Milton CAT 988H - Manual (Page 9)

5 Demand Fan. A speed controlled,
hydraulic fan provides maximum
cooling efficiency by directing the
appropriate amount of power through
the fan system based on the system’s
temperature.
Advanced Electronics. Play a major
role in the operation of the 988H.
Productivity improvements, enhanced
serviceability, increased operator
efficiency and lower costs are direct
benefits of the 988H advanced
electronics.
6 Caterpillar Monitoring System (EMS-III).
Continually monitors various machine
systems through three instrument clusters
and provides a three-level warning
system to alert the operator of immediate
or pending problems. It shares information
with the engine, hydraulic and transmission
controls that can be used during servicing
to simply service and troubleshooting.
The Caterpillar Monitoring System also
allows for new software to be uploaded
directly into the cab. Optional Payload Control System.
Tracks data regarding the load in the
bucket. It also features a numeric keypad
and easy to view display. An available
printer makes onboard ticket printing
possible.
Optional Ride Control. Provides a
boom suspension system by placing
two accumulators in the boom circuit,
reducing fore and aft pitch over rough
terrain. This results in a smoother,
more comfortable ride, allowing higher
load and carry speeds, increased load
retention and component life.
Loose Material Mode. Provides maximum
hydraulic speed and efficiency for loading
in easily penetrated loose material.
