Benefits & Features

EASY TO OPERATE

    • Updated cab, with an Integrated Roll Over Protection Structure (ROPS), gives operators greater all around visibility to enhance safety and productivity.
    • Quieter interior, with improved pressurization, helps keep dust out for a cleaner operating environment.
    • Pilot hydraulic implement controls reduce operator effort and offer more consistent, precise and responsive operation.
    • Single handle control for all direction and gear selection.
    • Tiller bar control allows the operator to work more precisely in close areas.

PERFORMANCE AND PRODUCTIVITY

    • Cat 3406 engine allows the D8R to doze through tough material.
    • Differential Steering maintains full power to both tracks for best-in-class turning, even with a full blade load.
    • Load Sensing Hydraulics continuously adjust hydraulic power to maximize your efficiency; dedicated implement pump ensures adequate available hydraulic power.
    • Advanced Modular Cooling System has excellent cooling capacity with increased air flow, allowing the machine to work in the most demanding environments.

BUILT FOR LONG TERM PRODUCTION

    • Caterpillar elevated sprocket design isolates final drives from ground induced impacts.
    • Suspended undercarriage provides a smooth ride and better traction in uneven terrain.
    • More than 35 years of experience with elevated sprocket/suspended undercarriage design.
