Komatsu KomVision Supplement Hydraulic Excavator Operation and Maintenance Manual (UENAM01350)

On a hydraulic excavator working in tight jobsites, near structures, trucks, and foot traffic, KomVision is what helps you see what’s happening around the machine. This supplement shows you how to use that camera/monitor system correctly so you can keep the iron moving without bumping into anything. I’d pull this manual out when an operator says the KomVision image is confusing, delayed, or not coming up at all, and walk through the basic checks and monitor operations before calling in a laptop or parts.

Applications & Use Cases

• Set up KomVision for daily use, so operators start each shift with the right views and warnings active.
• Trace visibility issues, like dark images or blind spots, back to dirty lenses, wrong settings, or simple wiring checks.
• Verify monitor operation after a repair or replacement, making sure the display responds properly to lever movements.
• Train new operators on what KomVision is showing them, so they don’t ignore useful alerts or misread the surroundings.
• Plan preventive checks around the cameras and monitor to avoid sudden loss of visibility in the middle of a job.

FAQ

Q: Can I keep this manual on a tablet in the cab?

A: Yes, it’s handy to have digitally so the operator can reference the monitor steps right from the seat.

Q: Is it worth printing parts of this manual?

A: Printing the key operating pages and laminating them works well for quick reference during pre-start checks.

Safety Note

Always treat KomVision as an aid, not a replacement for proper walk-around inspections and direct visual checks.
