Designed for ease of use - allows the operator to focus on production.
BENEFITS & FEATURES
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.
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 allow the operator to concentrate on production.
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 is 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 Ejector Levers
Finger tip controls allow easy operation and low effort. The ejector and transmission levers are positioned for easy, comfortable operation, along with the control for top gear limit, transmission hold and neutral lock.
Blade Retraction Sequence
The ejector blade returns to the loading position as soon as the blade retract sequence is initiated. The transmission is held in the gear selected for the ejecting cycle until this sequence is completed and the ejector control lever is returned to the float position.
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.
