Description

Komatsu PC2000-8 Hydraulic Excavator Operation & Maintenance Manual – Serial 20150 and Up

This Komatsu PC2000-8 Hydraulic Excavator Operation & Maintenance Manual is the full Komatsu-issued document for machines from serial number 20150 and up. It combines the operator’s instructions for correct and safe use of the machine with the complete factory maintenance program, so the same file answers both “how do I run this machine” and “how do I keep it running”. The manual is delivered as a single PDF and covers the PC2000-8 hydraulic excavator plus, in the dedicated Section 7, the PC2000-8 loading shovel configuration.

Between its covers the manual handles the full operating envelope of the PC2000-8: the 728 kW (976 HP) Komatsu SAA12V140E-3 diesel engine, the 3,400-litre fuel tank, the 130-litre engine oil refill capacity, the hydraulic tank, the PTO case, the swing machinery cases and the final drive cases on each side. Every fluid, filter, breather, strainer and grease point in the machine has a maintenance item in the schedule, and each scheduled task is written out as a step-by-step procedure with the required tools, tightening torques and safety precautions.

What the Komatsu PC2000-8 Operation & Maintenance Manual Gives You

Because this is the combined operation and maintenance manual rather than a separate operator’s booklet and a separate service binder, the reader has the whole picture in one file. The monitoring system chapter walks through every monitor icon, the correct reading for each gauge, and the exact temperature or pressure at which each caution or emergency monitor lights up — including the auto-deceleration behaviour, the auto-low-idle logic, the PTO oil temperature warnings and the ECO gauge target range. The error-code table (E03 through E0E) tells the technician what each machine-monitor fault means and what to do about it before any disassembly starts.

The maintenance chapter is where the Komatsu PC2000-8 operation and maintenance manual really earns its keep. It lists the wear parts with part numbers and the interval at which each is replaced. It gives the recommended engine oil, powertrain oil and supercoolant specifications with the ambient temperature ranges each covers, and the mixing ratios for the AF-NAC supercoolant. It provides the tightening torque tables for metric bolts and hydraulic hose fittings, and a separate safety critical parts list with the two-year or 4,000-hour, 5,000-hour and 8,000-hour replacement intervals for fuel hoses, aftercooler hoses, high-pressure piping clamps, injector nozzle tips, the emergency escape rope ladder and the seat belt.

The hydraulic circuit section covers the procedure for bleeding air from the pumps, the travel motors, the swing holding brake circuit, the idler cushion circuit, the pilot selector valve circuit and the main valve pilot piping, and the method for releasing internal pressure in the hydraulic circuit before any pipe or hose is opened. For the PC2000-8 specifically, the manual also documents the idler cushion (hydraulic cushion) cylinder and grease cylinder adjustment, since track tension on this machine uses both.

Who This Manual Is For

The Komatsu PC2000-8 operation & maintenance manual suits the operator who needs the correct checks before each shift, and equally the field service technician or shop mechanic who carries out the scheduled maintenance program. It works for fleet owners running PC2000-8 excavators in mining, quarry and heavy civil applications, for plant hire companies that service their own machines, and for anyone who needs to keep the equipment in specification between major overhauls. Because the loading shovel configuration is also included, owners running the shovel version get the additional bottom dump cylinder, front bucket and shovel-specific operating precautions in the same file.
