Komatsu D31PLL-21A Bulldozer Specs

The document provides specifications for the D31PLL-21A bulldozer from Komatsu. Key points: - The D31PLL is well-suited for farming and working in swamp areas due to its low ground pressure of 0.17 kgf/cm2. - It has a wide blade and track design optimized for leveling work in soft soils and paddy fields. - Power is transmitted through a closed HST system for continuous and smooth operation in travel and work modes.

3 Point Linkage
 Compare with D21PL

Top link Basic structure is same between D21PL and


D31PLL.
D21PL The difference is that D21PL has the tilt cylinder
Lift cylinder
but D31PLL does not. D31PLL has 2 tilt rod
instead of tilt cylinder.
Tilt rod
<Reason>
・D31PLL has lower ground pressure and better
Tilt cylinder weight balance than D21PL.

Rear PTO ・Not easy to sink

Lower link ・Not many opportunities to tilt the attachment

 Traveling & Steering Pedals

Traveling
A : Forward
N : Neutral
B : Reverse Brake Decelerator
U : Shift Up Brake pedal : Travel speed is reduced according
D : Shift Down to the amount the pedal is depressed. When the
operating effort becomes stronger, the machine
Steering stops.
L : Left turn
R : Right turn Engine rpm doesn’t reduce. Reduce only travel
speed.

If the lever is at the FORWARD or REVERSE Decelerator pedal : This pedal is used to reduce
position and it is operated to the left or right, the engine speed and travel speed. When switching
machine will turn in the direction that the lever is between forward and reverse travel, or when
operated. If the lever is operated to the left or stopping the machine, depress this pedal to
right to a position where it becomes heavy, the reduce travel speed first.
turning radius will become smaller(= spin turn). Both engine rpm and travel speed are reduced.
Forward + Right Forward + Right (stroke end)
Or Reverse + Left (stroke end)
For smooth starting,
1) Select gear (1st, 2 nd, 3 rd)
2) Raise up engine rpm by fuel lever
3) Depress decelerator pedal full stroke
4) Forward (reverse) the traveling lever
5) Go back up decelerator pedal slowly
6) The machine starts moving slowly
