This perfect match between size and performance efficiency was a focus for Komatsu designers
“This perfect match between size and performance efficiency was a focus for Komatsu designers” says Alex Visentin, Product Manager for Compact Wheeled Excavators. “The operator can concentrate on the work in front of the machine and worry less about rear swing impact in confined areas; this makes the machine exceptionally versatile, with the lowest running cost in its class, without the expenses of an SCR system.” He concludes: “On the European market today, no other manufacturer can guarantee such a unique combination”.
The PW98MR-11 takes full advantage of Komatsu group synergy and knowhow to offer high versatility, ease of buying, and peace of mind with the factory-fitted Lehnhoff Powertilt option.
Versatility and efficiency
Proportional joysticks offer incredible job versatility, while providing precise attachment control and standard high flow auxiliary hydraulics. Optional Komatsu integrated attachment control also grants versatility whenever the owner must manage a high variety of attachments.
The operational concept of this wheeled midi excavator puts full control of the machine at your fingertips. Travel direction, undercarriage attachments, and manual/automatic axle lock can be actuated by switches on the control joysticks or the dashboard. Without removing the hand from the right joystick, you can switch its function from boom operation to undercarriage control for complete and precise control over the parallel dozer blade.
Along with its class leading compact size, the PW98MR-11 features an unrivalled lifting performance. The combination of power, convenient dimensions and complete control makes the PW98MR-11 a first choice for heavy-duty lifting applications or simple excavating tasks in narrow alleys, road construction sites and for sewer construction work. Its swing boom design allows digging parallel to buildings or barriers, and the protected two piece boom cylinder grants safer truck loading operation. When working on slippery and uneven surfaces the standard 100% differential lock on both axles will grant direct traction, for enhanced mobility on any jobsite.
With growing demand for environmental solutions, and urban areas becoming increasingly sensitive to emissions, the PW98MR-11 EU Stage V wheeled midi excavator provides your customers with the opportunity to participate in any tender, demonstrate environmental credentials, and future proof their investment
