Features and benefit
Lockup torque converter
Engineered for exceptional production. Komatsu's lockup torque converter produces a more efficient transfer of power to the driveline, designed to help decrease cycle times and increase production.
Low undercarriage design
Equipped with a low drive undercarriage designed to help reduce wear and tear on your machine while still delivering comfort and stability. Minimal moving parts to help maintain high levels of traction and production when dozing and ripping.
Structural improvements
The D375A-8 features a more reliable mainframe with twice the design life over previous models, designed to reduce maintenance costs and machine downtime.
Blade auto-pitch
Designed to increase dozing efficiency while reducing operator efforts with blade auto-pitch mode.
Ripper auto-return
The new, ergonomic ripper control lever incorporates an auto-return function designed for less fatiguing operation, automatically raising the ripper after momentarily actuating the control lever while the machine is in reverse.
Track shoe slip control
Track shoe slip control automatically controls engine speed and minimizes slip during ripping operation, so your operator doesn't have to.
Operator comfort
Designed to maximize operator comfort and productivity with thoughtful design enhancements like an upgraded cab suspension and palm control joysticks.
Single blade linkage
Significantly reduced blade side sway with an all-new blade support structure. The new support structure has fewer maintenance points with enhanced visibility over previous models.
Maintenance features
The D375A-8 is engineered to minimize planned downtime and make maintenance efficient with features such as centralized greasing points, ground-level fill/evac service center and battery and starter isolators with lockout tagout functionality.
