Overview
MOBILE. AGILE. VERSATILE.
Cat® wheel dozers combine the power of a track dozer with the mobility of a wheeled machine to help deliver high production at low operating costs in a variety of applications — from surface mining cleanup to coal stock piling, road maintenance to reclamation.
Benefits
IMPROVED MAINTENANCE
Make regular maintenance more convenient with accessible controls located inside the cab.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY
Grouped ground level engine and machine controls allow for safe and easy daily maintenance.
ENHANCED OPERATOR COMFORT
Comfortable cab and low effort controls with reduced vibration levels help operators work more productively throughout the day.
Features at a Glance
