Technology that gets work done

• Stable Blade improves grading precision by decreasing engine speed at 15 percent intervals when machine bounce is detected then increases engine rpm systematically when grader stabilizes.
• Cat GRADE with Cross Slope helps maintain desired cross slope by automatically controlling one side of the blade.
• Optional Cat AccuGrade™ uses positioning and guidance technologies, machine sensors, and automatic blade control to help get to grade faster, easier, and more efficiently.
• Auto Articulation allows you to articulate automatically while steering in tight spaces or around curves, obstacles, and turnarounds.

Move More, Burn Less

• Cat C13 engine meets Tier 3/Stage IIIA equivalent.
• Standard Economy Mode can be turned on to limit maximum engine speed which helps reduce fuel consumption.
• Standard VHP Plus provides ideal amount of power in all gears.
• Standard Automatic Differential Lock unlocks differential during a turn and re-locks when straight for easier operation and improved power train protection.

More Control And Efficiency

• Load-sensing system and advanced electro hydraulics give operator superior implement control and hydraulic performance.
• Proportional Priority Pressure-Compensating valves have different flow rates for head and rod ends of cylinder, so machine responds consistently and predictably.
• Balanced hydraulic flow is proportioned to ensure all implements will operate simultaneously without slowing engine or speed of some implements.

Designed For Operators

• Simple, intuitive joystick controls replace levers, so hand and arm movements are reduced by 78%, helping reduce operator fatigue.
• Advanced Control Joysticks allow operator to control automated grading solutions efficiently and safely without removing hands from the joysticks.
• Selectable blade lift modes – Fine, Normal, or Coarse – allow operator to match application requirements.
• Articulation Return-to-Center automatically returns machine to a straight frame position from any angle with the touch of a button.

Built-In Safety Features

• Factory fitted rear vision camera enhances sight to rear of machine.
• Electrical disconnect and engine shutoff switches are ground level.
• Operator Presence System keeps parking brake engaged and hydraulic implements disabled until operator is seated and machine is ready for operation.
• Hydraulic Lockout disables all implement functions while still providing machine steering control – especially useful while roading.
• Seat belt indicator promotes safe operating habits.

Save Maintenance Time

• Convenient access from the top of the circle to the patented top-adjust wear strips and inserts make them easy to add or replace.
• Shim less Moldboard Retention System uses vertical and horizontal adjusting screws to keep moldboard wear strips aligned for reduced blade chatter and precise blade control.
