Buying brief: Komatsu PW160-11

Komatsu PW160-11 fits roadworks, utility trenching and site preparation where travel between jobs is frequent. With a 1.13 m3 bucket capacity and 5.8 m max dig depth, it handles medium excavation and loading. The 110 kW / 148 HP rated power indicates an engine suited to sustained loads. The class is a mid-size wheeled excavator, offering reach and maneuverability on confined sites. Plan work within the dig depth and bucket capacity to avoid overloading. Operating weight of 16.03 to 18.415 t affects transport and stability. At this weight, transport requires a suitable low-bed trailer and compliance with road rules; confirm dimensions as configured.

The weight aids digging stability, but outriggers or a blade are needed for safe lifting and trenching. Verify their presence and function. On soft ground, wheeled machines can lose traction, so plan routes. The weight range reflects different attachments and configurations, so measure the actual machine before transport. Inspection should focus on the engine at rated power for smooth running and exhaust color. Test hydraulic functions through full cycles, watching for drift and unusual noise. Check the bucket and linkage for cracks and wear.

Examine wheel hubs, steering and brakes. Look at the frame and boom for previous repairs. Verify that 5.8 m max dig depth is achievable without hose or linkage interference. Record tire condition and any missing guards or safety devices. Shipping preparation includes retracting the attachment and securing the upper structure. Confirm dimensions after folding, as these affect loading. Disconnect the battery and follow rules for fuel and fluids.

Provide sound tie-down points and verify them. The operating weight and bucket capacity help estimate loading needs. Final plan should match the carrier's requirements and the measured weight and dimensions. Remove or secure loose items before transport.
