Komatsu is a globally recognised manufacturer of heavy construction and forestry equipment, supplying machines to industries ranging from mining and earthmoving to forest management worldwide.
This particular unit is described by the seller as a new demo machine, meaning it has seen limited use as a demonstration model rather than full production work. Financing is available at zero percent interest over sixty months, indicating a structured purchase option associated with this listing.
The cab is fitted with a seven-inch riser, elevating the operator's sightlines for improved visibility in dense forest conditions, and is equipped with a premium seat for operator comfort during extended shifts. Heavy-duty rubber forestry undercovers are included to protect the undercarriage from debris and impact damage common in logging environments.
The machine runs on 32.0-inch (800 mm) tracks, providing the ground contact and flotation suited to soft or uneven forest terrain. The front configuration is specified as a 20-foot 2-inch straight arrangement. A counterweight is fitted, balancing the machine for stability when the harvester head is extended.
The head fitted to this unit is a SouthStar QS500, a harvesting head designed for the North American market, capable of processing timber in production forestry applications. This machine is located in Mississippi, USA, and is listed at $505,000.
