Features

BUILT TO PERFORM

Unmatched Durability

    
• The full box-section rear frame resists torsional shock and twisting forces.
    
• Heavy-duty steering cylinder mounts efficiently transmit steering loads into the frame.
    
• Optimized axle mounting results in increased structural integrity.
    
• Achieve longer component life with increased size of upper hitch pin, frame plate, and bearing.
    
• Solid through-width push beams transfer and absorb stresses through a larger portion of the frame.
    
• Features fully enclosed hydraulic wet disc brakes for improved performance.
    
• Robust structures withstand the toughest conditions and multiple lifecycles to improve your bottom line.
    
• In corner dozing, stresses are transferred and absorbed through a larger portion of the frame.

MOVE MORE WITH LESS FUEL

Optimum Efficiency

    
• The Cat C18 engine is designed for maximum fuel efficiency in the most demanding applications.
    
• Experience reliable efficiency with complete control over injection timing, duration, and pressure with Mechanically Actuated Electronic Unit Injection (MEUI™).
    
• Best-in-class Cat planetary powershift transmission features consistent, smooth shifting and efficiency through integrated electronic controls.
    
• Extended engine life and improved fuel efficiency with reduced rated speed.
    
• Impeller Clutch Torque Converter (ICTC) and Rimpull Control System (RCS) provide precise rimpull control.
    
• Load sensing hydraulic steering system enables precise machine control for easier loading.
    
• Lock-up torque converter with advanced control of lock-up speed.
    
• On demand cooling fan protects investment and lengthens lifecycle.
    
• Fully integrated electronic engine controls provide quick response.

SAFETY FIRST

Increased Safety

    
• Optional Cat Detect with Object Detection System (rearview camera and radar) or standard Vision (rearview camera) increase operator awareness around the machine.
    
• Cab-mounted LED strobes provide warning for others near the machine.
    
• Optional HID or LED lights provide excellent workspace visibility.
    
• Optional heated mirrors ensure enhanced visibility for safe operation.

TECHNOLOGY THAT GETS WORK DONE

Innovative Technology

    
• Integrated technologies allow you to monitor, manage, and enhance your jobsite operations.
    
• Product Link™ remote monitoring provides valuable insight into machine or fleet performance through the VisionLink® interface, so you can make decisions that boost jobsite efficiency and lower operating costs.
    
• Vital Information Management System (VIMS™) 3G touchscreen monitor gives access to a wide range of sensor information and enhanced machine data to resolve problems before machine failure.
    
• Optional Cat Detect technologies enhance awareness of the environment around the machine for increased safety.

WORK IN COMFORT

Enhanced Operator Comfort

    
• Steering and Transmission Integrated Control System (STIC™) combines directional selection, gear selection, and steering into a single lever, maximizing responsiveness and control, while reducing operator fatigue.
    
• Operators can easily enter and exit the cab with fold-up STIC steer/ armrest, reduced access stairway angles, and standard stairway lighting.
    
• Experience reduced vibrations with isolated cab mounts and seatmounted implement and steering controls.
    
• Reduced interior sound levels keep operators comfortable throughout their entire shift.

REDUCE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

Improved Sustainability

    
• The engine is available in configurations that meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards, or equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 3 or U.S. EPA Tier 2.
    
• Automatic Engine Idle Shutdown conserves fuel when machine is not in use.
    
• Generate less waste with maintenance-free batteries.
    
• Maximize machine life and lower operating costs with Caterpillar Reman and Certified Rebuild programs, which utilize reused or remanufactured components for 40 to 70% cost savings.
    
• Retrofit packages from Caterpillar deliver new features to older machines to get the most from your investment.

SAVE ON SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

Simplified Maintenance

    
• Machine features ground level or platform access to easily reach daily service points.
    
• Swing-out doors on either side of the engine compartment provide easy access to critical daily service checks.
    
• Ecology drains prevent spills and allow for easier service.
    
• Intuitive design includes ground level access to transmission control valves for safe and convenient service.

PURPOSE-BUILT SPECIALTY MODELS

    
• Available in two scoop arrangements – wood chip and coal.
    
• Cat wood chip and coal scoops have the unique capability of maximizing your production by both dozing and carrying a load with each pass.
    
• A purpose built hydraulic system, optimized for use with this work tool, maximizes machine productivity and efficiency.
    
• Dual lift cylinders provide hydraulic lift capacity matched to the demands of the application.
    
• Can be equipped with optional ground level accessible swing-out reversing fan for quick inspection and easy cleanout.
    
• Equipped with underhood ventilation system which creates a neutral pressure environment to prevent wood chip ingestion from hood openings while providing fresh air to the alternator, electronics, and turbo.
    
• Extended top guard for increased capacity for wood chip scoops.
    
• Higher ground pressure decreases risk of fires and maximizes use of storage space.
    
• Less damage to coal or wood chips due to rubber tires.
    
• High ground speed provides ability to manage multiple piles.
    
• Scoop design allows load and carry function for mixing.
    
• Lift and tip-out design makes stockpiling operations easy.
    
• Scoop tilt control is standard to maximize worksite efficiency.
