Komatsu PC26MR-5

This compact excavator is built for confined construction work

This compact excavator suits digging, trenching and material handling where space is limited. The machine combines a compact layout with equipment relevant for daily site work. Operating weight is 2,790 kg, which supports transport planning and ground assessment. Overall width is 1,500 mm, giving a narrow machine footprint on busy sites. Length is 4,045 mm and construction height is 2,560 mm. These dimensions make the machine relevant for urban work, utilities and small foundation tasks.

The machine uses a mono boom and a long arm configuration. This setup supports controlled digging and stable bucket movement in restricted areas. Skidsteer steering also supports movement where access routes are narrow. For contractors handling varied tasks, this layout gives useful flexibility during excavation and positioning.

The operator layout supports controlled daily machine use

The cab is enclosed and fitted with heating, which supports work during colder periods. Joystick controls are included for direct and precise hydraulic input. The machine also has two proportional lines, which are relevant when attachment functions require measured oil flow. An outer rear view mirror improves rearward awareness from the cab. A radio is included as part of the operator environment.

This configuration is relevant for companies that need a compact excavator for repeated tasks across changing job conditions. The enclosed cab supports work in exposed weather, while the control layout supports fine input during excavation, grading and attachment use.

The hydraulic setup supports attachment use and lifting control

Hydraulics for a quick coupler are included. This supports faster attachment changes when the machine moves between tasks. The machine also has hydraulic pressure keeping valves on the boom and on the stick. These valves are relevant where controlled holding function matters during lifting and placement work.

Single acting locking hydraulics are included for cab machines with two lines and a long arm. This setup adds useful context for buyers assessing compatibility with hydraulic tools and coupler arrangements. For trenching buckets, grading buckets and similar attachments, the installed hydraulic equipment provides a clear operational basis.

The undercarriage and drive layout support site handling

A front dozer blade is fitted to the machine. This supports backfilling, surface levelling and added stability during digging. The transmission is hydrostatic, which supports smooth travel control and precise repositioning on site. Together with the compact chassis, this layout suits work where the machine needs frequent short movements between digging points.

For contractors working around buildings, pavements or service lines, machine size is a practical factor. The stated width, height and length provide a direct basis for route checks, trailer planning and access assessment before delivery.

Safety and visibility equipment support work around people and structures

The machine is fitted with a back up alarm and a reverse camera. This supports awareness during reversing in confined working zones. A battery main switch is also installed, which is relevant for isolation during service and shutdown routines.

Lighting includes four LED work lights. Two are mounted at the front of the roof, one at the rear of the roof and one on the boom. This layout supports visibility around the machine and at the digging area. A magnetic rotating beacon is fitted on the cab for added site signalling.

Monitoring and machine data support fleet administration

Komtrax monitoring is included. This gives companies a useful starting point for machine oversight and fleet follow up. For B2B buyers, that matters when uptime, location control and service planning are part of daily operations.

Overall, the machine presents a compact excavator format with practical equipment for excavation, handling and attachment work. Weight, dimensions, hydraulics, blade, lighting and monitoring form a balanced specification for companies assessing a machine for regular construction and utility tasks.
