Structure
Engineered for maximum production and service life.
Mainframe Strength
The D10T mainframe is built to absorb high impact shock
loads and twisting forces.
Frame Rails
Full box section, designed to keep components rigidly aligned.
Heavy Steel Castings
Add strength to the main case, equalizer bar saddle, front
cross member and tag-link trunnion.
Top and Bottom Rails
Continuous rolled sections, with no machining or welding,
to provide superior mainframe durability.
Main Case
Elevates the final drives well above the ground level
work area to protect them from impact loads, abrasion
and contaminants.
Pivot Shaft
The D10T pivot shaft runs through the mainframe
and connects to the roller frames, allowing independent
oscillation. The full-length pivot shaft distributes impact
loads throughout the case, reducing the bending stress
on the case.
Equalizer Bar
The equalizer bar features limited slip seals and an oil-
lubricated joint for better oil flow. Remote lube passages
simplify maintenance. Large forged pads reduce wear
on the mainframe and extend sealed joint life.
Engine and Radiator Guard Mount
The new fabricated common front engine and rear radiator
mount feature heavy castings.
Tag-Link
The Tag-Link brings the blade closer to the machine
for more precise dozing and load control.
The Tag-Link design provides solid lateral stability
and better cylinder positions for constant break out force,
independent of blade height.
