Features
- The WH716 belongs to
the new series of KOMATSU telescopic handlers, which offers:
- The high quality, the safety and the cutting edge technology
which typically characterise all KOMATSU products
- The Super Low Boom Profile, a new design which offers unique
advantages in terms of stability and visibility
- Excellent Visibility
Thanks to the particular design of the frame, the hinging point of
the boom is extremely low; this characteristic, together with the
extending cylinder, which is inside the boom, ensures a 360°
visibility, an unparalleled feature
- Top Performance
- High lifting capacity to the maximum height and the maximum
reach, both on stabilisers and on tyres, with the help of the
frame levelling (±10°) and the rear axle lock (optional), which
is automatic over a 30° boom angle
- The CLSS (Closed Load Sensing System) hydraulic system, which is
a closed-centre circuit, with Load Sensing and a variable
displacement pump that ensures smooth proportional and combined
movements; all this guarantees maximum productivity and minimum
consumption
- High travel speed powered by the standard Full Power Shift
transmission
- Easy Manoeuvrability
- The wide steering angles make the steering radius extremely
reduced for the category, both over tyres and over forks
- Three different steering modes (two-wheel, four- wheel and crab)
allow the operator to smoothly and precisely move the machine,
whatever the conditions, from small building yards to road
transfers
- Total Comfort
- Spacious cab
- Exceptionally low noise
- The PPC servo-control for the boom and the work tool allows the
operator three simultaneous and proportional movements
- The EGS (Electronic Gear System) electronically controls the
transmission, the self-diagnosis system and the selection of the
travelling direction; by using a twist grip lever the operator can
choose between 5 forward and 3 reverse speeds
- The hydraulic quick coupler, optional, allows users to change
work tools without leaving the cab
- Full Safety
- The SLI stability control device (Safe Load Indicator), equipped
with an acoustic and visual alarm, informs the operator when the
machine stability limit is approaching
- The ASM anti-tipping system (Auto Stop of the Movements),
optional, prevents the machine from aggravating movements and only
allows the retraction of the boom
- The selection of the three steering modes by the simultaneous
pushing of two buttons avoids accidental shifting, always ensuring
total safety in steering mode changes
- Three working modes provide full operator comfort and safety:
travelling, working, working and travelling (except for higher
speeds)
- Servo-assisted service brakes with double hydraulic independent
circuits, active on both axles
- The automatic rear axle oscillation lock, optional, increases
both lift performance and security
- Safety valves on the hydraulic cylinders
- Highest Stability
- The long wheelbase provides the machine with a wide bearing
area; together with a very low centre of gravity, it also
guarantees excellent static and dynamic stability to the KOMATSU
telescopic handler
- The three stage telescopic boom features chains for the
extension of the third stage of the boom; this solution helps to
reduce the weight of the whole structure, improving stability and
loading capacity
