User manual CATERPILLAR 308D CR BROCHURE

[. . . ] Other cab features include: · Air conditioning is standard. · 12V power receptacle for charging cell phones. · A reclining air suspension seat with adjustable armrests. [. . . ] · Load sensing hydraulics optimize the flow of oil for smooth powerful performance and increased fuel economy. · Automatic engine idle lowers engine revolutions when not in use to conserve fuel and lower environmental noise/emissions. 4 Work Tools Cat work tools are matched to meet your application needs. A wide range of tools have been developed and integrated into the machine design to maximize machine performance and deliver excellent value through high productivity and long life. · Heavy Duty Buckets · Heavy Duty Rock Buckets · Ditch Cleaning Buckets · Hydraulic Hammers · Augers · Shears · Compactors · Thumbs · Quick Couplers Couplers To maximize performance, Caterpillar Pin-Grabber Quick Couplers are compatible with all standard work tools, enabling the operator to simply release one work tool and pick up another, maximizing productivity. The couplers are available in hydraulic and manual versions. Auxiliary Hydraulics The combined function high-pressure auxiliary lines and quick connectors are fitted as standard. This auxiliary system includes a diverter valve which provides optimum performance when using a one-way flow (hammer) or two-way flow (auger and thumb) work tool. This feature allows the machine to adapt to a wide variety of applications without re-configuring the auxiliary lines. Versatility is further enhanced with optional hydraulic lines enabling the use of a hydraulic quick coupler. A secondary auxiliary supply circuit for work tools utilizing a rotating or other mediumpressure circuit is also available as an optional attachment. The auxiliary flow can be changed through the in-cab LCD monitor from 64 L/min (16. 9 gal/min) to 128 L/min (33. 8 gal/min). This allows the machine and work tool to provide optimum performance and better match the customer's application requirements. Thumbs Caterpillar offers three varieties of thumbs: Stiff Link, Hydraulic and Progressive Link. The stiff link thumb incorporates the use of a fixed link between the thumb and the stick, requiring bucket curl to secure the load. The hydraulic thumb replaces the stiff link with a cylinder that enables movement by both the thumb link and the bucket to grab an object. A progressive link thumb works much like a hydraulic thumb with more thumb rotation by incorporating an additional link. This additional rotation provides a better working range when securing material. The three varieties come with two lengths, one compatible with a pin-on bucket and one compatible with a pin-grabber coupler. 5 Undercarriage Excellent stability. The Cat 308D CR and 308D CR SB offer four different track options to choose from allowing the correct machine configuration to suit the job. Steel Track The standard track offering is a 450 mm (18 in) triple grouser track. Grease-lubricated track links, split master link and sealed track rollers reduce owning and operating costs. Steel tracks provide optimum stability when lifting over the side. This track is also offered in a 600 mm (24 in) width that provides additional stability and reduced ground pressure. Rubber Belt New to the D-Series is a 450 mm (18 in) width rubber belt. [. . . ] Consult your Caterpillar dealer for details.
