Milton CAT D8T - Manual (Page 15)

Serviceability. Minimizes maintenance
and repair downtime. New sight gauges,
filter locations, improved access to oil
and coolant sampling ports, and an
engine compartment mounted work
lamp, make daily and periodic service
faster and easier. Equipped with a dozer
and ripper, there are only 18 lube points.
Engine Oil Filter. Engine oil filter is
located on the engine for easy servicing
access and minimal downtime.
Save further time with the optional
quick oil change attachments.
Water Separator and Fuel Filter.
Easily located just inside the engine
access panel, the water separator
functions as the primary fuel filter,
just ahead of the secondary fuel filter.
Quick Disconnect Fittings. Allow for fast
diagnosis of the power train, hydraulics
and attachment oil systems.
S•O•S SM Analysis. Scheduled Oil
Sampling made easier through live
sampling ports for the engine oil,
hydraulics and coolant.
Caterpillar Product Link PL300 (optional).
This option allows the customer or
dealer to obtain machine diagnostics
and location information from their
offices. Product Link PL300 provides
updates on service meter hours, machine
condition and machine location, as well
as integrated mapping/route planning.
Built-in flexibility allows for future
technology development.
Machine Selection. Make detailed
comparisons of the machines you are
considering before you buy. How long
do components last? What is the cost
of preventive maintenance? What is the
true cost of lost production? Your Cat
Dealer can give you answers to these
very important questions.
Purchase. Consider the financing options
available, as well as day-to-day operating
costs. This is also the time to look at
dealer services that can be included in
the cost of the machine to yield lower
equipment owning and operating costs
over the long run.
Product Support. Plan for effective
maintenance before buying equipment.
Choose from your dealer’s wide range
of maintenance services at the time you
purchase your machine. Programs such
as Custom Track Service (CTS),
S•O•S analysis, Technical Analysis
and guaranteed maintenance contracts
give peak life and performance to
your machine.
Parts Program. You will find nearly
all parts at your dealer parts counter.
Cat Dealers use a worldwide computer
network to find in-stock parts to minimize
machine downtime.
Ask about your Cat Dealer’s exchange
program for major components. This can
shorten repair time and lower costs.
Remanufactured Components.
Genuine Cat Remanufactured parts
save you money. You receive the same
warranty and reliability as new products
at cost savings of 40 to 70 percent.
Components available for the drive
train, engine, and hydraulics.
