To reduce operator effort and increase operating efficiency the new auto blade pitch mode sets blade pitch position between digging and dump positions while dozing. By pressing the auto-pitch switch it will toggle the pitch position from digging to dump position with no additional lever movements. The blade pitch control can be set through the monitor to automatically return to the digging position when reverse is selected. 

* Requires dual tilt dozer

This new system combines a Komatsu Diesel Particulate Filter (KDPF) and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR). The SCR NOx reduction system injects the correct amount of DEF at the proper rate, thereby decomposing NOx into non-toxic water (H2O) and nitrogen gas (N2).
 

Komatsu auto idle shutdown automatically shuts the engine down after idling for a set period of time to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. The amount of time before the engine is shutdown can be easily programmed from 5 to 60 minutes.
 

New D155AX-8 has achieved both high levels of productivity and fuel economy through usage of SIGMADOZER and automatic transmission with lockup torque converter.
 

The Komatsu SAA6D140E-7 engine is EPA Tier 4 Final emissions certified and provides exceptional performance while reducing fuel consumption. Based on Komatsu proprietary technologies developed over many years, this new diesel engine reduces nitrogen oxides (NOx) by more than 80% when compared to Tier 4 interim levels. Through the in-house development and production of engines, electronics, and hydraulic components, Komatsu has achieved great advancements in technology, providing high levels of performance and efficiency in virtually all applications.
 

The ripper control lever is new, ergonomic and incorporates an auto-return function that will automatically raise the ripper so the operator is less fatigued at the end of the day. The function starts when travel lever is moved to reverse position.
