3.7 Machines equipped with KOMTRAX
KOMTRAX is a machine management system that uses wireless
communications.
KOMTRAX is a wireless device operating at radio frequencies. It
requires approval and needs to conform to the laws of the country
or territory where the machine equipped with KOMTRAX is used.
Always contact your Komatsu distributor before selling or export-
ing any machine equipped with KOMTRAX.
When selling or exporting the machine, or in other cases when
your Komatsu distributor considers it necessary, it may be that the
KOMTRAX unit needs to be removed or rendered inoperable.
If these precautions are not followed, neither Komatsu nor your
Komatsu distributor will be liable for any resulting problems or
losses.
3.7.1 Basic precautions
WARNING
 Never disassemble, repair, modify, or move the communica-
tions terminal, the antenna, or the cables. Non-compliance
may cause failure or fire at the KOMTRAX unit or at the
machine itself. (KOMTRAX may be installed and removed by
your Komatsu distributor.)
 Prevent cables and wires from snagging. Do not damage or
pull cables by force. Short circuits or disconnected wires may
cause failure or fire at the KOMTRAX unit or at the machine
itself.
 For anyone wearing a pacemaker, make sure that the com-
munications antenna is at least 22 cm from the pacemaker.
The radio waves may have an adverse effect on the operation
of the pacemaker.
NOTICE
 Even when the key in the starting switch of machine equipped
with the the KOMTRAX system is in the (OFF) position, a
small amount of electric power is consumed. If the machine
is being stored for one or more months, follow the instructions
under “Long-term storage (3-108)”.
 Please contact your Komatsu distributor before installing a
top guard or any other attachment that covers the cab roof.
 Be careful to prevent water from spilling on the communica-
tions terminal or the wiring.
REMARK
