Features and benefits

Low ground pressure and high stability

Low ground pressure and high stability

XC harvesters, with their 8-wheel design, excel in hilly terrain and soft ground. Lower ground pressure protects sensitive surfaces, while a double oscillating bogie ensures stability and manoeuvrability on uneven terrain.

Crane operation at its easiest

For a harvester operator, an easily operated crane is important for ensuring a productive working day. With Komatsu Smart Crane, the crane – from the main boom all the way to the tip of the telescopic arm – is controlled with a single, smooth lever movement.

Thanks to the crane’s precision and responsiveness, the operator can easily steer the head where they want it, contributing to a more relaxed way of working. A relaxed operator can keep up a high and steady production during the day and still feel more refreshed at the end of the working day. Advantages that will be seen in both profitability and the operator’s well-being.
