HEAVY-DUTY LOADERS FRONT KOMATSU’S NEW MODEL STORY IN IRELAND

Buoyed by an improving economic landscape, Komatsu distributor in Ireland, McHale Plant Sales is promoting a number of new and improved Komatsu arrivals due here shortly.

?Appealing to aggregates producers is a new WA480-8 heavy-duty handler whose features include a new auto-digging mode, a redesigned, easier-to-fill?digging bucket, improved operator comfort, productivity advances and reduced fuel consumption features.

?Recently delivered to the Breedon Group at their cement manufacturing plant in Kinnegad was an even larger WA600-8 loader – the first model of its kind in Ireland and latest in a series of Komatsu machines supplied to them by McHale.

?Other developments in the Komatsu pipeline see a revamping of the WA475 with a further reduction in fuel consumption; a reclassification of the PW118 wheeled excavator to PW138, and the promise of new skid steer introductions.
