Features

PERFORMANCE AND PRODUCTIVITY

  • Cat C7 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 3/EU Stage IIIA equivalent or Tier 2/Stage II equivalent emissions standards, depending on emission standards of specific country.
  • Power Shift Countershaft Transmission matched to engine, maximizing power to the ground.

POWERFUL EFFICIENCY

  • Electronic Throttle Control helps improve productivity by optimizing HP and torque to match the power demands of the application.
  • Aggressive blade angles, optimized moldboard curvature and large throat clearance allows material to roll more freely along blade, increasing efficiency.
  • Hydraulic demand fan automatically adjusts speed according to cooling requirements maximizing power to the ground and improving fuel efficiency.
  • Engine Idle Shutdown is available to shut down engine after a set period of time, saving fuel and helping reduce emissions.

SIMPLE TO OPERATE

  • Proportional Priority Pressure-Compensating (PPPC) provides load-sensing hydraulics with superior control, enhanced performance, and efficiency.
  • Optional AutoShift Transmission improves ease of operation and maximizes productivity by automatically shifting the transmission at optimal shift points.
  • Rocker and control switches are in easy reach.
  • Proven conventional controls provide industry-standard control pattern and feel for precise cutting edge movement.

SAVE MAINTENANCE TIME

  • Durable nylon composite wear inserts maximize circle torque and component life.
  • Sacrificial brass moldboard slide rail wear strips between blade mounting group and moldboard can be easily adjusted and replaced.
  • Left-side, ground level service area access speeds up maintenance and ensures that routine service is performed on time.

HEAVY DUTY CONSTRUCTION

  • Utilizing rigorous component design and machine validation processes results in unmatched reliability, durability and high uptime.
  • Components are designed and manufactured to Caterpillar quality standards throughout all Caterpillar facilities.
