- Powershift transmission and differential steering work in tandem with the Cat C9 engine to deliver outstanding power, productive performance and reliability.
- Dual hydraulic pump system provides dedicated hydraulic power to steering and implements for outstanding steering performance and response.
- Differential steering maintains full power to both tracks, providing best in class turning with a loaded blade or in soft ground conditions.
- A single-stage torque divider delivers more power to the ground.
- Durable, efficient cooling system uses aluminum bar plate construction for performance and durability.
- Elevated sprocket design isolates final drives, axles, and steering components from harsh impacts.
- Wide variety of undercarriage and track shoe choices to optimize performance and undercarriage life in your specific conditions.
- The foundation of every Cat dozer is a rugged frame built to absorb high impact shock loads and twisting forces.
- Pinned equalizer bar gives the roller frames the ability to oscillate up and down to better match ground contours maximizing traction and operator comfort.
- L-shaped push arms bring the blade closer to the machine for excellent maneuverability, balance and blade penetration.
- Load-sensing hydraulics are responsive, automatically and continually adjusting hydraulic power to maximize efficiency and blade response.
