735^Non-Current

ACERT Technology

The Cat® C15 ACERT™ engine introduces a series of evolutionary, incremental improvements that provide breakthrough engine technology built on systems and components developed by Caterpillar with proven reliability.

Advanced Diesel Engine Management (ADEM) A4 Engine Controller

The ADEM™ A4 electronic control module manages fuel delivery and provides flexible fuel mapping, allowing the engine to respond quickly to varying application needs.

Fuel Delivery

Multiple injection fuel delivery involves a high degree of precision. Precisely shaping the combustion cycle lowers combustion chamber temperatures, generating fewer emissions and optimizing fuel combustion. This translates into more work output for your fuel cost.

Noise Reduction Technologies

Noise reduction has been achieved through design changes to the isolated top cover, oil pan, multiple injection strategy, insulated timing case cover, sculpted crankcase and gear train refinements.

Electronic Transmission

The Caterpillar seven-speed electronically controlled transmission features anti-hunt shift strategy for speed continuity, and Individual Clutch Modulation (ICM) to ensure constant shift times.

Controlled Throttle Shifting (CTS)

Significantly reduces power train stress and clutch wear by controlling engine speed, torque converter lock-up and transmission clutch engagements.

Two Reverse Gears

The transmission arrangement provides a second reverse gear for improved performance when operating in longer rear hauling applications.

Front Suspension

The three-point front suspension oscillates ±6° to provide a smooth ride, allowing the operator to travel at speed over rough terrain and softening impact loads on structures and components. Large bore, low pressure cylinders are purpose designed for tough applications and offer a soft, smooth ride.

Enclosed, Oil-Cooled Brakes

Multi-plate, oil-immersed brakes are fitted to both front and center axles. These brakes provide outstanding stopping capability, while maintaining maximum durability and low wear characteristics.

Rear Suspension

Features a walking beam geometry with Caterpillar designed rear suspension mounts which provide a reliable and stable ride for excellent load retention.

Traction Control

The traction control system is comprised of a wet clutched inter-axle differential and wet clutched cross-axle differentials. All differentials can be engaged and disengaged "on-the-go" for maximum versatility. When used together, the differentials provide 100 percent driveline locking.

Inter-Axle Differential Lock

Locks all three axles in unison and modifies torque distribution for excellent traction in poor underfoot conditions and on grades. It is operated by a switch located at the footrest.

Cross-Axle Differential Locks

Provides full driveline locking - all three axles and all six wheels - for maximum performance in the most adverse conditions. Acts in unison with the inter-axle differential lock when the footswitch is actuated and the dash-mounted switch is selected.

Ride Comfort

The three-point front suspension with its oscillating axle and low-pressure ride struts, combined with the center-mounted cab, offers unrivaled levels of ride comfort for the operator in all driving conditions. The operator remains comfortable and productive throughout the day.

Spacious Two-Person Cab

The 735 features a large two-person cab, offering comfortable working space for both the operator and trainer or trainee. All 700 Family articulated trucks use the same spacious cab design.

Air Suspension Seat

The air suspension seat enhances operator comfort with a cushioned upper high back, adjustable damping with three settings, ride zone indicator and adjustable lumbar settings. It is fully adjustable to provide the optimal driving position.

Trainer Seat

Full-size trainer seat features a fully padded seat with a backrest and a wide seat belt for a secure and comfortable ride. The trainer seat is positioned next to the operator seat, giving both the operator and trainer a clear view of the instrument panel, controls and the road.

Steering Column

A comfortable driving position is provided by a telescopic and tilt adjustable steering column.

Ergonomic Layout

The controls and layout of the cab are designed to make it as easy to operate as your car. Quick, easy to read and simple to operate, the controls and gauges on the 735 allow the operator to concentrate on production.

Dash

The Generation II wrap-around dash puts all controls within easy reach of the operator. Featuring LED illuminated rocker switches, large LCD display and a rear wash wipe rocker switch. It provides an automotive feel with the industrial strength you would expect from Caterpillar.

Viewing Area

The low sloping hood and placement of the cooling package behind the cab give the operator excellent all-around visibility. The large glass area and central operator position also provide excellent visibility.

Wipers

The wet arm wiper system cleans more glass area and is bottom-mounted to keep it out of the operator's line of sight. Windows are tinted to reduce glare.

Differential Lock Controls

The inter-axle differential lock can be engaged/disengaged "on-the-go" by using a raised switch incorporated into the drivers foot rest, for ease of operation. For 100% lock up, all three cross-axle differential locks act in unison with the inter-axle differential lock when the foot switch is activated and a dash mounted switch is selected. Disengaging the foot switch opens all differential locks immediately.

Transmission and Hoist Levers

The hoist lever provides easy, comfortable operation. The transmission lever offers excellent comfort, and control for top gear limit, transmission hold and neutral lock.

Suspended Pedals

Easy to operate and reach with plenty of leg and foot room. They also make for easier cleaning of the cab floor by keeping the pedals out of the dirt.

Cat 2S Monitoring System

Provides an improved method of monitoring critical machine functions and alerts the operator to an immediate or impending problem. The system includes four levels of warning.

Front Frame

The front frame design features a large box section and wide, stiff frame beams to handle torque loads. The divergent frame design decreases stress in the hitch area and optimizes suspension geometry. The frame design makes maximum use of robotic welding for increased durability.

Rear Frame

Twin-box construction minimizes stress concentrations and provides low weight with long service life.

Suspension

The three-point oscillating axle front suspension provides unparalleled ride quality. It also protects the truck from adverse road conditions by absorbing shock loads that would reach the frame.

Articulating/Oscillating Hitch

The articulating hitch provides the truck with steering articulation, and the oscillation ensures all-wheel ground contact in rough terrain.

Hitch Construction

Two-piece construction features a durable cast steel head bolted to a hard-wearing forged steel tube.

Fast Hoist Cycle Times

Fast body raise and lower times mean less time spent in the dump area.

Load-Carrying Capacity

The 735 has a large target area to provide consistently high load-carrying capacity. Its diverging flow design gives clean load ejection, which maximizes production and avoids the waste of material carry-back.

Long Service Intervals

Long engine oil change and hydraulic oil change intervals lower maintenance costs and downtime. Wheel-bearing adjustment is completely eliminated.

Lube Points

Lube points are grouped at the rear of the front frame and the front of the rear frame. Universal joints are lubed for life, eliminating servicing. Autolube is optional.

Service Points

Engine and transmission dipstick and fill caps, air and fuel filters, and the fuel priming pump are all mounted on the left side of the engine under the electrically raised hood. Coolant level indicator and fill cap are outside the cab.

Radiator

The radiator package is located behind the cab, which provides protection from frontal impacts and offers easy access to the inlet and outlet sides of the radiator. The ATTAC radiator is located at the front of the truck.

Extended Life Coolant

Extends the change interval and improves component life by reducing aluminum corrosion.

Electrical Service Center

Located inside the cab, this service center provides a power port, diagnostic connector and Cat Data Link connector.

Cat Data Link Connector

The Cat Data Link connector provides a plug-in using a laptop computer with Electronic Technician (ET) software.

Service Access

The cab tilts to the side to provide easy access underneath, which simplifies access of the transmission, drive shafts and hydraulic pumps. Machine electrical and hydraulic interfaces are located on the right side of the cab, behind a removable cab body panel for easy access.

Truck Transport

The suspension system eliminates the need to lower the suspension when transporting the truck, reducing maintenance and downtime.

Output Transfer Gear

Provides lubrication of all bearings and clutches using a distributed-pressure lubricated and filtered system.
