[. . . ] Solid steel lift arms resist twisting for maximum durability and reliability. 6 Hydraulics Powerful Cat hydraulics deliver the power and control needed to keep material moving. Technologically advanced system provides precise, low-effort control and trouble-free operation. Most routine service can be accomplished from ground level and diagnostic ports have been clustered to improve efficiency. [. . . ] A more aggressive spade edge increases bucket penetration and fill factors and provides better retention of loose material. An integral rock guard helps retain big loads for greater fill factors and optimum truck loading. Spade edge rock buckets with bolt-on segments are designed to penetrate through the pile while leaving a smooth work floor. Shouldered, double-strap adapters allow easy change-out, and bolt-on segments extend base edge life. Serrated edge bucket is recommended for low abrasion material loading where greater penetration is required. It does not use GET, thus eliminating the risk of iron falling into crushers. Lift, lower and bucket tilt automatic kickouts are adjustable electronically from the cab. Allows the operator to preset the engine speed, resulting in faster cycle times and increased productivity. Allows operator to match rimpull settings to job conditions with four-position dial. Operator can adjust maximum rimpull from 100% down to 90, 85, 75 and 65% while in first gear. Matching rimpull to job conditions provides greater traction in slippery or rough conditions for better performance and longer tire life. · Category III ­ Immediate shutdown required to prevent serious damage to machine or system. The Wheel Loader payload system displays the current bucket weights along with the target of the truck being loaded, resulting in the ability to manage payloads. Also has the ability to track material and trucks for production analysis. VIMS system stores up to 1200 cycles that would include date, time, truck ID, operator ID, material description, load site description, blast #, fuel used, bucket weight, bucket status and machine status. · transmission oil temperature · · hydraulic oil temperature fuel level Speedometer/Tachometer Module. Provides operator or service technician immediate access to current machine information, gauge values and stored data through the message center display. Displays payload bucket weights and messages requested by operator and advises operator of abnormal machine conditions. Three-category warning system alerts operator of abnormal machine health conditions. VIMS PC Software. VIMS PC software, the off-board reporting software program, allows service personnel to download a complete record of machine health and productivity data to a laptop computer for diagnosis and analysis. Easy-to-use software enables service technicians and mine management to generate health and payload reports for more effective machine management. On sites with multiple VIMS machines and where VIMS PC software is used to download all data, the use of VIMS Supervisor can aid in quick analysis of VIMS data. VIMS Supervisor can generate Health and Production report summaries for a single machine or an entire fleet. [. . . ] · The exterior sound pressure level for the standard machine measured at a distance of 15 m (49. 2 ft) according to the test procedures specified in SAE J88 JUN86, mid-gear-moving operation, is 87 dB(A). · The sound power level is 115 dB(A) measured according to the dynamic test procedure and conditions specified in ISO 6395:1988/Amd.

The following table provides a guideline for bucket selection based on various material densities and estimated fill factors. Based on the new ratings, fill factors are expected to be 110-120% in cohesive materials with easy digging, 100-110% in typical shot rock loading, and 90-100% in poorly shot rock with large rocks and difficult penetration.
