The 2011 Komatsu PC290LC-10 excavator, is a durable and efficient construction machine designed for mid-sized excavation tasks. This machine is ideal for a range of applications, including construction, utilities, and small mining operations.
Key Specifications and Features:
Engine and Performance: Equipped with a six-cylinder diesel engine, this Komatsu excavator offers robust performance and reliable operation, necessary for demanding excavation and earthmoving tasks. The diesel engine is known for its durability and power efficiency.
Transmission: The hydrostatic transmission enhances machine responsiveness and provides smooth handling. This type of transmission allows for fine control over the excavator's speed and torque, facilitating precise operations in varied terrain and working conditions.
Operator's Station: The PC290LC-10 features an enclosed cab (EROPS) with air conditioning and heating, ensuring operator comfort across different weather conditions. Such an environment reduces operator fatigue and enhances productivity during long working hours.
Boom and Stick: The excavator is equipped with a standard boom and a 10-foot stick, providing good reach and depth for a variety of digging and trenching activities. This setup is suited for both deep excavation tasks and surface leveling.
Quick Coupler and Bucket: It includes a mechanical quick coupler that makes changing attachments quick and easy, thereby increasing the machine's versatility on the job site. The attached Esco bucket, which is 30 inches wide with a bolt-on cutting edge and four teeth, is designed for efficient digging and material handling. The teeth and bolt-on edge are ideal for penetrating hard materials, while also being relatively easy to replace when worn.
Durability and Reliability: Komatsu machines are built to endure the rigors of heavy-duty work environments. The high hour count on this unit indicates it has been regularly used in rigorous conditions, yet Komatsu's engineering standards help ensure ongoing reliability and performance.
