Komatsu’s WB142-5 backhoe loader has an operating weight of 14,513 pounds and with a large loader bucket of 1 cubic yard with bolt-on cutting edge, has the power, speed and operator comfort to be extremely productive. Production in both loader and backhoe applications is driven by a Komatsu 76-net-horsepower diesel engine that’s housed in a heavy-duty, cast nose guard, which provides integral counterweight and front protection to the engine. The WB142-5 features a high-output (37 gpm), tandem-gear-pump hydraulic system designed for maximum speed, power and control. It even has two settings for the loader and the backhoe, so the operator can choose between maximum performance and maximum fuel economy.
