Abstract


The Komatsu D85ESS-2 dozer is one of the heavy machines employed by PT. Andhifa Kharisma Borneo Pratama (AKBP) at the PT. Prolindo Cipta Nusantara (PCNS) site in coal mining operations. This dozer is utilized for tasks such as excavation, grading, material pushing, and hauling logs or portable camps. However, due to several factors, this unit has experienced an "engine low power" issue, impacting its performance. This report addresses the root causes of this problem and proposes solutions to prevent recurrence. This study uses an observational approach aimed at identifying and analyzing the factors causing the low power issue. Data collection was conducted by gathering relevant information about the unit’s operational conditions as experienced by operators in the field. A systematic troubleshooting procedure was applied to detect and resolve issues, allowing for precise repairs to restore the unit's performance. The study follows an 8-step troubleshooting process and uses a troubleshooting chart to assess the symptoms of the low-power issue. Findings indicate that engine low power was caused by sediment buildup in the fuel filter, which restricted fuel flow to the nozzle, leading to reduced fuel injection.
