Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

As of yesterday (10/13/2016), I received a 240lbs wooden crate.
In this crate, a Komatsu PC700 excavator and a CAT 740 ADT.
I have made a 5 part unboxing/Bind and Dig video.
I will make a full detail review later on once I play with it some more.
Here are the pictures and videos:

Practicing on the dinning table and a quick review. It's my second day of operating so the movements are not as smooth.

Totally agree with egronvold. Lots of well thought out details in those models.

Lifting CAT 740 (24.4lbs)

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

That's impressive lifting the adt ! Does the machine come with the spare parts like the cylinder rebuild kit, extra chain links and the cab interior standard or is it cost extra?

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

Thanks! It comes with spare parts but not all. Some parts I had to pay extra like the interior cabin and spare speed control.
The cylinders are rebuildable and are true industrial hydraulics. The pump is also industrial. It's best to contact mother earth mover for more details and specs.

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

I saw this machine at the California Trucking Show last weekend. All I can sat is this is the ultimate in quality and design. Thank you Shaun for bringing it to the show..

Just finished painting the operator, cabin seat, and Trimble GPS receivers. In the process of mounting the receivers. I plan on using magnet to mount it on the steel body. This will allow me to move the GPS around to anywhere on top of body.

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

Made a detail review of the pc700. Shows all movements (fast and slow movements) and I try to describe as I go along in the video.

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

Thank You for a very good presentation/demo of the Mother Komatsu. I have had the urge to purchase a excavator for quite some time now. Just ben waiting for something good to show up on the market. Now i think it did. This machine looks fantastic. I have been looking at all your vid's and love what i see.
I think i have to move this way up the list of must have item's.......way up !
Again thanks for planting that bug in my brain.........:) Well Done.

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review

Re: Komatsu PC700 Excavator unboxing and review
 

Added work lights toggled from the radio and painted the hand rails. Not sure what to do next as far as scale goes. Any suggestions?
