On my phone so going to make this short and sweet, for now... Machine only has 1,400 hours, JRB hydraulic quick coupler, 2.0 yard JRB bucket, JRB forks, 12' pusher. Going to look at adding a diverter valve for auxiliary hydraulics for a power angle plow. This is our first Komatsu machine, we have Bobcat skids, CTL's, mini excavators, and an Ingersoll Rand WL 440, along with a bunch of compaction equipment. Anything in particular we should check/look out for on these? I also want to at least have the keys custom cut, or doessanyone know if Komatsu offers a keyless entry pad like Bobcat does? And how easy is it to install/ballpark part price. Thanks, Jim

    It may have an extra spool on the valve depends on what unit was spec'd for. And no to the key pad just the keys.

    Thanks for your reply. Have you had Komatsu keys recut and all locks/ignition rekeyed before, and if so, what is a ballpark price on that? I was thinking of maybe just doing ignition, but then you need 2 keys. At the end of the day you can't prevent theft, just inhibit it. That's what the insurance is for. I really hope more OEM's go to the keypads. Just makes life easier
