Benefits & Features

Productivity

    • Added productivity and up to 10 percent fuel savings, delivering up to 18 percent better dozing efficiency.(1)
    • Move up to 13 percent more material per pass with the largest standard blade in the size class (10.3 m3).
    • Keep working, even in high temperatures, with increased cooling capability.(1) Push in second gear for more dozing productivity.
    • Save fuel with a hydraulic demand fan that reduces speed in cooler conditions. Optional reversing capability for high debris conditions.
