New Komatsu PC17R-5 and PC20R-5 diggers

Of interest to the plant rental sector is the addition by Komatsu of two models to its mini-excavator range – a PC17R-5 and PC20R-5. Designed to go where few excavators could ever go before, the Komatsu range of ‘door size’ diggers boasts features likely to increase their popularity amongst plant rental outlets, contractors landscapers and the DIY sector. These include EU Stage 5 engines, fingertip controls, hydraulic quick couplers, seat belt indicator, secondary shut down switch and protected PPC levers. 

Both machines are now available to order through their distributor in Ireland, McHale Plant Sales. Their introduction increases the number of Komatsu minis now on sale in the region to 14, subject to any down-the-line range rationalisation that Komatsu may carry out.
