835 Komatsu 835 Specifications & Technical Data (2014—2019)

Komatsu 835 Overview

The Komatsu 835 is the world's absolute best when it comes to environmental benefits, low weight, manoeuvrability and power for thinning forwarders in its class 11 tons. A true specialist in other words, that provides both contractors as well as machine operators and landowners with unique advantages thanks to these strengths. An 11-tonner that is a leader in performance, comfort and equipment, and that is also one of the most environmentally friendly forwarders we have built to date. These features enable the new Komatsu 835 to provide maximum productivity with minimal environmental impact even for the toughest thinning jobs where space is limited. This is a truly high-performance thinning forwarder. The 835 has both the highest torque and traction force in its class in relation to overall weight. Equally impressive are the load capacity, stability and the new crane’s turning.

Performance and capacity

High torque and considerable traction force in relation to total weight. Also tops the list when it comes to engine displacement and power. Power-optimised transmission, high load capacity, excellent stability as well as superior crane turning torque and reach.

Minimal environmental impact – environmental benefits

New 4-cylinder, Stage 4 engine provides world-leading emission reduction and fuel economy. Low weight, slim exterior dimensions and high ground clearance minimise impact on the forest. New frame system provides superb manoeuvrability and superior tracking properties.

Forestry Quality Economy

The 835 is built on a unique platform for when the requirements for manoeuvrability and low ground pressure are prioritised. The 835 has a new weight-optimised frame system that in combination with the option of having extra-wide tracks, produces minimal impact on the forest floor. The smooth, V-shaped frame provides outstanding obstacle clearance and manoeuvrability.

Comfort and working environment

Spacious, high-performance cab with modern hand controls and generously dimensioned air conditioning unit. Short nose and big windows provide excellent lines of sight. The Comfort Ride option, the unique cab suspension that effectively reduces shock, impact and noise.

Leading cab environment

The new cab and the new Komatsu Comfort Ride cab suspension (optional) provide a spacious, high-performance and ergonomically correct operator environment with low noise levels.

Why a Komatsu forwarder?

High productivity, low operating costs, innovative technology, excellent operator environment – these are just a few examples of the advantages that earn Komatsu forestry machines a place among the best in the world. Behind all this is a highly-focused strategy to continually build upon the advantages of owning a Komatsu forwarder. A strategy based on the following principal ideas.

Economy

The ambition to maximize profitability is one of the most important driving forces in the further development of Komatsu’s forwarders. Each small improvement that increases productivity and reliability, reduces costs, or saves time is of interest. Tangible and quantifiable examples from today’s Komatsu forwarders include fuel-efficient engines, high reliability, and unmatched high productivity per unit of time.

Productivity

More work in less time. This is something we often hear from contractors who switch from competing brands to Komatsu forwarders. And there are many reasons behind this, both large and small. The most important include the high-performance operator environment, superior loader geometry, and great maneuverability and speed.

Equipment and options

Very well-equipped even in the standard configuration with everything from a full-featured cab to ProTec, ORFS couplings and FlexGate. Moreover, it offers a multitude of options such as bogie lift, front blade, hood protection, fleet management system MaxiFleet, and the new FlexBunk load system with vertically adjustable stakes.

Wide variety of options

The 835 can be ordered with such quality-enhancing equipment as a bogie lift, front blade, FlexBunk vertically adjustable stakes, Comfort Ride, hood protection, and many more options.
