User manual CATERPILLAR MD1002 P BROCHURE

[. . . ] The exclusive walking-beam axle provides a smoother ride for the operator and a variable cutting edge angle for unmatch productivity. Designed to be pulled by Caterpillar® Track-Type Tractors or Challenger® Tractors, the Cat MD1002 P Towed Scraper raises the standard. Scraper Bowl Unmatched Durability. High-Strength Bowl Design The scraper bowl is constructed using L-shaped box sections of high strength steel for superior strength and dent resistance. The floor is a box-section structure made from high-strength, abrasion-resistant steel for maximum strength during top loading and rigidity during intermittent push loading. [. . . ] This eliminates the need for draft arms, reducing weight and complexity. Cutting Edges Common Cat Wheel Tractor-Scraper cutting edges and router bits are used to ensure exceptional performance and great availability. The center cutting edge is in the stinger (drop down) position for good penetration and efficient material flow into the bowl. When worn, the cutting edges can be rotated by 180 degrees, doubling the life. Ejector The ejector is constructed from a single plate of high-strength, abrasion-resistant steel. The ejector extends beyond the front edge of the scraper floor to minimize carryback. To minimize wear, the ejector weight is carried on steel rollers supported by a wear strip welded to the bowl floor. At the sides, alignment is maintained by Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) plastic guides. Depth Indicator A depth indicator is mounted on trailing scrapers to provide the operator a visual reference to scraper cut depth. 3 Tongue and Hitch Built rugged for extreme durability. Hitches for Cat® Tractors Robust hitches are available for Cat® Track-Type Tractors and Challenger® MTS800/MTS900 Series Tractors. See your Caterpillar dealer for hitches for other pulling machines. Rugged Hitch To prevent pin wear, the hitch uses a massive 89 mm (3. 5 in) pin securely held in place with eight bolts. The hitch platform, positioned between the pulling machine and the tongue, contains two pins that allow ± 45 degrees of side to side oscillation (or roll), ± 90 degree turns (yaw), and ± 27 degrees of uphill/downhill movement (pitch). Steepen the cutting angle while drop cutting or during push loading. Use a shallower cut when loading lighter materials such as sand or dry topsoil. Wheels, Brakes Raising the Standards. Standard Brakes ­ Construction-Grade Standard heavy-duty brakes bring a new level of safety to the job site. Each machine is equipped with four calipers. The hydraulically-actuated, dry-disc brakes are identical to the brakes used on Cat D400E Articulated Trucks. Standard Radial Tires Standard radial tires reduce rolling resistance and provide excellent flotation and durability. Heavy-duty, five-piece rims ensure a long service life. Wheel hubs are oil-filled and sealed with Cat Duo-ConeTM seals. 7 Customer Support · · · · · Unmatched support makes the difference.
