OverviewCombine a super-slant nose with 3D grade control for a fast and accurate grading system. The D51EX-24 sets the standard for general-purpose construction dozers and provides operators excellent blade visibility during work.
- Production increased by up to 15% over prior model
- Up to 13% reduced fuel consumption over prior model
Key specifications (summary)- Horsepower: 131 HP @ 2,200 rpm (ISO 9249 / SAE J1349 net) — 98 kW @ 2,200 rpm (gross/net references available)
- Operating weight: 13,699 kg (30,203 lbs)
- Tractor weight (approx.): 12,330 kg (27,182 lbs)
- Blade capacity: 2.7 m3 (3.5 yd3)
Features and benefits- Parallel Link Undercarriage System (PLUS) — Designed to wear evenly for near 100% usage of undercarriage components; can lower undercarriage maintenance costs by up to 40% versus a conventional undercarriage. Strengthened rollers and links increase wear life up to two times.
- PAT dozer with adjustable pitch — Power angle tilt (PAT) blade with adjustable blade pitch for expanded productivity and versatility across applications.
- Exceptional blade visibility — Innovative super-slant nose design provides excellent blade visibility for improved machine control and increased efficiency and productivity.
- HST with electronic control — Fully electronic control provides automatic shifting and smooth control. Komatsu-designed hydrostatic transmission (HST) allows Quick-Shift or variable speed selection.
- Easy-access maintenance features — Swing-up fan with gas strut-assisted lift for easy access to radiator, oil cooler and charge air cooler; hydraulic reversing fan for cleaning restricted airflow.
- Palm Command Control System (PCCS) — Ergonomic, low-effort joystick (PCCS) controls directional movement, travel speed and counter-rotation. Palm-operated controls for travel and blade functions increase operator comfort and ease of use.
