These are pictures of South Devon based plant hire firm Wakeham Hire Komatsu pc138us working at the Langage power station job near Plymouth.Here its loading the JCB 714 dumper I'm driving on the same site.Not a bad machine but the control levers are to long for me.Simon the operator said he'd like to try the new dash 8 model to see if there is more leg room in the cab compared to this model.

Good machines IMO

Yeh the Dash 8 version looks fantastic

As for the legroom never been a problem for me !!

Just wish I had Tom Cruise's looks !!

Nick.

Yea get on stumpy

All in good fun mate

Jim

nice little komatsu!Thanks for the pictures!

The dash 8 version is a nice looking piece of kit and apparently out performs the PC130-8 I think I'd prefer the PC130-8 though because it has the full sized cab and I like to have plenty of leg room in my cabs The dash 8 machines are very nice to operate and I'd definitely like to have one as my allocated machine

looks familiar jim?
