Strength and performance
When you need a versatile mining dozer that can go from ripping solid rock to cleaning up around the dragline, the Komatsu D475A-8 is a solid choice. Using an automatic lockup torque converter, the D475A-8 combined power and speed is designed for high production with minimal fuel consumption.
- Up to 10% productivity increase over previous models
- Over 11% more engine power in the reverse direction versus the forward direction
- 10% reduction in fuel consumption with automatic transmission with lockup torque converter compared to operation in manual gearshift mode

Steering system
Palm Command Control System (PCCS), joystick controlled, wet multiple-disc steering clutches are spring-loaded and hydraulically released. Wet multiple-disc, pedal/lever controlled steering brakes are spring-actuated hydraulically released and require no adjustment. Steering clutches and brakes are interconnected for easy, responsive steering.
