsu excavator is configured for contractors who need a crawler machine for digging, lifting related handling, and attachment based work. The Stage V engine, tool control hydraulics, and prepared cab support practical use on active sites. Weight, dimensions, and installed equipment give a factual basis for comparing the machine with existing fleet requirements and planned applications.
