Expert rating: 3 stars

Performance & Efficiency

The 115.59 kilowatt NH220-CI engine gives the D60S enough power for digging, pushing, loading, backfilling, and rough material handling. Its 1.83 cu m bucket, 13,299.34 kg breakout force, 10,800 kg tipping load, and 0.72 bar ground pressure make it useful where traction and stability matter more than travel speed.

In Comparison

John Deere 655: Practical crawler loader with good general-purpose loading ability.
Komatsu D70: Larger Komatsu option with stronger heavy-earthmoving appeal.
Komatsu D60S: Strong value for buyers who need tracked traction and breakout force in a lower-cost used machine.

Final Verdict

Rated 3 stars, the Komatsu D60S is a capable older crawler loader within the AED 45,000–88,000 range. It offers strong loading force and good traction, but value depends heavily on undercarriage health, hydraulic condition, and engine service history.
