Komatsu 875- 2020

A forwarder operator spends many hours a day in the cab, making a pleasant and comfortable work environment extremely important. Komatsu Comfort Ride efficiently dampens jolts and vibrations, ensuring an ergonomic work environment. This in turn contributes to higher productivity and better profitability.

The new generation of Komatsu Comfort Ride comes with comfort-enhancing features like adjustable sideways firmness and automatic side levelling at standstill and at low speed. The elevated unloading mode now also works at low speed, to make it smoother to reposition the forwarder at the landing. Great news for all forwarder operators!

Komatsu Mini Steering Wheel means more space in the cab and a more comfortable driving experience. SpeedShift (Option) enables you to drive the machine at any speed between 0 and about 24 km/h without stopping to change gears – increasing productivity and saving fuel.

With a tractive force of 214 kN, the 875 has all the power required, and the unique interaction between engine, control system and transmission makes it exceptionally manoeuvrable in all situations. The Komatsu 875 provides its highest torque at low engine speeds and automatically adapts to changes in engine load due to terrain, obstacles, inclines and crane loads. The result is maximized productivity and benefit from every ounce of horsepower and every litre of diesel.

The Komatsu 875 has a large bunk characterised by its flexibility and many options. One is FlexGate, the gate that improves visibility and flexes out of the way if struck by the crane. This simplifies loading and minimises the risk of machine damage. Another is FlexBunk, which with its hydraulic height-adjustable stakes and option to widen the bunk provides a high load capacity. A third is LoadFlex which optimizes the load capacity and increases sorting flexibility

Servicing and maintenance are quickly and easily conducted. All daily servicing can be performed from ground level via easily accessible service hatches and the dipsticks are quickly and easily checked. Servicing is better facilitated by the electrically powered hood and strategically located filters.

The engine’s performance corresponds closely with the stringent demands placed on a large, efficient forwarder, both in terms of high capacity and low environmental impact. Based on well-proven common rail technology with high fuel injection pressure and injection control that is both rapid and more precise, the Stage V Final engine delivers high engine power, high torque, lower emissions and low fuel consumption. Add to this the fact that the engine has optimised combustion chambers and the result is an engine with maximised combustion efficiency when power is most needed.
