DESCRIPTION
If you need to rent an excavator today that will provide optimal performance and productivity for your construction project, then a Komatsu PC228USLC-8 with hydraulic thumb is a great choice. A Komatsu PC228USLC-3 rental features a short tail swing profile, designed specifically for construction projects in confined areas. By reducing the tail swing, the PC228 excavator rental is perfect for your projects whether on roadways, bridges, urban areas, or anywhere space is limited.
The Komatsu PC228 is a demolition-ready excavator rental: when you rent a Komatsu PC228USLC-3 from Rent1, it will come equipped with full cab guarding and a hydraulic thumb. Its maximum digging depth of 21’9” and digging reach of 32’5” makes this excavator a versatile tool for all size commercial, residential, or industrial earthmoving, trench digging, basement excavation, and material handling projects. Rent this hydraulic excavator with an equipment operator from Rent1 to get your job done quickly and professionally. If you need to rent a similar-sized excavator with a conventional tail swing, then try renting the Komatsu PC200LC-8.
Power: The powerful turbocharged and air-to-air aftercooled Komatsu SAA6D107E-1 engine provides 110 kW 148 HP(net). The PC228 has an operating weight of 22,710kg (50,067 lb.) With an over-front ground-level lift capacity of 3,650kg (8,000 lb.), this hydraulic excavator offers high performance for all heavy material handling and dirt moving jobs.
Efficiency: This excavator engine is EPA Tier 3 and EU stage 3A emissions certified, without sacrificing power or machine productivity. This means that you’ll save costs on fuel and require less refills, improving productivity.
Visibility: Improve the visibility of your operators with an enlarged left-side mirror and addition of rear and side-view mirrors so that you can increase productivity and safety on the job site—vital whenever working with heavy equipment on busy construction sites.
Versatile: With multiple attachment options, including heavy duty buckets, ditch cleaning buckets, and hammer attachments, the Komatsu PC228USLC excavator is an extremely flexible construction tool that can be used for a variety of demolition, excavation, earthmoving, and material handling projects.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Q. What kind of insurance do I need for my excavator rental?
Heavy equipment insurance is required on all rental products, no matter where they come from. Get a hold of your insurance provider and let them know you need heavy equipment insurance, which is sometimes called contractor equipment insurance, or fleet-truck insurance. Tell them that you’re renting a Komatsu PC228USLC-8 and let them know how long you’re renting it for. They will likely be able to create a policy for you right away, or they can usually recommend a heavy equipment insurance provider in your area.
Q. What if I need maintenance on a machine while I’ve rented it?
All our machines go through a thorough mechanical inspection before we ship them to your job site, so maintenance should never be a problem during your rental. In the rare circumstance where you do need maintenance, just call us at 604-359-6057 and we’ll send someone out to repair or replace the machine.
Q. What should I do when I receive my rental?
