The PC22MR-3 completes Komatsu’s MR-3 range of mini excavators and features an operating weight of 2.250 to 2.550 kg. A short tail design lets this machine work in total safety in most restricted areas, with no need to worry about rear collisions. Its Komatsu 3D76E engine complies with the strictest Stage IIIA emission controls, and a cast X-leg undercarriage with rounded shape guarantees high sturdiness and easy cleaning.

Despite its compact size, the PC22MR-3 offers unequalled comfort as all Komatsu MR-3 excavators. The spacious cab was developed with exceptional care to details, and the work environment is quiet and comfortable. Special attention was given to the operator’s well being with a new dashboard, ergonomic and dedicated PPC controls, low noise levels, and maximum visibility of the work area. The PC22MR-3 is available in option with a boom, arm and blade safety valve and an overloading alarm.

Komatsu designed the PC22MR-3 to be easily serviceable. All periodic inspection points are quickly accessible under the bonnets. To perform special maintenance, a single person can simply tilt the canopy or cab upwards. Exclusive technical solutions extend to 500 hours the intervals between most ordinary maintenance operations, such as pin greasing or engine oil replacement.

KOMTRAX™, Komatsu’s Satellite Monitoring System is standard on the PC22MR-3 . Machine data is easily accessible over the internet and allows owners or fleet managers to view the machines location, performance and service requirements.
