Overview
High productivity / low cost solution
Caterpillar is excited to announce the 651 comeback into our Wheel Tractor-Scraper lineup in 2022. Delivering high levels of productivity, the 651 single engine earthmoving system is a wise choice on numerous large-scale projects by providing fast cycle times when working in lower grades and rolling resistance applications. First introduced into the Cat® Wheel Tractor-Scraper lineup in 1962, the 651 continues to uphold its legacy as one of our signaturemachines. Its single engine power gives the ability to work with a Cat D10 or D11 push dozer delivering ultra-fast load times and the ability to work in abrasive or rocky conditions. Improvements in productivity, combined with enhancements in operator comfort, and new safety features – Powered Access System and effective wet disc brakes – for a machine offering high returns on profit and time

Higher Productivity
Improvements in fuel efficiency, utilizing payload estimator, and the new transmission controls deliver increased productivity
Unparalleled Safety
Safety features help increase operator confidence by providing a safer environment for operations - effective wet disc brakes, WAVS camera, and powered access cab entry
Features at a Glance
- BE MORE PRODUCTIVE

BE MORE PRODUCTIVE
- The Advanced Productivity Electronic Control System (APECS) enables communication between the engine and transmission to optimize power and torque output effectively. This integration
results in enhanced efficiency with a net result of moving more
material. - Use Ground Speed Control to set the desired top speed, and the machine will find the gear that works best for the engine and the transmission, providing a lower fuel burn.
- The machine speed limit feature allows the machine to maintain a
set the top speed instead of relying on top gear selector. - Auto-Stall assists in quickly bringing the transmission to an
operating temperature at start-up when the machine is working in a cold climate region. - Cat Payload for scrapers is an earthmoving solution for optimal payload and jobsite efficiency. Cat Payload achieves on-the-go
weighing by using bowl lift cylinder pressure during the loaded haul segment. Cat Payload is optimized to be used with Sequence
Assist, which provides increased productivity with less operator
effort.

-
EASY TO OPERATE
- Cat Advanced Ride Management (ARM) seat suspension reduces end stroke movement of the load cylinder for a smoother ride.
- Engine overspeed protection will automatically engage with no operator input when the machine is in eighth gear. The machine will assist in slowing the machine speed by canceling the throttle command and engaging the engine compression brake.
- The spacious cab features easy, intuitive controls and excellent
visibility. The cab provides a comfortable working environment for
all-day operation.
