The power train consists of two main drives. Each of the two gearboxes drives three identical main pumps which draw hydraulic oil from an unpressurized hydraulic tank. Open circuit hydraulics provide maximum cooling and filtering efficiency.
| Main hydraulic pumps | Komatsu |
| Main hydraulic pumps | 4 200 L/min |
| Relief valve setting | 700 L/min |
| High pressure in line filters one per pump located at the valve blocks |
310 bar |

| High pressure screens | 200 microns |
Flow description: The four-circuit systems feature a load-limiting governor with oil delivery summation to the working circuits and incorporates pressure cut-off control. Hydropilot priotieses hydraulic flow giving smooth hydraulic response, simple hydraulic system layout, and a reduced number of components. The hydraulic system includes large swing-out vertical air-to-oil hydraulic coolers with temperature-regulated hydraulically driven fans.

Version: Komtrax Plus 2
Description: The Komtrax Plus monitoring system is designed for Komatsu mining equipment to provide real time and stored
information about the operating status of the machine. Fault messages are immediately available to the operator via
a digital display and in the event of critical malfunctions the engine is also shut down. The digital storage provides
failure summary and analysis, which can be down loaded by laptop computer. This data will assist in predicting or
reduction downtime. Optionally available is Orbcomm satellite transmission (check for availability in your territory).
Argus PLM ready: Yes

Mining track shoes
Track shoes penetrate the ground giving the machine traction to move — proper shoe selection is important for optimum machine performance and long undercarriage life.
