Now powered by a new technology Komatsu engine, our PC240LC-11 is an ideal machine for the civil construction, rental and related industries, capable of a range of earthmoving, excavating and general construction applications. As with all our construction excavators, key components are designed and manufactured by Komatsu to work together in an integrated package. And it comes standard with our Komtrax remote monitoring and location system, backed by our Australia-wide service and support network.
Functional digging force can be increased with use of the one-touch Power Max. function (up to 8.5 seconds of operation). Crowd force increased by 7% while bucket digging force increased by 8% compared to its previous models.
The PC240LC-11's new tier 4 final engine along with enhancements in the hydraulic system considerably decreases fuel consumption. The fuel efficiency is reduced by 9% compared to the previous models.
The PC240LC-11 uses viscous mounts for the cab that incorporate a longer stroke and the addition of a spring. The cab damper mounting combined with a high rigidity deck reduces vibration at the operator’s seat.

As the technology of diesel engines has progressed from Tier 3 to Tier 4 Final, design aspects of the engines have been fine-tuned to comply with regulations to cover regulated diesel engine exhaust pollutants.
The result is that these new diesel engines are cleaner than ever before, and in many cases more fuel efficient too. Along with this comes the need to properly manage and maintain these new generation of machines to make sure that operating costs are minimised.
