For v-cycles, the operator can set the speed control switch to 1 or 2, which will give him aggressive digging, quick response and fast hydraulics. For load and carry, he can select 3 or 4 which will still give aggressive digging but with much faster travel speed. The variable shift switch allows the operator to adjust his machine speed in confined v-loading applications. [. . . ] HST provides quick travel response and aggressive drive into the pile. The variable displacement system automatically adjusts to the tractive effort demand to provide maximum power and efficiency. Full auto-shifting eliminates any gear shifting and kickdown operation to allow the operator to concentrate on digging and loading.

Added dependability is designed into the braking system by the use of two independent hydraulic circuits, providing hydraulic backup should one of the circuits fail. If the brake oil pressure drops, the warning lamp flashes and the warning buzzer sounds intermittently. The parking brake is mechanically controlled by a lever in the cab. WHEEL LOADER Flat Face-to-Face O-Ring Seals Flat face-to-face O-ring seals are used to securely seal all hydraulic hose connections and to prevent oil leakage. WA320-5 INCREASED RELIABILITY AND SERVICEABILITY Main Monitor - EMMS (Equipment Management Monitoring System) Komatsu's new main monitor keeps the operator informed of all machine functions at a glance. The monitor is located behind the steering wheel and displays various different machine functions including fluid/filter change intervals and troubleshooting memory display functions. The main gauges are analog type for easy viewing and other functions utilize light symbols or LCD readouts. nipple Full Side-Opening Gull-Wing Engine Doors Ground level engine service and daily service checks are made easy with the gas spring assisted full side opening gull-wing doors. hose O-ring Cylinder Buffer Rings Buffer rings are installed to the head-side of the hydraulic cylinders buffer rings Parking Brake Service Brakes to lower the load on the rod seals, prolonging cylinder life by 30% and maximizing dust seal rod packing Extended Service Interval Swing-Out Radiator The new Komatsu cooling system is isolated from the engine to provide more efficient cooling and low noise. The swing-out hydraulic fan allows the operator to quickly clean out the cooling system. The radiator, air-to-air cooler and oil cooler are mounted side-by-side for more efficient cooling and easy cleaning. A fully-opening, gas spring assisted rear grill gives the operator excellent access to the swing-out fan and coolers. Extended engine oil service interval: 250 H 500 H overall reliability. Cathion Electrodeposition Primer Paint/Powder Coating Final Paint Cathion electrodeposition paint is applied as a primer paint and powder coating is applied as a topcoat to the exterior metal sheet parts. This process results in a durable rust-free machine, even in the most severe environments. Some external parts are made of plastic to provide long life and high impact resistance. Extended drive shaft greasing interval: 1, 000 H 4, 000 H High-rigidity Frames The front and rear frames along with the loader linkage have high rigidity to withstand repeated twisting and bending loads to the loader body and linkage. Both the upper and lower center pivot bearings use tapered roller bearings for increased durability. The structure is similar to those of large sized loaders and the reinforced loader linkage ensures high Sealed DT Connectors Main harnesses and controller connectors are equipped with sealed DT connectors providing high reliability and dust and corrosion resistance. Overrun Prevention System When the machine descends a slope of six degrees or less, maximum travel speed is automatically restricted to approximately 42 km/h 26 MPH, for safety protection against damage of power train components and brakes by sensing the travel speed and controlling the discharge amount of the HST pump and motor. When the machine descends a steep slope and the travel speed reaches 40 km/h 25 MPH, the caution lamp lights up to inform the operator to reduce the travel speed. Note: When the machine descends a steep slope, the use of the service brake is necessary to limit travel speed. strength. Komatsu Components Komatsu manufactures the engine, transfer case, differentials and electric parts on this wheel loader. Komatsu loaders are manufactured with an integrated production system under a strict quality control system. Front axle Transfer Rear axle Komatsu Components Engine 6 7 WA320-5 W HEEL L OADER Tiltable Steering Column The operator can tilt the steering column to allow maximum comfort and control. The two-spoke steering wheel allows maximum visibility of the monitor panel and forward work environment. WHEEL LOADER Comforts of Home The large cab allows room for a large lunch box holder, a variety of cup holders and a hot/cold box storage area. Optional air conditioning and the optional AM/FM stereo cassette system create a comfortable and controlled work environment.
