Komatsu WA500 -8 Wheel Loader
The WA500-8 features Komatsu Smart Loader Logic, which controls engine torque to match machine demands. For example, engine torque needs are higher for digging in V-shape loading, but lower when driving with an empty bucket. This system optimises the engine torque for all applications to minimise fuel consumption.
The large capacity torque converter allows the loader to up-shift gears faster for improved acceleration and hill climbing ability. The WA500-8 achieves high gear ranges and maintains high travel speed when working in load-and-carry applications.
In the cab the WA 500 continues to impress with a new standard, heated, air-suspension seat providing enhanced support on rough roads
Komatsu wheel loaders have always impressed and the WA 500 is a powerhouse.
