  • Engine technology reduces emissions, lowers combustion chamber temperatures and optimizes combustion to generate more work output from every unit of fuel.
  • Hydraulic demand fan automatically adjusts according to engine cooling requirements. When cooling demand is reduced, you benefit from more power to the ground and improved fuel efficiency.
  • Engine Idle Shutdown feature can be software-enabled by your Cat dealer to shut down the engine after a set period of time to save you fuel and help reduce emissions.
  • TheMotor Graders to give you efficiency and stand up to the most demanding applications:
  • Standard Automatic Differential Lock/Unlock unlocks the differential during a turn and re-locks when straight for easier operation and to help protect the power train.
  • Full Electronic Clutch Pressure Control system optimizes inching modulation for smooth shifts and directional changes, reducing stress on gears.
  • Programmable AutoShift option simplifies operation by allowing the operator to program the transmission to shift at optimal points to match each application.
  • Power Shift Countershaft Transmission is matched to the Cat engine to maximize power to the ground.
  • Wide operating gear range for maximum productivity.
  • Engine Over-Speed Protection prevents downshifting until an acceptable safe travel speed has been established.
  • Sealed spindle keeps front axle bearings lubricated and protected from contaminants. Cat “Live Spindle” design places the larger tapered roller bearing on the outside, where the load is greater, extending life.
  • Bolt-on modular rear axle improves serviceability and contamination control with easy access to differential components.
  • Oil-bath, multi-disc service brakes are hydraulically actuated for smooth, predictable braking and lower operating costs. Brakes are located at each tandem wheel and have a large total brake surface area to provide dependable stopping power and longer life.

HEAVY DUTY CONSTRUCTION

  • One-piece forged steel circle stands up to high stress loads, and a sacrificial wear system helps keep your service time and costs down.
  • Articulation hitch features a large tapered roller bearing to carry loads evenly. The bearing is sealed preventing contamination and a locking pin prevents articulation during service or transport.
  • The drawbar, circle and moldboard are designed to make it easy for you to keep the components tight.
  • Shims and patented top-adjust wear strips are easy to add or replace, dramatically reducing downtime.
  • 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 control.
  • With an aggressive blade angle, optimized moldboard curvature and large throat clearance, 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 provide greater moldboard reliability and long service life.
  • Link bar allows extreme moldboard positioning for easier bank sloping and ditch cutting/cleaning.
  • Proven load-sensing and advanced electro-hydraulics give you superior implement control and responsive hydraulic performance that makes operators' jobs easier.
  • Continuously matching hydraulic flow/pressure to power demands reduces heat and optimizes power.
  • Proportional Priority Pressure-Compensating (PPP-C) valves have different flow rates for the head and rod ends of the cylinder, so you can count on consistent, predictable implement response.
  • Hydraulic flow is proportioned to give you confidence that all implements operate simultaneously without slowing engine or implement speed.
  • Blade Float allows the blade to move freely under its own weight.
  • Float both cylinders, to allow blade can follow the contours of the ground.
  • Float one cylinder to permit the toe of the blade to follow a hard surface while the operator controls slope with the other cylinder.
  • Large, independent hydraulic oil supplies prevent cross-contamination and provide proper cooling, reducing heat build-up and extending component life.
  • Cat XT™ hose allows high pressures for maximum power and reduced downtime.
