Buying brief: Komatsu PW190-11
The Komatsu PW190-11 is built for general construction, utility work and road maintenance where a wheeled excavator can move between sites under its own power. It sits in the 17.3 to 19.7 tonne class and carries a 1.13 m3 bucket, with a rated power of 129 kW / 173 HP. The maximum dig depth of 6.1 m suits trenching and excavation tasks that need reach below grade. This class balances output with mobility for contractors who cover multiple jobs. At 17.3 to 19.7 tonnes, the PW190-11 needs careful transport planning. A low-bed trailer and permits are typically required, and axle loads should be checked for road travel.
On site, the weight gives stability for digging and lifting, but the wheeled undercarriage raises the centre of gravity compared with tracked machines. Outriggers or a steady stance are important when working over the side. Ground conditions also affect mobility. Inspection should cover the wheeled undercarriage: check axle seals, hub play, tyre condition and steering linkages. Examine the boom and dipper for cracks, and the bucket for wear. Test hydraulic functions through full cycles, looking for leaks and smooth operation.
Verify the engine starts cleanly and check for blow-by. Inspect the cab for structural damage and confirm that all controls and safety devices work. Shipping arrangements depend on the machine's dimensions and weight. The 17.3 to 19.7 tonne range affects trailer choice and loading method. Secure the excavator on a suitable low-bed trailer with rated chains and wheel chocks. Protect exposed hydraulic components and remove or secure loose items.
Confirm lifting points and use certified slings. Provide the carrier with accurate weight and dimensions for permits and route planning. Document the condition before loading.
