POWERFUL EFFICIENCY
See more
Reliable performance, long life, low emissions.
High productivity and fuel efficient.
Two engine options available that meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards or U.S. EPA Tier 3 and EU Stage IIIA equivalent.
For the Tier 4 Final and Stage V option, the Cat Clean Emissions Module contains a diesel oxidation catalyst, diesel particulate filter, and Cat Regeneration System, utilizing SCR technology.
Regeneration is completely automatic and does not interrupt the machine’s work cycle.
Experience maximum responsiveness and control with Steering and Transmission Integrated Control System (STIC™).
Conserve more fuel with the automatic engine and electrical system shutdown.
Achieve greater momentum on grades and fuel savings by carrying that momentum through the shift points with the all new Advanced Productivity Electronic Control System (APECS) transmission controls.
Operators experience less fatigue with throttle lock to maintain engine speed.
PRODUCTIVITY WITH TECHNOLOGY
See more
Compact technology combines advanced compaction measurement, in-cab guidance, and reporting capabilities to help you consistently meet compaction targets fast, uniformly, and in fewer passes – saving on fuel and the cost of unnecessary rework.
-Optional 3D mapping system available
Link technology (standard) provides access to machine location, hours, fuel consumption, idle time, events, and diagnostic codes through the online VisionLink® interface.
WHEEL TIPS BUILT TO PERFORM
See more
Designed specifically to complement Cat machines.
Improves machine performance through longer wear life and maintaining traction.
Three wheel and tip configurations are available to meet your
particular application:
1) Paddle Tip – High performance and less fuel burn with more traction and less weight.
2) Plus Tip – Traditional design for increased side slope stability.
3) Combination Tip – Both paddle and plus tips provide the best compromise of performance and fuel economy with side slope stability.
