2300XPC GPL9762 20

The WA320-8, a mid-size wheel loader designed to excel across various applications, including agriculture, waste management, and residential job sites. This versatile machine is well-suited for tasks in multiple industries and allows for easy attachment changes to enhance its adaptability.

Key features include:

  • Easy operation with traction control modes, ensuring optimal performance in different operating conditions.
  • Long-lasting brake life facilitated by a simple one-pedal operation, ensuring reliability and durability.
  • Impressive break-out force, providing the necessary power for demanding tasks.
  • Versatility to adapt to changing job site needs, making it a valuable tool for diverse applications and attachment changes.

Product Features and benefits:

  1. Enhanced Control with HST: Minimize wheel slippage and enhance tire life with a variable speed traction control system. The auto-mode feature ensures automatic adjustments without operator input, providing stability and control in various working conditions.
  2. Versatile PZ Linkage with High Breakout Force: The WA270 Wheel Loader features a Parallel-Z (PZ) linkage, delivering powerful breakout force and stability. The parallel-lift linkage with a large break-out force and auto tilt-in feature simulates a Z-bar, aiding material retention and facilitating efficient job completion.
  3. Powerful Performance with Low Fuel Consumption: Save fuel without compromising productivity. Komatsu’s powerful engine, coupled with SmartLoader logic, automatically generates sufficient torque for each work phase. This intelligent system reduces fuel consumption while maintaining production levels.
  4. Designed for Easy Maintenance: Simplify maintenance tasks with features like a swing-out, hydraulically driven cooling fan, wider fin spacing, and a programable auto-reversing function. Gull-wing engine doors provide quick, convenient access for daily checks and service items.
  5. Single-Pedal Operation with HST Dynamic Braking: The single-pedal operation, supported by Hydrostatic Transmission (HST) dynamic braking, reduces periodic service needs, extends brake life, and enhances overall productivity. This feature is especially beneficial for novice operators.
  6. Optional High Lift Booms for Extended Reach: Increase machine reach and application versatility with optional high lift booms, third spool hydraulics, and quick coupler options. These enhancements empower owners to take on larger and more diverse projects.
