Product Features and benefits:

Helps Reduce Servicing Downtime

Komatsu’s engine gull-wing and wide swing-out doors facilitate quick and easy access to all engine service points and key components, minimizing servicing downtime.

Equipped to Multi-Task

The closed-loop system allows operators to simultaneously travel, cut, delimb, harvest, and swing timber, all in one powerful and agile machine. Engineered with dedicated hydraulic lines for each function, enhancing performance while preventing potential machine damage.

Maneuvers in Dense Terrain

Designed for efficient operation in dense forests and clear-cutting environments, featuring a short-tail swing design, enabling close cuts to the undercarriage and tracks. Boasts powerful swing torque for demanding applications.

Better Lift Capacity

Enhanced design increases lift capacity, particularly when handling trees with the arm fully extended. Achieves an excellent balance between boom lift and arm holding capacity, and offers compatibility with a wide selection of harvesting saw heads.

Designed for Operator Comfort

Prioritize operator comfort to reduce fatigue and enhance productivity. Features superior visibility, especially to the tracks, along with powerful heating, cooling, and defrosting systems in a spacious and comfortable work environment.

Customizable for Each Operator

Tailor the controls to each operator’s preference during shift changes, allowing for up to three settings. Customize preferences for joystick, boom, stick, tool tilt, swing, cab leveling, and more to maximize productivity.

Adapts to Long or Short Reach

Adapt the equipment to the job with two different working ranges. Utilize the short reach and larger-scaled head for specific tasks, and switch to a longer reach with a more compact head design when working in restricted spaces.

Powerful and Fuel-Efficient

Achieve increased productivity with the powerful and fuel-efficient Cummins QSL9 engine, delivering more horsepower and torque while consuming less fuel compared to XT-3 models. EPA Tier 4 final emissions certified.

Stands Up to Debris

Minimize the risk of debris hazards in forestry conditions with Komatsu’s harvesters, featuring specific design forestry guarding to ensure smoother operations and increased productivity.

Promoting Stability on Slopes

Operators can work confidently on sloped terrains with a heavy-duty, four-way leveling system that facilitates front, rear, and side leveling for exceptional stability. The fuel tank placement lowers the center of gravity, further enhancing stability.

Designed to Meet Your Job Demands

Adaptability is key, and Komatsu tracked harvesters are designed to meet diverse forestry harvesting demands. Factory-equip your machine with a range of harvesting saw heads to match the specific performance requirements of your job sites.

Promote Lower Maintenance Costs

Reduce maintenance costs with an innovative hydraulic tank system design requiring 55% less hydraulic oil compared to XT-3 models. Pumps are equipped with hydro-nucleation to prevent pump cavitation and are 17% larger, operating 500 rpms slower for extended component life compared to the XT-3.
