User manual CATERPILLAR 730 EJECTOR BROCHURE

[. . . ] When used together, the differentials provide 100 percent driveline locking. Inter-Axle Differential Lock Locks all three axles in unison and modifies torque distribution for excellent traction in poor underfoot conditions and on grades. It is operated by a switch located at the footrest. Cross-Axle Differential Locks Provides full driveline locking ­ all three axles and all six wheels ­ for maximum performance in the most adverse conditions. [. . . ] It also protects the truck from adverse road conditions by absorbing shock loads that would reach the frame. Articulating/Oscillating Hitch The articulating hitch provides the truck with steering articulation, and the oscillation ensures all-wheel ground contact in rough terrain. Hitch Construction Two-piece construction features a durable cast steel head bolted to a hard-wearing forged steel tube. Service Brakes Dual-circuit, all wheel braking system. Full power hydraulic system actuates self cleaning caliper disc brakes with independent front and rear circuits and accumulators. Parking Brake Located on the center axle in an elevated position out of the dirt and designed to deliver higher heat capacity and abuse resistance. 7 Ejector Body Disperse loads on-the-go for faster cycles and lower spreading costs. Ejector The ejector body offers clean load ejection and the capability to work in areas with restricted overhead clearance and soft underfoot conditions. Versatility The 730 Ejector shares the versatility of the Standard 730 Articulated Truck, operating in the same conditions, but offering unique capabilities that stretch the operation envelope. Spreading The truck can eject and spread the material while moving, reducing additional spreading and dozing equipment. "On-the-go" ejecting results in faster cycle times and reduced power train loads. Stability Ejecting the load without raising the body increases stability, allowing load dispersal on inclines, side slopes and in very soft underfoot conditions especially on landfill sites. Overhead Clearance The truck can eject in areas with reduced overhead clearance, such as around overhead lines or in tunneling and underground operations. Carry-Back The body design eliminates material sticking to the body, which increases productivity, improves fuel efficiency and lowers cost per ton. Body Reinforced body is made from thick high-yield, heat-treated Brinell hardened steel (Brinell 450 on the base and Brinell 400 on the sides) that provides exceptional durability. Ejector top rails are made from high-strength alloy steel. For optimum durability and wear life, the ejector body is designed to work in applications where the material consists of rocks smaller than 152 mm (6 in) in diameter. Blade The ejector blade is made from high-strength steel and uses technology similar to that proven in Cat wheel tractor-scrapers. Cylinder A three-stage, high-speed, double-acting cylinder is specifically designed for horizontal mounting and smooth load ejection. 8 Product Link Equipment Manager is a secure and user-friendly application. Equipment Manager ­ a better way to manage your fleet Equipment Manager allows transmitted data to be searched and sorted by alert level, group, equipment identification, make and model. Each new machine comes with Asset Watch. However, you can subscribe to a higher level of service for any machine, at any time, through your Cat dealer. Can be manually selected for machine recovery purposes External engine fuel cut off switch for easy access from outside of the machine External electrical system disconnect switch for easy access from outside of the machine Slip resistant surfaces ­ punched steel plate 75 mm (3 in) wide seat belts for operator/trainer and passenger Wide angled mirrors for excellent rear visibility Sweeping hood design for panoramic forward visibility Extensive hand rails Body raised alarm Heated mirrors (optional) Xenon flashing beacon (optional) · · · · · · · · · · 11 Serviceability More time on production. Long Service Intervals Long engine oil change and hydraulic oil change intervals lower maintenance costs and downtime. Wheel-bearing adjustment is completely eliminated. Lube Points Lube points are grouped at the rear of the front frame and the front of the rear frame. Universal joints are lubed for life, eliminating servicing. Autolube is optional. Service Points Engine and transmission dipstick and fill caps, air and fuel filters, and the fuel priming pump are all mounted on the left side of the engine under the electrically raised hood. Coolant level indicator and fill cap are outside the cab. Radiator The radiator package is located behind the cab, which provides protection from frontal impacts and offers easy access to the inlet and outlet sides of the radiator. Extended Life Coolant Extends the change interval and improves component life by reducing aluminum corrosion. Electrical Service Center Located inside the cab, this service center provides a power port, diagnostic connector and Cat Data Link connector. Cat Data Link Connector The Cat Data Link connector provides a plug-in using a laptop computer with Electronic Technician (ET) software. Service Access The cab tilts to the side to provide easy access underneath, which simplifies access of the transmission, drive shafts and hydraulic pumps. Machine electrical and hydraulic interfaces are located on the right side of the cab, behind a removable cab body panel for easy access. Truck Transport The suspension system eliminates the need to lower the suspension when transporting the truck, reducing maintenance and downtime. 12 730 Ejector Articulated Truck Specifications Engine Engine Model Gross Power ­ SAE J1995 Net Power ­ SAE J1349 Net Power ­ ISO 9249 Net Power ­ EEC 80/1269 Bore Stroke Displacement Cat® C11 ACERTTM 242 kW 325 hp 237 kW 239 kW 239 kW 130 mm 140 mm 11. 15 L 317 hp 321 hp 321 hp 5. 1 in 5. 5 in 680 in3 Sound Levels Interior Cab 76 dB(A) · The operator sound exposure Leq (equivalent sound pressure level) measured according to the work cycle procedures specified in ANSI/SAE J1166 OCT 98 is 76 dB(A), for the cab offered by Caterpillar, when properly installed and maintained and tested with the doors and windows closed. · Hearing protection may be needed when operating with an open operator station and cab (when not properly maintained or doors/windows open) for extended periods or in noisy environments.
