Gradeability and Machine Control
The exclusive dual pump propel system provides superior performance, machine control
and excellent grade climbing capability.
Two propel pump system has dedicated
pumps to drive the heavy-duty, high-
torque rear wheel and drum motors
independently. Should the drum or
wheels begin to spin, there is always
hydraulic flow to the non-spinning
motor, allowing continuous tractive
effort. Especially useful in loose
underfoot conditions.
Controllability is another feature of
dual propel pumps. The operator is able
to stop, maintain machine position and
change directions while on a grade.
The CS-423E is designed to achieve high
productivity on level to mild grades.
The CS-433E and CP-433E provide high
productivity when working on more
demanding grades. These machines are
more effective in trench applications.
Sloped Hood Design
The sloped fiberglass hood design provides good service access and exceptional operator
visibility.
Visibility to the tire edges and rear of
machine is exceptional. The sloped
hood allows the operator to see
obstacles measuring 1 meter (3' 3")
high located 1 meter (3' 3") to the rear
of the machine. Excellent visibility
increases productivity when working
near obstructions or maneuvering
around the job site.
Lockable engine hood opens quickly
and easily with the use of gas struts to
provide good access to the engine,
cooling system and all service points.
Low sound levels for the operator and
the ground crew due to the engine hood
and cooling air flow through the rear
mounted radiator.
