When you choose to rent the Komatsu D51PX-24 from Riverside Equipment Rentals, you’re investing in one of the most capable general-purpose crawler dozers available for rent in BC. Built for precise, high-speed grading across a wide range of applications from highway construction to land clearing and site preparation — the D51PX-24 combines 131 HP of raw power with wide-track undercarriage stability and Komatsu’s advanced hydrostatic transmission technology. Here are the key features that make the
Komatsu D51PX-24 the right choice for your project:
High-Capacity PAT Blade (4.4 yd³): The Power Angle Tilt dozer blade is built from high wear-resistant steel with a manually adjustable pitch system, delivering up to 15% higher production over the prior generation. The hydraulic tilt and angling function provides versatility across land clearing, grading, road building, and site prep.
Wide-Track PX Configuration: The D51PX-24’s 28″ (710 mm) wide single-grouser shoes provide lower ground pressure (4.64 psi) than the standard EX model — ideal for soft terrain, sensitive environmental work zones, compacted slopes, and areas where minimizing ground disturbance is a project requirement.
Electronically Controlled Hydrostatic Transmission (HST): Komatsu’s dual-path HST with Quick-Shift (3 speeds) and Variable Speed (20 speeds) modes delivers smooth, powerful turns with full counter-rotation. Fuel consumption is reduced by up to 13% compared to the prior generation — fully electronic control provides complete automatic shifting for any operator.
131 HP Tier 4 Final Engine: The SAA4D107E-3 water-cooled, variable geometry turbocharged 4.5L diesel engine delivers clean, reliable performance. Passive DPF regeneration via KDOC and SCR systems means no active regeneration downtime — the machine keeps working on your schedule.
Unrivaled Blade Visibility — Super-Slant Nose Design: Komatsu’s innovative super-slant nose provides outstanding forward blade visibility. The cab-forward ROPS design with large tinted glass panels gives operators a clear line of sight to both the blade cutting edge and the material being moved — improving accuracy, safety, and efficiency.
Parallel Link Undercarriage System (PLUS): Rotating bushing technology eliminates bushing turn costs and downtime. Strengthened rollers and links extend wear life up to two times, with up to 40% lower undercarriage maintenance costs versus conventional designs. Individual links are field-replaceable with common track tools.
Palm Command Control System (PCCS): The ergonomic, low-effort PCCS joystick controls all travel direction, speed, blade lift/tilt/angle, and counter-rotation from a single handle. Electronic Proportional Control (EPC) delivers precise, responsive blade control. An adjustable decelerator/brake pedal provides flexible speed management.
Integrated ROPS/FOPS Enclosed Cab: Meets ISO 3471 ROPS and ISO 3449 FOPS standards. Features air-suspended heated seat with lumbar support, full A/C, Bluetooth/USB radio, rear-view monitor camera (synchronized with reverse), two 12V power outlets, aux audio input, and a large high-resolution LCD display in 26 languages.
P & E Selectable Working Modes: P (Power) mode delivers full engine output for heavy-load, uphill, and high-production work. E (Economy) mode provides fuel-efficient operation for grading, leveling, and light-load conditions. The onboard ecology gauge and real-time fuel consumption display support efficient operation throughout every shift.
Swing-Up Fan — Easy Access Maintenance: A gas strut-assisted swing-up fan provides clear, safe access to the side-by-side radiator, oil cooler, and charge air cooler. The reversible hydraulic fan automatically clears debris restricting airflow. Centrally located service points minimize scheduled maintenance time on site.
Versatile Applications Across BC: Land clearing, road construction, site grading and preparation, fill spreading and compaction support, pipeline right-of-way, utility corridor work, and environmental reclamation — the D51PX-24 is available for delivery across the Fraser Valley, Lower Mainland, and Vancouver Island.
