Benefits & Features
Cab Riser
Cab Access
Access to the cab is provided by a platform which extends around the riser to allow windshield cleaning.
Hydraulically Driven Generator Set
Controller Service
This new controller virtually eliminates traditional contractor maintenance.
Hydraulic Systems
Grapple Open/Close Circuit
The grapple open/close circuit works with the other implement circuits to deliver smooth, simultaneous, multi-function control.
Rotate Circuit
The rotate circuit provides a separate gear pump and fully adjustable control valve, which allows this configuration to meet various grapple manufacturer's flow requirements.
Magnet System Monitor/Controller
Magnet "On" Light
Magnet is turned on.
Generator "Hot" Light
Generator is overheated and must be cooled down. The generator should be run under "no load" until the indicator turns off.
Voltage Fault Light
Voltage too high or too low. May indicate service is required.
Ground Fault Light
The magnet, generator or cable is grounded. Service is required.
Over 75% Duty Cycle
The "magnet on" time exceeds 7.5 minutes in a ten minute time frame, indicating the operator technique needs to be adjusted.
Rotary Selector Switch
Rotary selector switch allows the operator to optimize the magnet performance for different grades of scrap from within the cab.
Booms and Sticks
Welded Box-Section Structures
Efficient design of welded box-section structures with thick, multi-plate fabrications in high stress areas allows structures to flex, dissipating stresses and maximizing strength.
Stress Relief
Stress relieving booms and sticks maximizes strength and minimizes structure weight.
Engine
Advanced Diesel Engine Module Fuel System
Advanced Diesel Engine Module fuel system controls the engine for optimal fuel injection, increased fuel efficiency, extended component life.
Turbocharged and Aftercooled
Turbocharged and aftercooled to increase engine power by burning fuel with greater efficiency.
Two-Piece Pistons
Two-piece piston design provides excellent strength with the steel crown and aluminum skirt for reduced weight.
Automatic Engine Control
Automatic Engine Control with convenient one-touch command. Three-stage control maximizes fuel efficiency and reduces sound levels.
Structures
Carbody Design
Advanced carbody design stands up to the toughest applications.
Carbody Plates
Thicker carbody plates and increased box-section height for increased weight and load capacities.
Robot-welded Track Roller Frames
Robot-welded track roller frames are press-formed, pentagonal units to deliver exceptional strength and service life.
Upper Frame
The upper frame is specifically designed for the scrap and material handling market.
Serviceability
Faster, Easier Maintenance
Faster, easier maintenance means improved uptime and a better value.
Ground Level Service Points
More ground level service points for fuel-water separator, engine oil filter, battery, radiator fluid level, window washer fluid and pilot system filter.
Filters
Improved filters and filter locations make maintenance easier.
Water Separator
Water separator removes water from fuel even when under pressure and is located in the radiator compartment.
Remote Greasing Block
Remote greasing block on the boom and two grease points for the swing bearing deliver grease to hard to reach locations.
Electronic Power Unit Control
Electronic Power Unit Control has diagnostic capabilities for Cat Dealer's use.
