SAFETY INFORMATION
To enable you to use the machine safely, and to prevent personal injury to operators, service personnel or bystanders, the precautions and warnings included in this manual and the safety signs attached to the machine
must always be observed.
To identify important safety messages in the manual and on the machine labels, the following signal words are
used.
The "Safety Alert Symbol" identifies important safety messages on machines, in manuals, and elsewhere. When
you see this symbol, be alert to the risk of personal injury or death. Follow the instructions in the safety message.
This signal word indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
This signal word indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result
in death or serious injury.
This signal word indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result
in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices that may
cause property damage.
The following signal words are used to alert you to information that must be followed to avoid damage to the
machine.
If precautions described are not observed, the machine may be damaged or the service life
may be reduced.

SAFETY LABELSFOREWORD
SAFETY LABELS
Safety labels are affixed to the machine to inform the operator or maintenance worker on the spot when carrying
out operation or maintenance of the machine that may involve hazard.
This machine uses "Safety labels using pictograms" to indicate safety procedures.
SAFETY LABELS USING PICTOGRAMS
Safety pictograms use a picture to express a level of hazardous
condition equivalent to the signal word. These safety pictograms use pictures in order to let the operator or maintenance
worker understand the level and type of hazardous condition at
all times. Safety pictograms show the type of hazardous condition at the top or left side and the method of avoiding the hazardous condition at the bottom or right side. In addition, the
type of hazardous condition is displayed inside a triangle and
the method of avoiding the hazardous condition is shown inside
a circle.
Komatsu cannot predict every circumstance that might involve
a potential hazard in operation and maintenance. Therefore,
the safety messages in this manual and on the machine may
not include all possible safety precautions.
If any procedures or actions not specifically recommended or
allowed in this manual are used, it is your responsibility to take
the necessary steps to ensure safety
In no event should you engage in prohibited uses or actions described in this manual.
The explanations, values, and illustrations in this manual were prepared based on the latest information available at that time. Continuing improvements in the design of this machine can lead to changes in detail which may
not be reflected in this manual
Consult Komatsu or your Komatsu distributor for the latest available information of your machine or for questions regarding information in this manual.

FOREWORDNOISE
NOISE
Two labels indicating the machine noise level are affixed on the machine.
•Sound pressure level at the operator’s station, measured
according to ISO 6396 (Dynamic test method, simulated
working cycle).
The maximum value of the standard deviation of the measured time-averaged A-weighted emission sound pressure
level at the operator’s position is 2.5dB, in accordance with
ISO 11201
•Sound power level emitted by the machine, measured according to ISO 6395 (Dynamic test method, simulated
working cycle). This is the guaranteed value as specified in
European directive 2000/14/EC.
This value includes an uncertainty of 0.7 dB.
1-5
VIBRATION LEVELSFOREWORD
VIBRATION LEVELS
When used for its intended purpose, levels of vibration for the earth-moving machine transmitted from the operator's seat are lower than or equal to the tested vibrations for the relative machinery class in compliance with
ISO 7096.
For PC490-11, PC490LC-11
The actual acceleration value for the hands and arms is less than or equal to 2.5 m/s2 , the uncertainty for this
value is 0.25 m/s2 according to EN12096:1997.
The actual acceleration value for the body is less than or equal to 0.5 m/s2, the uncertainty for this value is 0.10
m/s2 according to EN12096:1997.
These values were determined using a representative machine and measured during the typical operating con-
dition indicated below according to the measurement procedures that are defined in the standards ISO 2631/1
and ISO 5349.
The following guides can help an operator of this machine to reduce the whole body vibration levels:
1.
Use the correct equipment and attachments.
2.
Maintain the machine according to this manual
•Tension of crawler (for crawler machines)
•Brake and steering systems
•Controls, hydraulic system and linkages
3.
Keep the terrain where the machine is working and travelling in good condition
•Remove any large rocks or obstacles
•Fill any ditches and holes
•Site manager should provide machine operators with machine and schedule time to maintain terrain
conditions
4.
Use a seat that meets ISO 7096 and keep the seat maintained and adjusted
•Adjust the seat and suspension for the weight and size of the operator
•Wear seat belt
•Inspect and maintain the seat suspension and adjustment mechanisms
5.
Steer, brake, accelerate, and move the attachment levers and pedals slowly so that the machine moves
smoothly
6.
Adjust the machine speed and travel path to minimize the vibration level
•When pushing with bucket or blade, avoid sudden loading; load gradually
•Drive around obstacles and rough terrain conditions
•Slow down when it is necessary to go over rough terrain
•Make the curve radius of travelling path as large as possible
•Travel at low speed when travelling around sharp curves
7.
Minimize vibrations for long work cycle or long distance travelling
•Reduce speed to prevent bounce
•Transport machines long distances between worksites
8.
The following guidelines can be effective to minimize risks of low back pain
•Operate the machine only when you are in good health
•Provide breaks to reduce long periods of sitting in the same posture

ENGINE TECHNOLOGY TO CONFORM EXHAUST GAS EMISSIONFOREWORD
ENGINE TECHNOLOGY TO CONFORM EXHAUST GAS
EMISSION
About Engine Technology
This engine technology combines a Komatsu Diesel Particulate Filter (KDPF) and Komatsu’s Urea Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR) to conform EU Stage IV emission regulation in the European Union.
•Komatsu Diesel Particulate Filter (KDPF): A device which captures diesel particular matter or soot in the
exhaust gas to purify exhaust gas. If soot is accumulated to a certain level in the filter, a purification process
to burn the soot is performed automatically to keep the filtering performance of KDPF high.
•Komatsu’s Urea SCR system: A device which decomposes the toxic nitrogen oxides (NOx) mixed in the
exhaust gas into harmless nitrogen and water. Spraying the reagent (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) into the exhaust
gas produces a reaction between the nitrogen oxides and ammonia generated from the urea solution and
decomposes the nitrogen oxides into nitrogen and water.
About Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
Diesel Exhaust Fluid is the reagent for the SCR system.
DEF is the abbreviation for Diesel Exhaust Fluid, and is represented as DEF throughout this manual.
DEF is a colorless transparent and aqueous urea solution made with 32.5 % urea (AUS32) and 67.5 % deion-
ized water. Urea as main constituent is a material which is used for cosmetics, medical and pharmaceutical
products, and fertilizer, etc.
Commercial DEF, commonly referred to as AdBlue® in the European Union, that quality standards are maintained in accordance with DIN70070 and ISO 22241-1, to be used.
AdBlue® is a registered trade-mark of VDA (Verband der Automobilindustrie e.V.: Automobile Association of
Germany).

To prevent SEVERE INJURY or DEATH, do the following before moving machine or its attachments:
•Sound horn to alert people nearby.
Be sure no one is on or near machine or in swing area.
Rotate cab for full view of travel path if it can be done safely.
Use spotter if view is obstructed.
Follow the above even if machine is equipped with travel
alarm, mirrors and rear view camera.
WARNING
To open or close the front or ceiling window, never
stand up from the operator's seat before throwing the
safety lock lever to the lock position.
Inadvertently touching any of the working equipment
