Revamped Hydraulic Excavator
Description
PC238USLC-11 hydraulic excavator is equipped with an EPA Tier 4 Final certified engine and a new viscous fan clutch, engine parasitic loads are now lower, and productivity up to four percent higher, compared to the previous model.
The PC238USLC-11 is available with Komatsu’s new KomVision system, a birds-eye-view camera system that combines input from three cameras into a surround-view image of the machine and surroundings to provide improved operator situational awareness.
The PC238USLC-11, whether rented, leased or purchased, is covered by the Komatsu CARE® program for the first three years or 2000 hours, whichever comes first. Komatsu CARE® includes scheduled factory maintenance, a 50-point inspection at each service and two complimentary Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) maintenance services and DEF tank flushes in the first five years. With select labor, fluids and filters covered by Komatsu over this period, Komatsu CARE lowers ownership costs, raises resale value and improves equipment uptime and availability. For full program details, refer to the Komatsu CARE reimbursement letter.
