 - Operators experience less fatigue with throttle lock to maintain engine speed.
 
PRODUCTIVITY WITH TECHNOLOGY
- Compact technology combines advanced compaction measurement, in-cab guidance, and reporting capabilities to help you consistently meet compaction targets fast, uniformly, and in fewer passes – saving on fuel and the cost of unnecessary rework.
-Optional 3D mapping system available - Link technology (standard) provides access to machine location, hours, fuel consumption, idle time, events, and diagnostic codes through the online VisionLink® interface.
 
WHEEL TIPS BUILT TO PERFORM
- Designed specifically to complement Cat machines.
 - Improves machine performance through longer wear life and maintaining traction.
 - Three wheel and tip configurations are available to meet your
 - particular application:
1) Paddle Tip – High performance and less fuel burn with more traction and less weight.
2) Plus Tip – Traditional design for increased side slope stability.
3) Combination Tip – Both paddle and plus tips provide the best compromise of performance and fuel economy with side slope stability.
