[. . . ] M318D Wheel Excavator Engine Engine Model Net power (ISO 9249) at 1, 800 rpm Weights Operating Weight Cat® C6. 6 with ACERTTM Technology 124 kW 166 hp 18 200 to 20 100 kg 40, 124 to 44, 313 lb Bucket Specifications Bucket Capacities Working Ranges Maximum Reach at Ground Level Maximum Digging Depth Drive Maximum Travel Speed 0. 38 to 1. 26 m3 9600 mm 6360 mm 37 km/h 0. 5 to 1. 65 yd3 31'6" 20'11" 23 mph Features Engine The EPA Tier 3 compliant C6. 6 offers increased performance and reliability while reducing fuel consumption and sound levels. Environmentally Responsible Design Helping to protect our environment, the engine has low operator and spectator sound levels, longer filter change intervals and is more fuel-efficient. Hydraulics The state of the art load-sensing hydraulic system combined with a separate dedicated swing pump provides fast cycle times, increased lift capacity and high bucket and stick forces. This combination maximizes your productivity in any job. [. . . ] There are several choices of tine and shell versions. Multi-Processors Thanks to its single basic housing design, the Multi- Processor series of hydraulic demolition equipment makes it possible to use a range of jaw sets that can handle any demolition job. The Multi-Processor is the most versatile demolition tool on the market. Vibratory Plate Compactors Cat compactors are performance-matched to Cat machines, and integrate perfectly with the Cat hammer line ­ brackets and hydraulic kits are fully interchangeable between hammers and compactors. Shears Cat shears provide superior and effective scrap processing, and are highly productive in demolition environments. Shears are compatible with a matching Cat excavator, and bolt-on brackets are available for either stick or boommounted options. 11 Serviceability and Complete Customer Support Ground Level Maintenance Caterpillar designed its D Series Wheel Excavators with the operator and service technician in mind. Gull-wing doors, with pneumatically-assisted lift cylinders, effortlessly lift up to allow critical maintenance to be performed quickly and efficiently while maintaining operator safety. Extended Service Intervals The D Series Wheel Excavator service and maintenance intervals have been extended to reduce machine service time, increase machine availability and reduce operating costs. Using S·O·SSM Scheduled Oil Sampling analysis, hydraulic oil change intervals can be extended up to 6, 000 hours. Engine Oil Cat engine oil is formulated to optimize engine life and performance. The specially formulated oil is more cost effective and increases engine oil change interval to 500 hours, providing industry leading performance and savings. Air Filters Cat air filters eliminate the use of service tools, reducing maintenance time. The air filter features a double-element construction with wall flow filtration in the main element and built-in mini-cyclone precleaners for superior cleaning efficiency. The air filters are constantly monitored for optimum performance. If airflow becomes restricted, a warning is displayed by the way of the in-cab monitor. Capsule Filter The hydraulic return filter, a capsule filter, prevents contaminants from entering the system when the hydraulic oil is changed. Fuel Filters Cat high efficiency fuel filters with a Stay-Clean ValveTM features a special media that removes more than 98% of particles, increasing fuel injector life. Both the primary and secondary fuel filters are located in the engine compartment and can be easily changed from ground level. Water Separator The D Series is equipped with a primary fuel filter with water separator located in the engine compartment. For ease of service, the water separator can be easily accessed from ground level. Fuel Tank Drain The durable, corrosion-free tank has a remote drain located at the bottom of the upper frame to remove water and sediment. The tank drain with hose connection allows simple, spill-free fluid draining. 12 Simplified and easy maintenance save you time and money. Cat® dealer services help you operate longer with lower costs. Front Compartment The front compartment hood can be opened vertically, providing outstanding ground level access to the batteries, air-to-air aftercooler, air conditioner condenser and the engine air filter. Swing-out Air Conditioner Condenser The air conditioning condenser swings out horizontally to allow complete cleaning on both sides as well as excellent access to the air-to-air aftercooler. Scheduled Oil Sampling Caterpillar has specially developed S·O·SSM Oil Sampling Analysis to help ensure better performance, longer life and increased customer satisfaction. This thorough and reliable early warning system detects traces of metals, dirt and other contaminants in your engine, axle and hydraulic oil. It can predict potential trouble avoiding costly failures. Your Cat dealer can give you results and specific recommendations shortly after receiving your sample. Engine Inspection The engine can be accessed from both ground level and the upper structure. The longitudinal layout ensures that all daily inspection items can be accessed from ground level. Anti-Skid Plates They cover the top of the steps and upper structure to help prevent slipping during maintenance. The Anti-Skid plates reduce the accumulation of mud on the upper structure, improving the cleanliness and safety. Easy to Clean Coolers Flat fins on all coolers reduce clogging, making it easier to remove debris. The main cooling fan and air conditioner condenser are both hinged for easier cleaning. Remote Greasing Blocks For those hard to reach locations, greasing blocks have been provided to reduce maintenance time. Handrails and Steps Large handrails and steps assist the operator in climbing on and off the machine. LED Rear Lights Standard Light Emitting Diode (LED) rear lights provide increased visibility on the job site, higher durability and longer life. 13 Versatility A wide variety of optional factory-installed attachments are available to enhance performance and improve job site management. Tool Control The integrated Tool Control system allows the operator to select up to 10 preset combinations. This eliminates the need to reset the hydraulic parameters each time a tool is changed. Individual flow and pressure can be programmed easily as well as one-way/two-way hydraulic functions. Each of the tenprogrammed tools can even be given a specific name. [. . . ] Lift capacity ratings are based on ISO 10567:2007, they do not exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity or 75% of tipping load. The load point is the center line of the bucket pivot mounting pin on the stick. Lifting capacities are based on the machine standing on a firm uniform supporting surface. For lifting capacity including bucket and/or quick coupler, the respective weight has to be subtracted from above values. [. . . ]
