[. . . ] A brake tensioning system holds the joystick in position until the operator moves it. The steering control automatically reduces steering sensitivity at higher ground speeds for comfortable and predictable control. Electronic Throttle Control Provides easy, precise and consistent throttle operation. An automatic/manual mode switch offers flexibility for different applications and operator preferences. Articulation Return-to-Center Automatically returns the machine to a straight frame position from any angle with the touch of a button. Auxiliary Pod and Ripper Control (Optional) Ergonomically positioned to allow simple, comfortable operation of the multiple hydraulic options. · Four fingertip controls and a mini joystick maximize control of up to six hydraulic circuits. [. . . ] · · · · Innovative Air Management Systems match turbo performance to rated output for high productivity, excellent fuel efficiency, long life and low operating costs. Cat NOx Reduction System captures, cools and routes a small quantity of exhaust gas back into the combustion chamber where it lowers combustion temperatures and reduces NOx emissions. Cat Regeneration System (CRS) is used when supplemental regeneration is needed. CRS elevates exhaust gas temperatures to promote oxidation and burn off soot in the Diesel Particulate Filter. Cat Clean Emissions Module (CEM), a flexible Caterpillar-designed modular system, protects the components, minimizes the after-treatment footprint and simplifies maintenance. Performance The Cat C9. 3 engine has superior torque and lugging capability to pull through sudden, short-term loads and maintain consistent, desirable grading speeds to get work done faster without downshifting. Hydraulic Demand Fan Cooling fan speed automatically adjusts according to engine cooling needs, reducing demand on the engine, putting more horsepower to the ground and improving fuel efficiency. High Pressure Common Rail Fuel Systems Improves precision and control with full electronic injection that boosts performance and reduces soot. 5 Power Train Maximum power to the ground. Front Axle The Cat sealed spindle keeps bearings free from contaminants and lubricated in a light weight oil. The Cat "Live Spindle" design places the larger tapered roller bearing outboard where the load is greater, extending bearing life. Inching Pedal Allows precise control of machine movements and excellent modulation, critical in close-quarter work or finish grading. Smooth Shifting Transmission Several key innovations ensure smooth, powerful shifts. · Full Electronic Clutch Pressure Control (ECPC) system optimizes inching modulation for smooth shifts and directional changes, reducing stress on gears. Controlled Throttle Shifting helps to smooth directional and gear changes without using the inching pedal. Load Compensation ensures consistent shift quality regardless of blade or machine load. Programmable Autoshift lets the operator match shift parameters to the job so shifts occur at optimal points. Power Shift Countershaft Transmission and the Cat C9. 3 engine maximize power to the ground. Product Link streamlines diagnostics, reducing downtime, maintenance scheduling and costs by communicating vital machine data and location. Nine scarifier shanks can also be added for additional versatility. Snow Removal Work Tools Multiple snow plow, snow wing and mounting options increase machine versatility and utilization throughout the year. 11 Safety Protect your most valuable resource. Designed with Protection in Mind Features are designed to enhance operator and job site safety, such as optional HID lighting, drop-down rear lights and a rear view camera. Among many standard safety features are laminated glass, back-up lights, perforated tandem walkways and grab rails. Operator Presence System The parking brake remains engaged and hydraulic implements disabled until the operator is seated and the machine is ready for safe operation. Secondary Steering System Automatically engages an electric hydraulic pump in case of a drop in steering pressure, allowing the operator to steer the machine to a stop. Hydraulic Lockout A simple switch located in the cab disables all implement functions while still providing machine steering control. This safety feature is especially useful while roading. Brake Systems 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, further increasing operational safety. Circle Drive Slip Clutch This standard feature protects the drawbar, circle and moldboard from shock loads when the blade encounters an immovable object. It also reduces the possibility of abrupt directional changes in poor traction conditions. Blade Lift Accumulators This optional feature uses accumulators to help absorb impact loads to the moldboard by allowing vertical blade travel. Blade lift accumulators reduce unnecessary wear and help to avoid unintended machine movement for increased operator safety. Front and Rear Fenders (Optional) To help reduce objects flying from the tires, as well as buildup of mud, snow and debris, optional fenders can be added. 12 Customer Support Renowned dealer service From helping you choose the right machine to financing and ongoing support, your Cat dealer provides the best in sales and service.
