• The drawbar, circle and moldboard make it easy for you to keep the components tight.
• Shims and patented top-adjust wear strips are easy to add or replace, reducing downtime.
• Durable nylon composite wear inserts maximize circle torque and component life.
• Sacrificial brass wear strips between the blade mounting group and moldboard can be easily adjusted and replaced.
• Shim less Moldboard Retention System uses vertical and horizontal adjusting screws to keep moldboard wear strips aligned for reduced blade chatter and precise blade control.
• An aggressive blade angle, optimized moldboard curvature and large throat clearance help you work more efficiently by allowing material to roll more freely along the blade.
• Heat-treated rails, hardened cutting edges and end bits, and heavy duty bolts to give you greater moldboard reliability and long service life.
• Link bar allows extreme moldboard positioning for easier bank sloping and ditch cutting/cleaning.

• Proven load-sensing system and advanced electro-hydraulics give you superior implement control and responsive hydraulic performance. Continuously matching hydraulic flow/pressure to power demands generates less heat and reduces fuel consumption.
• Proportional Priority Pressure-Compensating (PPP-C) valves have different flow rates for the head and rod ends of the cylinder. Count on consistent, predictable implement response.
• Balanced hydraulic flow is proportioned ensuring implements operate simultaneously without slowing the engine or implement reaction time.
• Blade Float allows the blade to move freely under its own weight.
• Float both cylinders allowing the blade to follow the ground contours
• Floating only one cylinder permits the toe of the blade to follow a hard surface while the operator controls the slope with the other lift cylinder.
• Large, separate hydraulic oil supplies prevent cross-contamination and provide proper oil cooling, which reduces heat build-up and extends component life.
• Cat XT™ hose allows high pressures for maximum power and reduced downtime.

• Cat Technology makes smart use of technology and services to improve job site efficiency. Using the data from technology equipped machines, get more information and insight into equipment and operations
• Cat technologies offer improvements in these key areas:
• Equipment Management – increase uptime and reduce operating costs.
• Productivity – monitor production and manage job site efficiency.
• Safety – enhance job site awareness to keep your people and equipment safe.
• Featured Cat technologies include –

1. Link technologies that provide wireless capability to machines enabling two-way transfer of information collected by on-board sensors, control modules, and other Cat technologies using off-board apps, such as Cat VisionLink® software.
2. Cat Product Link Elite is deeply integrated, helping take guesswork out of equipment management. Easy access to timely information like machine location, hours, fuel usage, idle time and event codes via the online VisionLink user interface helps effectively manage fleet and lower operating costs.
3. Grade technologies combine digital design data, in-cab guidance, and automatic blade controls to enhance grading accuracy, reduce rework, and lower costs related to production earthmoving and rough, fine and finish grade applications.
4. Cat GRADE with Cross Slope is an optional, factory installed system that helps improve grading efficiency and more easily maintain accurate cross slopes. The system automatically controls one side of the blade, reducing manual operator inputs by as much as 50 percent. Experienced operators can maintain peak efficiency levels throughout more of the work day, while less experienced operators can be more productive faster. The system is job-ready from day one, and scalable for the future with AccuGrade™ upgrade kits that provide additional 2D and/or 3D control.

• Optional Stable Blade system detects bounce through an accelerometer and reduces engine rpm at 15 percent intervals to stabilize machine bounce. Once the motor grader has stabilized, Stable Blade will increase engine speed back to the initial set level. The throttle will not be reduced below 1,200 rpm.
• Optional Auto Articulation is active in gears 1-4F and 1-3R and allows the motor grader to automatically articulate to match the steering angle of the front tires. The system is tuned to allow full articulation at full steering angle and is modulated for maximum performance.
• Cat Messenger, combined with full systems integration, enhances diagnostic capability for quick analysis of critical data.
• Electronic Technician (Cat ET) lets service technicians access stored diagnostic data and configure machine parameters through the Cat Data Link.
• Low Battery Elevated Idle raises idle speed when low system voltage is detected, ensuring adequate system voltage and improving battery reliability.
• Automatic Engine Deration protects the engine by automatically lowering engine torque output and alerting the operator if critical conditions are detected.

• Operator Presence Monitor keeps the parking brake engaged and hydraulic implements disabled until the operator is seated and the machine is ready for operation.
• Speed Sensitive Steering lessens steering sensitivity as ground speed increases for greater operator confidence and control.
• Secondary Steering System’s electric hydraulic pump automatically engages in case of a drop in steering pressure to ensure operator can steer the machine to a stop.
• Hydraulic lockout disables all implement functions while still providing machine steering control. Especially useful while roading.
• Brakes are located at each tandem wheel to eliminate braking loads on the power train. Redundant brake systems utilize accumulators to enable stopping in case of machine failure.
• Perforated steel tandem walkways and convenient grab rails provide a sturdy platform when moving on, off and around the machine.
• Circle Drive Slip Clutch protects the drawbar, circle and moldboard from shock loads if the blade encounters an immovable object and also reduces the possibility of abrupt directional changes in poor traction conditions.
• Blade Lift Accumulators help absorb impact loads by allowing vertical blade travel. This optional feature reduces wear and impact loading for enhanced operator safety.
