    Operator and work site safety are a priority. Komatsu hydraulic excavators have an LED screen to give your operator a 360-degree view, each meet ISO 10262, 6394, 10263-4 safety stand-ards, and all include anti-slip gratings, easy ingress/egress and an innovative emergency escape system.

    Customised to your operation

    Customised to your operation

    While Komatsu shovels and backhoes meet the density benchmark of 1.8 t/m³, you have the option to customize your machine to the bucket size and wear package you need, and choose your heating/cooling systems, travel gear protections, special track pad variations and more.
