Hydraulic Horsepower, a Cat Advantage

Hydraulic horsepower is the actual machine power available to do work through implements and work tools. It's much more than just the engine power under the hood – it's a core strength that differentiates Cat machines from other brands. In fact, pump and other system components work to put more power to the ground, in a highly controlled, user-friendly way. This means you will move more material in less time and keep more money in your pocket at the end of the day.

Control Like No Other

The new Cat Adaptive Control System (ACS) valve optimizes performance by intelligently managing restrictions and flows to control machine motion, which means your operators will have the power and precision they need and expect. It opens slowly when your range of joystick lever movement is small and opens rapidly when movement is high. It smartly puts flow exactly where you need it when you need it, which leads to smoother operation, greater efficiency, and lower fuel consumption.

SmartBoom™ – Reduces Stress and Vibrations Transmitted to the Machine

• Rock Scraping - Scraping rock and finishing work is easy and fast. SmartBoom simplifies the task and allows the operator to fully concentrate on the stick and bucket while the boom freely goes up and down without using pump flow.
• Hammer Work - It has never been this productive and operator-friendly. The front parts automatically follow the hammer while penetrating the rock. Blank shots or excessive force on the hammer are avoided, resulting in longer life for the hammer and machine. Similar advantages are applicable when using vibratory plates.
• Truck Loading - Loading trucks from a bench is more productive and fuel efficient as the return cycle is reduced while the boom down function does not require pump flow.

Auxiliary Hydraulics for Added Versatility

Auxiliary hydraulics give you greater tool versatility so you can take on more work with just one machine, and there are several options from which you can choose. A quick coupler circuit, for example, will allow you to switch from one tool to another in a matter of minutes.

The Cat C15 ACERT engine meets Stage IV emission standards and it does so without interrupting your job process. Simply turn the engine on and go to work. It will look for opportunities in your work cycle to regenerate itself, and it will give you plenty of power for the task at hand – all to help keep your owning and operating costs to an absolute minimum.

Fuel Savers That Add Up

The 374F L features two power modes to help manage fuel consumption: standard power and economy. Two additional fuel-saving features are on-demand engine power and engine idle shutdown. On-demand engine power keeps speed low during light loading and idling; it automatically adjusts speed up when it senses a heavier load. Engine idle shutdown automatically shuts the engine off when idling for more than a specified amount of time that you set, which can save significant amounts of fuel and reduce emissions.

Biodiesel Not A Problem

The C15 engine can run on biodiesel fuel up to B20 blended with ULSD. Just fill it up and go.

A Smart Design for Any Temperature

The 374F L features a new side-by-side cooling system that allows you to put the machine to work in extremely hot and cold conditions. The system is completely separated from the engine compartment to reduce noise and heat. Plus it features easy-to-clean cores and a new variable-speed fan that reverses to blow out unwanted debris that may accumulate during your work day.

Power supply sockets are available for charging your electronic devices like an MP3 player, a cell phone, or even a tablet.

Controls Just for You

The right and left joystick consoles can be adjusted to improve your comfort and productivity during the course of a day. The right joystick features a button that will reduce engine speed when you are not working to help save fuel. Touch it once and speed reduces; touch it again and speed increases for normal operation.

Easy to Navigate Monitor

The new LCD monitor is easy to see and navigate. Not only can it memorize up to 10 different work tools, it's also programmable in up to 42 languages to meet today's diverse workforce. The monitor clearly displays critical information you need to operate efficiently and effectively. Plus it projects the image from the standard rearview camera to help you see what's going on around you so you can stay safely focused on the job at hand.

Stable Undercarriage

Long variable gauge undercarriage contributes significantly to its outstanding stability and durability, and it adjusts to reduce shipping width.

Track shoes, links, rollers, idlers, and final drives are all built with high-tensile-strength steel for long-term durability.

Cat GLT4 track link protects moving parts by keeping water, debris, and dust out and grease sealed in, which delivers longer wear life and reduced noise when traveling.

Positive Pin Retention 2 (PPR2) prevents looseness of the track pin in the track link, reduces stress concentrations, and eliminates pin walking for increased service life.

Optional three-piece guide guards help maintain track alignment to improve your machine's overall performance – whether you're traveling on a flat, heavy bed of rock or a steep, wet field of mud.

Robust Frames

The 374F L is a robust, well-built machine designed to give you a very long service life. The upper frame has mountings made specifically to support the heavy-duty cab. It's also reinforced around areas that take on a lot of stress like the boom foot, skirt, and counterweight removal system.

Great Weight

The pressed fixed 10 300 kg or removable 11 000 kg counterweights are built with thick steel plates and reinforced fabrications to make them less susceptible to damage, and both have curved surfaces that match the machine's sleek, smooth appearance along with integrated housings to help protect the standard rearview camera.

Built to Last

The 374F L is offered with a range of reach (R) and mass (ME) booms and sticks. Each is built with internal baffle plates and is stress relieved for added durability, and each undergoes ultrasound inspection to ensure quality and reliability. Large box-section structures with thick, multi-plate fabrications, castings, and forgings are used in high-stress areas such as the boom nose, boom foot, boom cylinder, and stick foot to improve durability. Also, the boom nose pin retention method is a captured flag design for enhanced durability.

Booms, Sticks and Bucket Linkage for Any Job

A 7.8 m reach boom (with 4.67 m or 4.15 m or 3.6 m or 2.84 m sticks) offer you excellent all-around versatility for general excavation work like multipurpose digging and loading. A 7.0 m mass boom (with 3.0 m or 2.57 m sticks) offer you enhanced performance in heavy-duty material like rock. They provide higher digging forces due to special boom and stick geometry, and bucket linkage and cylinders are built for greater durability.

Sticks are matched to the boom. Longer sticks are better for when you need to dig deep or load trucks.

Bucket linkages with or without a lifting eye are available.

Pins

All front linkage pins have thick chrome plating, giving them high wear resistance. Each pin diameter is made to distribute the shear and bending loads associated with the stick and to help ensure long pin, boom and stick life.

Talk to your Cat dealer to pick the best front linkage options for your applications.
