EXTREME
THINNING POWER
Agile 8-wheeler for demanding terrain
The new Komatsu 901XC is a new and eagerly
awaited harvester for thinning in hilly terrain and
on soft ground. The eight wheels, combined
with the well-proven Komatsu concept and the
double oscillating bogie, ensure a machine with
fantastic stability, excellent manoeuvrability
and low ground pressure. One of the features

that make the Komatsu 901XC a true thinning
specialist is the generous crane capacity, which
simplifies precision work and choosing the right
trees – especially at long reaches. Just like all our
machines, it also has advantages that include
effective 3-pump hydraulics, a fuel-efficient
engine and an outstanding operator environment.
