Oscillating track frames
absorb shock loads, for
lasting durability, better
gradeability, and more
comfort. Plus a smaller
diameter front idler
improves visibility.
One-piece totally welded
mainframe resists torsional
stress, absorbs shock loads,
and delivers maximum
strength. Allows simplifi ed
service access to major
components, too.
Final drives incorporate a
unique oil-fi lled double seal.
If oil escapes past the fi rst
seal, an indicator light in the
cab alerts the operator. It’s
an early warning that helps
avert major fi nal-drive failure
and expense.
These dozers were
designed with rippers in
mind. Rear attachment
mounting points are an
integral part of their main-
frames, not add-ons.
Separate engine and
transmission cooling sys-
tems employ hydraulic-
driven fans for superior
cooling effi ciency.
Coolers’ wide fi n spacing lets
trash pass to resist plugging.
Available reversing fan back-
blows cooler cores, further
reducing debris buildup.
Heavy-duty undercarriage
is sealed, lubricated, and
built to last. Its no-non-
sense oval-track design
has only one wear-caus-
ing forward-travel fl ex
point, for longer life.
Half-shell push-beam
bearings make cutting
and welding unnecessary,
so they’re less costly
and time-consuming to
replace.
Wet-sleeve diesels deliver
maximum power at low 1,600
rpm for outstanding reliability.
It’s surprisingly quiet and
exceptionally fuel effi cient, too.
Hydraulic-driven variable-
speed engine fan runs only
as needed, decreasing noise
and fuel consumption.
