Equipment Overview
The Komatsu WA600 is a large wheel loader built for demanding construction and mining environments, positioned above the WA500 in Komatsu’s WA wheel loader range, current as the WA600-8. It delivers 395 kW (529 hp) and a 55,400–57,500 kg operating weight, suited to high-production quarry and mining work with a 6.4–7.8 m³ bucket capacity.
Power comes from a Komatsu SAA6D170E-7 engine, Tier 4-compliant, driving an automatic full-powershift transmission with lock-up torque converter for maximum forward/reverse travel speeds of 37.7–41 km/h. Komatsu reports higher productivity and operating efficiency through the loader’s integrated drivetrain, hydraulics, and redesigned bucket, with joystick steering standard for reduced operator fatigue.
