Caterpillar Landfill Blades
The Caterpillar landfill blades increase the dozing capacity in trash and help prevent material from spilling over the blade and entering the radiator. Wear plates are available and are recommended when working in highly abrasive materials.
Front Striker Bars
The front striker bars angled design prevents debris from riding up the track and damaging the fenders or fuel and hydraulic tanks.
Fast Fuel System
The optional fast fuel system, with positive fuel shut-off to prevent fuel spillage, can decrease downtime.
Black Painted Hood, Cylinders, and Back of Blade
The black painted hood, cylinders, and back of blade reduces glare from lights while operating at night and while operating in direct sunlight.
Hydraulic Rippers
Hydraulic rippers are available as single or multi-shank to penetrate tough material fast and rip thoroughly.
Computer Aided Earthmoving System (CAES)
The Computer Aided Earthmoving System (CAES) is a high technology earthmoving tool that allows machine operators to achieve maximum landfill compaction, desired grade/slope, and conserve and ensure even distribution of valuable cover soil with increased accuracy. This state-of-the-art machine control system delivers real-time elevation, compaction and grade control information to machine operators on an in-cab display. By monitoring grade and compaction progress, operators have the information they need to maximize the efficiency of the machine, resulting in proper drainage and optimum airspace utilization.
Beacon Light
A heavy-duty Federal Signal Pulsator 551 single flash (5 joules) strobe beacon unit is weather sealed and water resistant with the power supply encased in gel. The beacon is wired directly and can only be turned off by the disconnect switch. Extends above the highest part of the machine for enhanced visibility.
Remote Disconnect
Located in the cab, the remote disconnect switch is in series with the standard machine disconnect. The switch, located on the left side of the operator seat at knee level, allows the operator to access the disconnect switch quickly.
Trapezoidal Hole Track Shoes
The trapezoidal hole track shoes reduce refuse packing within the track and reduces track chain tightening and accelerated pin and bushing wear. The trapezoidal holes relieve packing by allowing the sprocket to punch out dirt and debris.
