Maximum Performance and Precise Control
Komatsu’s smooth and precise hydraulic system lets the
operator feel the performance of the machine. The threespool
open center control valve is designed for both single
and simultaneous movements to achieve excellent
controllability in the positioning of the bucket.
Standard Universal Attachment Quick Coupler
A universal quick coupler enables common
attachments to be changed quickly and with little
effort. The Komatsu coupler is compatible with all
attachments utilizing the universal skid steer coupler.
Auxiliary hydraulics with flat faced connectors are
standard equipment as well.
Easy to use Travel and Loader PPC Joysticks
Low effort Proportional Pressure Control (PPC) joysticks operate travel and
loader functions. Easy to use PPC controls help operators of all skill levels
work precisely and efficiently all day long.
Two-Speed Travel
Komatsu’s standard equipment two-speed travel
system allows for low impact shift-on-the-go speed
changes between 10.5 kph / 6.5 MPH work range and
16 kph / 10 MPH travel range. This feature allows the
operator to reduce load and carry cycle times as
well as travel times between job sites.
Vertical Lift-arm Design
Komatsu’s vertical lift-arm design makes it desireable
for loading and unloading operations (especially with
pallet forks). The front reach is kept virtually constant
throughout the entire lift cycle.
Auxiliary Hydraulic Control
The auxiliary hydraulic control provides excellent hydraulic power to front
mounted hydraulic attachments. The auxiliary hydraulic flow can be
metered from 1 to 16 GPM in either direction or locked into continuous full
flow. An auxiliary override option is available allowing the operation of
attachments requiring the operator to be outside the cab.
Automatic Power Control (APC)
Patented Komatsu Automatic Power Control hydrostatic travel
system is designed to allow full utilization of engine power.
The operator can work with full engine power during the
toughest job site applications without worrying about engine
stall outs.
Outstanding Visibility
The large top and rear tempered glass windows,
sloping hood, elevated seat platform, and the large
side screen area offer a superior view of the bucket,
cutting edge, and work area providing an excellent
view of the work at hand as well as the job site.
Super Flow Hydraulics (Optional)
The Super Flow Hydraulic system increases the available
oil flow for attachments from 16 GPM to 26 GPM and
includes case-drain and electrical connections. The
joystick mounted control system incorporates
momentary reverse flow and multiple electrical inputs
enabling the SK820 to power most attachments, making
it a very flexible and productive machine.
Intelligent Operator Controls
Komatsu has enhanced operator productivity and
efficiency with technologically advanced controls and
information systems. The operator arm rest bar
incorporates a LCD gauge panel and warning light
system. The joystick control levers include switches
for horn, two speed travel, loader arm float, and
attachment control functions.
Long Wheel Base
The Komatsu SK820 skid steer loader has one of the
longest wheel bases in its class, 1050 mm / 41.3",
giving the operator a stable ride and an excellent
platform for operating high production attachments.
Enhanced Loader Arm and Bucket Control
The hydraulic self leveling (up only) bucket with
1795 kg / 3950 lbs. breakout force enhances the
productivity of the operator on the job site. The
30° rollback angle and 45° dump of the bucket
provide good load retention over rough terrain and
good material flow in the dump cycle. |
