BUILT TO PERFORM

BUILT TO PERFORM

  • Prefer a motor grader with steering wheel and levers? The 140 uses Caterpillar’s 45 years of lever and steering wheel controls design experience to provide you with the control option you prefer.
  • Save up to 40 percent in material with the Cat Grade with Cross Slope feature. Monitor Cross Slope information from the machine display.
  • Optimized machine balance ensures maximum drawbar power to the ground.
  • Don’t let the snow stop you from working. The all-wheel drive (AWD) option assists with traction and maneuvering the machine.
  • Each machine is equipped with the Cat C9.3 engine for power and reliability.
  • Save up to 10 percent on fuel consumption with ECO Mode.
  • For your fine grade applications, the hydraulic system provides multifunction capability of up to seven simultaneous functions for superior performance.
  • Reduce risk of impact damage with the standard circle drive slip clutch. It protects your circle drive and teeth.

INTEGRATED CAT TECHNOLOGY

INTEGRATED CAT TECHNOLOGY

  • Reduce your dependence on manual grade checking by using the Digital Blade Slope Meter.
  • Cat Grade with Cross Slope Indicate option provides a real time readout of cross slope and can be scaled to Cat Grade with Cross Slope for automatic blade movement.
  • Cat Grade with Cross Slope is an integrated system that enables operators to achieve grade faster and more accurately by automating the cross slope of the blade, allowing the operator to do more in the same amount of time. Other cost-saving benefits of the system include lower fuel consumption and up to 40% less material usage.
  • Cat Grade Attachment Ready Option (ARO) ensures machine readiness for additional 2D/3D grade control technologies.
  • Stable Blade senses blade bounce before the operator to reduce manual throttle use and site rework.
  • VisionLink® provides actionable data insights for all assets - regardless of fleet size or equipment manufacturer.* Review equipment data from your desktop or mobile device to maximize uptime and optimize assets. Dashboards provide information such as hours, miles, location, idle time, and fuel utilization. Make informed decisions that lower costs, simplify maintenance, and improve safety and security on your jobsite.
  • Remote Troubleshoot is a mobile application that allows your Cat dealer to perform diagnostic testing on your connected machine remotely to help ensure that issues are resolved quickly and with less downtime.
  • Remote Flash is a mobile application that allows you to update onboard software without a technician being present, allowing you to initiate software updates when convenient, increasing your overall operating efficiency.
  • Cat® Inspect is a mobile application that allows you to easily perform digital preventative maintenance (PM) checks, inspections, and daily walkarounds. Inspections can easily be integrated with other Cat data systems like VisionLink® so you can keep a close eye on your fleet.

WORK IN COMFORT

WORK IN COMFORT

  • Adjust to your ideal comfort with the air suspension seat with multiple ergonomic adjustments.
  • The rear camera option enhances visibility along with a heated lens to prevent snow buildup.
  • The high capacity Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system dehumidifies and pressurizes the cab, circulates fresh air, seals out dust and keeps windows clear.
  • Add the communications radio mount to connect with your operators from the cab.

LOWER MAINTENANCE COSTS

LOWER MAINTENANCE COSTS

  • Filters, such as hydraulic oil, engine air, and DEF filters, are grouped together for easy access and preventative maintenance.
  • The next generation filters help to reduce your fluid and filter costs.
  • Spend less time cleaning the cooling system with the reversing fan option, which helps to keep costs down when cleaned once per week for more uptime.
  • Maintain roads with the standard drawbar circle moldboard with hardened circle teeth for increased durability.
  • For tight finish grading, consider the top adjust drawbar option for applications that require maximum accuracy, and offers up to 45 percent reduction in maintenance cost over the standard.
