User manual CATERPILLAR CS44 BROCHURE

[. . . ] 4 engine with ACERT Technology provides steady, reliable, clean-burning power that meets European Stage IIIA emissions standards. New hydraulic test port block makes oil sampling easy. Scheduled oil sampling on vibratory system is no longer required . Excellent Gradeability and Machine Control The exclusive Cat dual-pump propel system provides unmatched machine control with minimum drum and wheel slippage in low traction conditions. [. . . ] The operator's platform is isolated from the frame with heavy duty isolation mounts, which reduce vibration to the operator. Optional ROPS/FOPS Cab The ROPS/FOPS Cab is spacious and comfortable, with large windows and exceptional visibility. Excellent ergonomics and low sound levels keep the operator alert and in control. standard cab features include: · A comfortable, adjustable cloth seat · Internal rear view mirror and two exterior rear view mirrors · Two front-facing and two rear-facing working lights · A cab lift cylinder for greater access to the hydraulic pump package · Pre-wired for the addition of a radio set (radio not included) · All controls, levers, switches and gauges are positioned for easy use. The comfortable and durable seat provides adjustment for forward and backward positioning, seat height and suspension stiffness. The seat has flip-up arm rests and a 76 mm wide retractable seat belt. An adjustable wrist rest mounted near the propel lever reduces operator fatigue from extended operation. 7 Industry Leading Serviceability Cat machines are designed to keep owning and operating costs low. Cat customers know that much of the value of a Cat machine is realized away from the job site. Cat machines are designed for easy maintenance and long service intervals, maximizing uptime and minimizing costs. Visual Indicators Allow easy and fast check of engine coolant, hydraulic oil tank level, and air filter restriction. operator's Station Tilts Forward Rear Mounted Cooling System Allows convenient access to hydraulic pumps. Hydraulic oil cooler tilts rearward for additional access to radiator. Scheduled oil sampling of vibratory system no longer required. 3 Year/3, 000 Hour Hydraulic Oil Service Interval The CS/CP44 comes with a standard factory fill of Cat HYDOTM Advanced 10 hydraulic oil, which extends service intervals, reduces maintenance costs and maximizes uptime. With standard oils, the service interval is 2 years/2, 000 hours. Cat HYDO Advanced 10 extends the interval to 3 years/3, 000 hours. SSM Ports Allow for simple fluid collection of engine oil, engine coolant and hydraulic oil. quick Connect Hydraulic Test Ports Simplify system diagnostics. Parts Commonality The CS44 and CP44 share common parts with other Cat soil compactors and machines, minimizing the number of wear and service parts owners will need on hand. 8 Ground level access, right-side-of-machine service, and visual indicators are just a few of the features that make Cat machines easier and less expensive to service than the competition. The CS44 and CP44 also feature a maintenance-free articulation hitch and a tilting oil cooler for greater service access. [. . . ] ⷠMake comparisons of machines with estimates of component life, preventative maintenance and cost of production. A rocker switch at the operator's console triggers an electric over hydraulic control to change speed ranges. Double-acting cylinders powered by a gear pump Final Drives and Axle Final drive is hydrostatic with planetary gear reducer to the drum and hydrostatic with differential and planetary gear reduction to each whee. brakes Service Brake Feature Closed-loop hydrostatic drive system provides dynamic braking during operation.
