I’ve operated the Komatsu PC35 for several projects now, and overall, it performs solidly. What I appreciate most is its hydraulic power which enables efficient digging even in challenging soil. The compact size is a plus for tight access sites. On the other hand, I’d say the cab area could benefit from slightly better ergonomics for long shifts. Maintenance hasn’t posed major issues, and its fuel efficiency aligns with similar models I’ve used. All in all, a dependable mid-sized excavator.

I've spent some time behind the controls of the Komatsu PC45MR-5. It's a well-balanced, compact excavator that fits into tight spaces without losing power. The cab is spacious with straightforward controls, plus the air conditioning works exceptionally well. Servicing is simple due to the tilt-over cab design. However, I found the standard pre-cleaner requires regular monitoring in dusty environments. Overall, it meets high expectations for a machine of its class.

I had the opportunity to operate the Komatsu PC45MR-5 recently, and it's quite the machine. The hydraulic system is smooth, providing responsive control, making it easier to perform precise tasks. The cab design is user-friendly with ergonomic placements of controls, which reduces operator fatigue. However, while it offers excellent visibility, it could benefit from enhanced side mirrors for complete surroundings oversight. Overall, it's a solid machine that suits various job sites.

Having driven a Komatsu PC35 for various projects, I can say it features decent stability and power for its size. The rust-free condition is a plus, indicating good maintenance history. While the controls are responsive, adjusting to them may take a short time for beginners. It operated without any major mechanical issues during my time.

The machine operates well. I like the straightforward design of the control panel, which keeps things simple during hard tasks. Another aspect I appreciated is the hydraulic line setup for auxiliary tools. However, the seat adjustment could be more flexible for enhanced operator comfort. Maintenance accessibility seems well thought out, aligning with what you'd expect in this category.

I've operated the Komatsu PC30 recently, and my impressions are mostly favorable. The closed cab design is really convenient, offering protection against the elements. However, I noticed the rubber inserts on the tracks wear out relatively quickly when working on rugged terrain, a minor drawback depending on the task. Additionally, the machine's control feels familiar and intuitive, making it easier to get the hang of it if you're new to Komatsu units.

Tried out the PC45MR-5 the other day. First thing I noticed was how accessible all service points are, which makes daily checks a breeze. The engine runs quietly and powerful even at low idle, ideal for noise-sensitive areas. The seat is really comfortable, though I wish the armrests were a tad more adjustable. The visibility is fantastic, which helps maneuvering in tight spaces. It may be slightly overkill for smaller projects, but it handles demanding tasks very well.

I've operated the Komatsu PC35 recently, focusing on its functionality and handling. One thing I noticed is that the hydraulics are quite solid, providing smooth operation. However, the fuel efficiency could see improvement. It takes a bit more effort to maintain control precision during extended use, in my opinion. Overall, a pretty reliable machine for its purpose.

Used the PC78 recently, and the auxiliary hydraulics were quite effective for my attachments. Transitioning between controls was seamless due to the pattern control change valve. Yet, I noticed some wear on the cutting edges, which might require attention soon.

We use the PC210 on site mostly for digging and material handling. Power's not an issue, engine holds up well under steady use. I did notice the fuel economy isn't always what I'd want, especially if running heavy. Maintenance is fine, parts aren't hard to get where I am, just the usual Komatsu stuff. Hard to fault how it operates, joysticks and pedals all respond right away. Cab could use better air flow though. No real downtime issues yet. Solid all rounder, not perfect but gets it done.
