Latest addition to Komatsu’s product range – and that of their distributor in Ireland, McHale Plant Sales – is ITS new HD605-10 rigid dump truck whose many improved features include enhanced engine power and torque, and what Komatsu says is ‘cutting-edge fuel-reduction technologies’.
The HD605-10 is also claimed to ‘new benchmarks in safety, productivity, durability, and environmental responsibility,’ with a focus on meeting customer demands in quarry applications.
Added benefits described by the company include increased power and optimal performance at the lowest cost per tonne, unparalleled safety and comfort for operators, with weight reductions, improved durability and an expanded load capacity of up to 64 tonnes with a 43m3 body.
Building on the reliability of its predecessor, it is equipped with a 610kW Stage V engine and a host of other features improvements said by McHale Plant Sales director, Denis McGrath, to include “a number of ‘car-like’ features such as three selectable drive modes to match applications; illuminated stair walkways; an external seat belt reminder lamp; hill start assist, and cruise control”.
