FD30-17 Komatsu diesel forklift specs & dimensions (2019 - 2026)

The sunken counterweight specification truck with an expanded rear view area.

By lowering the position of the LPG cylinder, installation and removal is easier, and permits a wider rear view area for greater reversing safety.

Super Lift Hydraulic System

The tandem pump operates the power steering and the lifting equipment independently. Komatsu’s hydraulic technology lifts the cargo at about double the lift speed of the previous model when idling. The truck also features fine adjustments for the fork position and superior operability of attachments when idling.

Excellent Starting Performance

Super Lift Hydraulic System allows the operator to perform stationary steering and start the truck smoothly without revving up the engine. Even in that case, the engine does not stall. This system is highly appreciated at jobsites where stationary steering is often required.

Exceptional Heat Balance

The bell-shaped shroud concentrates cooling air into the radiator. The unique shape of the counterweight opening and fan improves cooling performance by increasing the airflow of cooling air. Plus, the Super Lift Hydraulic System is designed to reduce oil pressure loss, which also prevents the oil temperature from overheating.

Small Diameter Steering Wheel

The small diameter steering wheel provides 100% stationary steering and switch backs. The superior responsiveness of the steering wheel optimizes maneuverability even in narrow spaces. Fluctuations during traveling have also been reduced by more than 30% to improve travel performance.

Powerful Engine with Low Fuel Consumption

Thanks to the EPA Tier3 and EU Stage IIIA compliant engine and the Super Lift Hydraulic System, fuel consumption is reduced and powerful performance is realized. Fuel consumption is further improved by 8% and CO2 emissions are also reduced.

Operator Presence Sensing System

The Operator Presence Sensing System is a safety option that only allows lifting operations while traveling when the operator is seated. The alarm is activated once the operator leaves the seat. The interlock is a double safety measure and remains activated even when the operator returns to the seat. The interlock can only be released by returning the respective levers to a safe position. Traveling Interlocking Mechanism cuts power transmission off but does not serve to apply the brake. This mechanism is not installed on the lift truck with a clutch.

LPG Specification Truck

Komatsu offers both single fuel (LPG) and dual fuel (LPG and Gasoline) systems for the LPG Specification truck. The truck has superior fuel consumption, the service life of the engine oil, filters, and plugs are extended, and the engine delivers clean combustion exhaust gases. Cold starts are possible even in temperatures as low as -5°C.

Destined Evolution

Komatsu 1.5-3.5ton Diesel and Gasoline Forklift Trucks that reviewed the performance required from a lift truck has unrivaled performance and functions clearly different from those of competitors. Increased safety, reduced total lifetime costs, high operability with less fatigue, and environmental performance carefully considered. You will certainly be satisfied with Komatsu's unique benefits. These features will be the true standard for the future, providing increased satisfaction on the job.

Komatsu Reliability

Komatsu’s unique designs have further extended the life span of the truck. Both the new frame structure and changes to the mast improve durability. Improvement of the heat balance also enhances reliability during heavy operations. The meantime between failures (MTBF) has been extended by 40% plus. Maintenance and repair costs are minimized by extensive testing and quality inspections under different operating environments.

Superior Visibility

The mast rail section has been flattened and the inside width expanded for superior front visibility. With the lowered position of the 3-stage mast center cylinder and the tilt stay, plus the inclined backrest, front visibility is improved, and blind spots are reduced. The 2.0-3.5 ton trucks also provide clear fork tip visibility. Additionally, the size and layout of the dashboard and meter panel are optimized.

Options

The steel cabin provides superior comfort and protection from severe cold or very noisy environments. Heaters and air conditioners are also available. Loads are measured and displayed in 10 kg units. The resin cover resists stains and provides protection from the rain.
