Choose between two hood guards

To protect the engine hood from external impacts, we offer an optional hood guard that comes in two versions: standard and reinforced.

The reinforced hood guard attaches to the frame and is made of larger gauge piping than the standard version. This reinforced version can be separated in the middle, so when the engine hood is to be opened, the operator releases the sturdy catch and pivots the two halves of the hood guard outwards to either side.

When adding a standard or reinforced hood guard, the harvester can also be equipped with additional fire safety in the shape of two 9 kg fire extinguishers as well as a rake, a spade and a digging bar.

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.

Smart Forestry precision

Smart Forestry Precision uses the latest technology in satellite positioning to determine the machine’s position with an error margin of just a few centimetres. This paves the way for productive and smart work methods where the operator is provided with key information and support to enable informed decisions.

There are several useful functions within Precision, like the ability to create exact, digital fences to mark the borders of a work area or around protected areas. It's also easier to classify stems based on environmental considerations with the stem code visualisation tool.
