BENEFITS

PROVEN RELIABILITY

    Cat C13B engine delivers proven reliability across a variety of platforms.     Terrain-based throttle control smooths throttle input over rough terrain to improve ride quality.     Enhanced reliability through commonality and design simplicity with long life to overhaul.     Minimized impact of emissions systems allows excellent response and ample power.     Hydraulic retarder improves response and increases retarding power for controlled descent of grades.

LONG TERM VALUE AND DURABILITY

    All structures and components are proven through extensive testing and customer experience.     Advanced suspension allows greater speed over rough terrain, while softening impact loads.     Front suspension oscillates ±6 degrees for a smooth ride.     Frames are designed to handle torque loads, decrease hitch area stress, and optimize suspension geometry.     Frames are robot-welded for maximum durability.     Directional shift protection protects the powertrain when quickly moving from reverse to forward or forward to reverse.     Designed dump body provides reinforced top edge on side rail.

ACHIEVE GREATER PRODUCTIVITY

    Advanced Automatic Traction Control (AATC) decreases wheel slippage, delivering maximum traction and increased productivity.  Fully automatic with no operator action.     Automatic Retarder Control (ARC) manages the retarder without any operator interaction. Fully automatic 100% of the time.     Combined hoist/transmission lever, exclusive to Caterpillar, places multiple controls on transmission lever, incorporates park brake, and reduces operator interaction by as much as 50%.     Machine wake up initiates machine systems when truck is de-isolated or cab door is opened.     Low profile exhaust stack reduces overall height and eliminates the need for removal to transport.

POWERFUL EFFICIENCY

    Economy mode reduces fuel use without affecting productivity and can be engaged with a single button.     This machine design improves fuel economy with minimized maintenance costs and the same great power and response.     Innovative air-management systems optimize airflow and enhance power and fuel efficiency.     Fully automatic retarder control helps prevent engine overspeed, protects powertrain components without any operator intervention.

WORK IN COMFORT

    Simple, intuitive control and display layouts allow operator to focus on safe machine operation, while maintaining productivity.     An optional system uses four discrete cameras to enhance operator visibility around the machine, while an integrated detection system provides both visual and audible alerts to indicate the presence of nearby objects.     The HVAC system is now managed through the primary display with controls accessible via the jog dial or touchscreen for enhanced operator convenience.     Cab-mounted mirrors for excellent visibility, reduced vibration, and easy folding.     Front visibility mirror gives an improved view immediately in front of the machine.     Touchscreen allows easy monitoring and adjustment of systems.     Sliding windows improve ventilation and communication.     The cab features dedicated storage solutions for everyday items, ensuring convenience and organization for the operator, granting comfort and room for movements.

TECHNOLOGY THAT GETS WORK DONE

    Integrated systems give you the ability to make timely, fact-based decisions to maximize efficiency, improve productivity, and lower costs.     Product Link™ system connects to each machine wirelessly, allowing you to monitor location, hours, fuel use, productivity, idle time, and diagnostic codes.     External payload indicator lights alert the loader when to stop, reducing the risk of machine overloading.     Stability assist software reports information via online VisionLink®, increasing awareness of machine history if a rollover has occurred.     Improved payload technology allows operators to view real-time load weights on the integrated display.  Updated software and sensors provide accurate data.

BUILT-IN SAFETY FEATURES

    Unique safety feature Dynamic Roll Protection supports rollover prevention and works in parallel with the already successful Cat Detect with Stability Assist, reducing downtime and safety repairs from machine rollover events.     Seat belt indicator provides audible and visible alert if seatbelt is not latched while the machine is on.     Operator-presence detection system applies parking brake if gear is engaged and operator is not seated.     In-cab tertiary brake switch allows operator to bring the machine to a safe stop in the unlikely event of both main and secondary brake circuits failing.     Integrated payload lights (when Cat Payload Monitoring (CPM) option is fitted) with wide angle beam lights on all cab roof corners provide clear visibility to loading tool operator and site controllers.     Secondary steering activates automatically if low pressure is sensed in primary system.     Ground-level fuel fill and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) fill tanks.     Hill Assist reduces potential rollback on grades.     Auto Wait Brake applies the service brakes when neutral is selected and button is pressed, allowing quick and easy control of the machine while dumping and loading.

LOWER MAINTENANCE COSTS

    Durable flexi fender reduces the risk of permanent damages and reduces repair costs.     Durable design and easier servicing mean maximized uptime and reduced service costs.     Universal joints are lubricated for life, eliminating any maintenance.     Coolant formula improves component life by reducing corrosion.     Entire machine is designed for greater ease of maintenance with side-tilting cab, electrically raised hood, access panels, and Cat Data Link connector.     Extended service intervals for the engine and transmission: 1,000 and 2,000 hours, respectively. Doubled from previous models, resulting in lower total cost of ownership.

SUSTAINABILITY

    The Cat® C13B engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Korea Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards.     Cat diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) * or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.     Extended maintenance intervals not only reduce downtime but decrease the amount of fluid and filters that are replaced over the life of the machine.     VisionLink® displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.     Don't waste fuel idling. Cat VisionLink® online fleet monitoring helps you manage idle time and reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.     Cat® Stability Assist for Articulated Trucks helps improve machine safety and uptime by increasing awareness of machine stability during operation.     Cat® Production Measurement provides real-time payload weighing which help you maximize productivity, reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions, all while improving job site efficiency and lowering costs.     *Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to 100% biodiesel (for use of blends higher than 20% biodiesel, consult your Cat dealer).
