Power Train The Cat ® C9 engine with ACERTTM Technology delivers maximum power and combines with Electronic Clutch Pressure Control and planetary powershift transmission to offer superior performance and reliability in heavyduty compaction applications. 4 Structures Tamping Wheels and Tips Advanced design, materials and robotic Tamping wheels, with a modified welding contribute to increased durability chevron pattern for the tips, offer and overall machine strength. 6 greater traction, penetration and compaction for high production. The new cast bases make cleaning the wheels easier when moving the 815F Series 2 to a new work site. [. . . ] Is achieved from the bottom of the lift to the top. The tapered pads walk out of the lift without "fluffing" the soil. The top of the lift is compacted and the surface is relatively smooth and sealed so hauling units are able to maintain a high speed when traveling over the fill. 815F Series 2 travel speed allows for four forces of compaction: pressure, manipulation, impact and vibration. Since it can also spread fill, the number of spreader tractors may be able to be reduced. 7 Operator Station and Controls Comfort and control. . . with a top quality operator's station productivity is maximized. 1 14 1 1 2 10 10 3 7 11 12 9 13 8 4 5 6 9 8 1 Exceptional All-Around Viewing Area. Reduces strain and fatigue, making operators more productive. With electronic analog gauges is a highly effective and reliable warning and diagnostic system. As a warning system, it constantly checks machine functions and tells the operator when there is a problem. Easy-to-read gauges display fuel level, temperatures for engine coolant, transmission and hydraulic oil, engine rpm and gear range. Hour meter, odometer and analog tachometer readings are also displayed. As a diagnostic system, it identifies conditions, shows current readings and plays back maximum or highest readings registered during recent operations. The right side panel contains a three level warning system, providing full-time monitoring of key functions. The system alerts the operator of immediate or impending problems with air inlet temperature, brake oil pressure, electrical system, low voltage, engine oil pressure, engine over-speed, fuel filter status, parking brake status, steering oil pressure and transmission filter status. 3 Quick Gear Kick Up/Down Button. Allows the operator easily downshift or upshift to a different gear. It is a convenient way to shift that saves time and effort. Is positioned for easy machine starting and stopping. 5 12-Volt Power Supply and Electronic Technician (Cat ET) Diagnostics. Is provided inside the cab for powering radios, telephones or a laptop computer. This is particularly useful for powering a laptop running Cat ET to access the enhanced engine and transmission control system diagnostics. The leather-like steering wheel and transmission control provide a sure grip and comfortable feel. The horn is conveniently located in the center of the steering wheel. Are conveniently located and allow for precise blade movement. [. . . ] Cat dealers use a worldwide computer network to find in-stock parts to minimize downtime. You can save money with genuine Cat Reman parts and receive the same warranty and reliability as new products at cost savings of 40 to 70 percent. Improving operating techniques can boost your profits. Your Cat dealer has training video tapes, literature, application and equipment training courses, along with many other ideas to help you increase productivity. Maintenance Services. [. . . ]
