336D2 GC^Non-Current

Cab Structure and Mounts

The cab shell is attached to the frame with viscous rubber mounts, which dampen vibrations and sound levels while enhancing your comfort. Thick steel tubing along the bottom perimeter improves the cab's resistance to fatigue and vibration.

Seat

The suspension seat provides a variety of adjustments to accommodate a wide range of operators. The seat includes a reclining back, upper and lower seat slide adjustments, and height and tilt adjustments to meet your needs for comfort and productivity.

Joystick Control and Console

Low-effort pilot-operated joystick controls are designed to match your natural wrist and arm position for maximum comfort and minimum fatigue. The right and left joystick console can be adjusted to meet your individual preferences, improving overall comfort and productivity during the course of a long work day.

Monitor

The new monitor features a 40 percent larger screen with four times increased resolution display. The LCD monitor is equipped with a warning lamp and buzzer for critical engine oil pressure, coolant temperature and oil temperature. Programmable in up to 42 languages to meet today's diverse workforce, the monitor clearly displays critical information needed to operate efficiently and effectively.

Filters and fluid change intervals are available in the main menu which also projects the image from the optional rearview camera, further enhancing your job site safety and productivity.

Climate Control

Positive filtered ventilation with a pressurized cab is standard. Fresh air or re-circulated air can be selected with a switch on the left console.

Windows and Wipers

All glass is affixed directly to the cab to maximize visibility, eliminating window frames. The upper front windshield opens, closes, and stores on the roof above the operator with a one-touch action release system. Pillar-mounted wipers increase your viewing area and offer continuous and intermittent modes.

Emission Standards

The Cat C9 ACERT engine has been designed to meet Tier 2, Stage II, Japan 2001 (Tier 2) equivalent, or Tier 3, Stage IIIA, Japan 2006 (Tier 3) equivalent emission standards and China Stage III Nonroad emission standards. The fuel efficient engine incorporates proven robust components and precision manufacturing you can count on for reliable and efficient operation. The engine features optimized eco mode that delivers excellent performance to help reduce owning and operating costs.

Filtration System

The engine features an improved filtration system to ensure reliability even with less-than-quality fuel. Service intervals have been extended and the number of filters reduced to maximize your profit potential.

Automatic Engine Speed Control

Automatic engine speed control is activated during no-load or light-load conditions to reduce engine speed – all to help minimize fuel consumption.

Low Sound and Vibration

The Cat C9 ACERT engine is built to run quietly with limited vibration, which contributes to improving your comfort.

Hydraulic System

Hydraulic system pressure from the two-pump system delivers terrific digging performance and productivity. The hydraulic system and component locations have been designed to provide a high level of system efficiency. The main pumps, control valves, and hydraulic tank are located close together to allow for shorter tubes and lines between components, reducing friction loss and pressure drops.

Pilot System

An independent pilot pump enables smooth, precise control for the front linkage, swing, and travel operations.

Hydraulic Cross-Sensing System

The hydraulic cross-sensing system utilizes each of two hydraulic pumps to 100 percent of engine power under all operating conditions. This improves productivity with faster implement speeds and quicker, stronger pivot turns.

Boom and Stick Regeneration Circuit

Boom and stick regeneration circuits save energy during boom-down and stick-in operation to increase efficiency and reduce cycle times and pressure loss for higher productivity, lower operating costs, and increased fuel efficiency.

Hydraulic Cylinder Snubbers

Snubbers are located at the rod end of the boom cylinders and both ends of the stick cylinders to cushion shocks while reducing sound levels and extending component life.

Hydraulic Activation Control Lever

With the hydraulic activation lever in the neutral position, all front linkage, swing, and travel functions are isolated.

Main Frame

The rugged main frame is built to perform in the toughest applications. The X-shaped, box-section carbody provides excellent resistance to torsional bending, and press-formed, robot-welded track roller frames provide exceptional strength and durability.

Rollers and Idlers

Sealed and lubricated track rollers, carrier rollers, and idlers provide excellent service life to keep your machine in the field and working longer.

Undercarriage

Durable Cat undercarriage absorbs stress and provides excellent stability. The 336D2 GC comes standard with grease lubricated tracks. The track links are assembled and sealed with grease to decrease internal bushing wear, reduce travel noise and extend service life lowering operating costs.

Standard Undercarriage

An optimized standard undercarriage makes an ideal choice for life cycle value customers working across a wide range of applications.

Counterweight

A 5.2 mt (5.7 t) weight works well in applications that require heavy lifting. It's bolted directly to the main frame for extra rigidity.

Optimized Reach Front Linkage

The optimized reach (R) front linkage is built to work in a variety of applications. The 6.5 m (21'4") optimized reach boom is made of high-tensile-strength steel using a large box-section design with interior baffle plates and an additional bottom guard for long life and durability. The optimized R6.5 m (21'4") boom and R2.8 m (9'2") stick are extremely durable and meet all of your application needs.

Ground-Level Service

The design and layout of the 336D2 GC was made with the service technician in mind. Most service locations are easily accessible at ground level to allow service and maintenance to get completed quickly and efficiently.

Air Filter Compartment

The air filter features a double-element construction for superior cleaning efficiency. When the air filter plugs, a warning is displayed on the cab monitor. Maintenance-free batteries are standard along with a battery disconnect switch.

Greasing Points

A concentrated remote greasing block on the boom allows greasing of hard-to-reach locations on the boom and stick.

Fan Guard

The engine radiator fan is enclosed by a steel guard that provides maximum protection when carrying out routine service and maintenance.

Anti-Skid Plating

Anti-skid plating covers the entire upper structure and storage box to prevent slipping during maintenance. Safety is further enhanced with the addition of countersunk bolts to reduce trip hazards.

Diagnostics and Monitoring
