Recently worked with a Komatsu CK30, something new for me.

Weighing in at 4330kgs and 84hp from a 3.4l Komatsu engine was a sprightly thing. Rear vision excelent due to the low slung back end, climbs fairly well and an average cab (heater didnt work...) but a delay on the tilt and rather slow hydraulics made it a bit difficult to work with at times.

Still fairly impressed with it and would rate over a Takeuchi!

Thats a great looking machine, I dont know why the tilt would be slow on it. I saw one the other day here with an Ashland Front mounted scraper on it heading for a small landscaping job. I hope one day I can purchase my own tracked unit and not have to run my 1840 Cases
