The Right Bucket for the Job Caterpillar offers a variety of buckets to meet your specific job requirements. Careful match of the bucket design and machine operating characteristics provide the best digging, loading and carrying performance. General Purpose Buckets Caterpillar® general purpose buckets, available in 1. 8 m3 (2. 4 yd3) and 2. 1 m3 (2. 7 yd3) capacities with bolt-on cutting edge, are suitable for most general applications. Features include: · Improved bucket design with longer floor and a larger radius for easier flow of material into the bucket. · Patented Two-Bolt Corner Guard Cutting Edge System for superior wear resistance, better stability and a simple bolt-on system. · Built-in, replaceable heel wear plates for extended bucket life. Ground Engaging Tools Ground engaging tools include hardened steel cutting edges, choice of short or long teeth and a variety of tooth adapters. These tools optimize performance, improve load retention and extend the useful life of Caterpillar buckets. Versatility For expanded machine versatility, factory installed quick couplers and other special purpose buckets are also available. Contact your Caterpillar dealer for details. 6 Serviceability Easy access and minimal maintenance requirements keep your machine on the job. Convenient service features make maintenance easy. All service points are accessible from ground level on the right side of the engine. Gull-wing doors with gas struts lift for exceptional access to filters and service points. Extended service intervals reduce service time and increase machine availability. · Sight gauges let you easily check radiator coolant, hydraulic oil and transmission oil levels as well as engine air filter restriction without opening the air cleaner. · Standard pressure taps allow quick diagnosis of the entire hydraulic system. · S·O·SSM ports make oil sampling quicker, cleaner and provide the best oil sample for analysis. · Spin-on filters for engine oil, transmission oil and hydraulic oil are vertically mounted for easier servicing. · 924Hz features a standard electronic fuel prime pump. · Sequentially placed radiator and oil coolers are easy to access. · Swing-out cooling fan allows quick and easy cleaning and servicing of the radiator. The fan is hydraulically driven and separate from the engine compartment for low noise operation. · Optional reversing fan cleans screens without interrupting machine operation. Customer Support Unmatched support makes the difference Your Cat dealer is ready to assist you with your purchase decision and everything after. · Make comparisons of machines, with estimates of component life, preventative maintenance and cost of production. · Financing packages are flexible to meet your needs. · Your Cat dealer can evaluate the cost to repair, rebuild and replace your machine, so you can make the right choice.
