(5) Electronically-controlled hydrostatic transmission (1/2)
The 1-pump, 2-motor system allows for high-efficiency and high tractive effort.
Engine power is transmitted hydraulically to a driving wheels.
Full auto-shifting eliminates any gear shifting and kick-down operation to allow
the operator to concentrate on digging and loading.
HST provides quick travel response and aggressive drive into the pile. The
variable displacement system automatically adjusts to the tractive effort demand
to provide maximum power and efficiency.
When high drive torque is needed for digging, climbing or initial movement, the
pump feeds both motors. This combination makes the loader very aggressive
and quick.

(5) Electronically-controlled hydrostatic transmission (2/2)
As the machine moves and gains high traveling speed, the torque demand
decreases and the low-speed motor is effectively removed from the drive
system by a clutch. At this point, the flow is going to the high-speed motor and
the low-speed motor is not causing a drag on this system.
Under deceleration, the HST system acts as a dynamic brake. The dynamic
brake can even hold the loader in position on most workable slopes. This can
be an advantage in stockpiling and ramp loading.
An inching pedal gives the operator excellent simultaneous control of travel
and equipment hydraulic speeds. By depressing the inching pedal, drive pump
flow to the motors will decrease, reducing ground speed and allowing the
operator to use the accelerator to increase flow to equipment hydraulics.
Depressing the inching pedal further will activate the service brakes.
1. Large traction force in the low-speed range
2. Less wheel spin slip thanks to Variable Traction Control System & S-mode
3. Short cycle time V-shape loading thanks to Good acceleration
4. High efficiency at high traveling speed

(6) Eco indicator
The display of economical operation guidance
and indication of consumed fuel will help an
operator to promote energy saving.

The engine fan is driven hydraulically. The speed of the fan is controlled by
engine coolant temperature, hydraulic oil temperature and engine air intake
temperature.
The fan is controlled to proper low speed
according to the temperature. This
minimizes unnecessary waste of engine
power for cooling and reduces fuel
consumption.

2-2. OPERATION OF HST [1/6]
(1) Variable shift control system Carry over of WA dash 5
The operator can choose between first,
second, third or fourth maximum speeds by
dialing the speed range selector switch. Speed range
For V-cycles, the operator can set the speed selector switch
control switch to 1 or 2.
For load and carry, select 3 or 4.
The variable shift control switch allows the Variable shift
operator to adjust machine speed in control switch
applications such as confined V-shape
loading.
When in speed range 1, the operator can
adjust travel speed using the variable shift
switch to match machine speed and
hydraulics to the distance traveled.
It allows constant speed when working
with front attachment (sweeper, mower,
snow blower etc.).
(2) Variable traction control system
The tractive effort of the machine, when traveling at
a low speed, can be reduced by using the traction
control switch. Combined with the function of torque Traction control switch
proportioning or limited slip differentials, this system
exerts the following effects. Control ON
(1) Facilitates operation on soft ground position
where the tires of the machine are apt to
slip.
(2) Eliminates excessive bucket
penetration and reduces tire slippage
during stockpile loading to improve the
work efficiency.
(3) Reduces tire slippage to extend the
life of tires.
Furthermore, the maximum tractive effort
Traction control level can be
can be adjusted in three stages when the changed by monitor display.
traction control switch is ON. This allows (Operator mode)
the operator to select the optimum

tractive effort for diversified road
conditions.
(3) “S-mode” for slippery ground condition
Setting the switch to S-mode allows the Patent
machine to get the optimum driving force Traction control switch
for operations on slippery road surfaces,
like snow-removal on snow covered
surfaces, resulting in reduced tire
slippage and facilitation of the operation. S-mode
position
Unexpected tire slippage on slippery road
surface is suppressed by controlling the
engine speed and HST motor when
traveling at a low speeds.
(S-mode is effective only in forward
traveling.)

Max. traction switch is located on the work equipment control lever.

When the traction control switch is at the ON position or S-mode is
selected, pushing this switch cancels the setting of the traction control
temporarily and increases the tractive effort to its 100 % value. Then
pushing the max. traction switch again or operating the F/R lever
returns the tractive effort to the set value automatically. This switch is
useful for operations such as piling up work where large tractive effort is
required temporarily.

2-4. HIGH RELIABILITY & DURABILITY [1/6]
(1) High resistant frames
The front and rear frames and the loader linkage have more torsional
rigidity to provide resistance to increased stresses.
Frame and loader linkage are designed to accommodate actual working
loads, and simulated computer testing proves its strength.
Steering angles of 40 degree give the WA320-6 a high degree of
maneuverability.
(2) Komatsu components

Komatsu manufactures the
engine, transfer case and
hydraulic components on this
wheel loader.
Komatsu loaders are
manufactured with an integrated
production system under a strict
quality control system.

(3) Overrun prevention
When the machine descends down a moderate slope (six degrees or
less), maximum travel speed is automatically restricted to approximately
42 km/h, for protection against damaging power train components and
brakes, by sensing the travel speed and controlling
the discharge amount of the HST pump and motor. When the machine
descends down a steep slope and the travel speed reaches 40 km/h,
the caution lamp lights up to inform the operator to reduce travel speed.
Note: When the machine descends a steep slope, the use of the brake
is necessary since travel speed can become high.

(4) Sealed wet multi-disc service and parking brakes
Wet multi-disc brakes and a fully sealed hydraulic braking system result
in lower maintenance costs and higher reliability. There are now two
friction brake discs per wheel for greater braking power. The wet disc
service and parking brakes are sealed and adjustment-free to reduce
contamination, wear and maintenance. The parking brake is
mechanically operated and will stop output drive to the differentials.
Service brakes Parking brakes

(5) DT connector
Waterproof seal
Water-resistant DT connectors seal
tight and have higher reliability.
Waterproof seal
(6) Flat face-to-face O-ring seals

O-ring face seals having high sealing
performance are used for hydraulic
piping joints.

(7) Halogen head lamps
Halogen head lamps with rubber mounts provide high-performance
lighting, long life and excellent reliability. Repair costs are reduced
since the halogen bulbs provide long life and when replacement is
required, only the bulb needs to be replaced, not the entire headlamp
assembly.

(8) Cathion electro-deposition primer paint / Powder
coating final paint
Cathion electro-deposition paint is applied as a primer paint and
powder coating is applied as topcoat to the exterior metal sheet parts.
This process results in a beautiful rust-free machine, even in the most
severe environments. Some external parts are made of plastic
providing long life and high impact resistance.

(4) Side-by-side cooling unit
The cooling system is isolated from the engine by a bulkhead to provide
more efficient cooling and low noise. The radiator, air-to-air cooler and
oil cooler are mounted side-by-side for more efficient cooling and easy
cleaning. A fully-opening, gas spring assisted rear grille gives the
operator excellent access to the swing-out fan and coolers. The
hydraulic fan lowers noise levels further. The swing-out hydraulic fan is
good for cleaning out the cooling system by compressed air or water.
