#Caterpillar d2 dozer spcs series
While offering the same net power ratings as their previous series counterpart models, these new Next Gen dozers deliver up to 10 percent improved fuel economy. The dozers’ large, hinged door providing easy engine service access to all regular engine maintenance points has been moved to the right-hand side of the new machines.

The new D2 and D3 Next Gen small dozers are powered by the fuel-efficient Cat C3.6 diesel engine, which meets EU Stage V emission standards.

The choice between sealed and lubricated track (SALT) and Cat Abrasion™ undercarriage systems provides customers with the lowest operating cost solution for their specific applications. The LGP (762-mm) track will be offered for the D3 model to improve traction and flotation in exceedingly marginal underground conditions. The XL designation will no longer be used with the new series. Two undercarriage configurations – standard and LGP (low ground contact pressure) – will continue to be offered for the Next Gen small dozers. The dozers’ Power Pitch option enables the operator to control blade pitch (fore/aft) remotely from the operator’s compartment to optimize blade pitch for blade loading, optimizing machine productivity by up to 6 percent. Stable Blade complements operator blade control input, allowing the operator to finish grade easier, quicker and with less effort.Īvailable as part of the Cat attachment ready option (ARO) for easy scalability to GRADE with 3D control systems, Slope Assist saves time by helping the operator to more easily achieve the desired blade mainfall slope (fore/aft) and cross slope (left/right) by automatically maintaining the operator’s established blade grade angles. Slope Indicate improves operator confidence when working on slopes by providing slope of the chassis in the cross-slope direction without guessing. Reducing track slip when the machine encounters maximum load for greater productivity of each cycle, standard Automatic Traction Control no longer requires operator interaction as with previous models. A new lower sloping hood line improves visibility over the top of the hood to the peripheral view and blade’s cutting edge to increase finish grade efficiency.Ī larger 254-mm primary display with color touch screen provides easy access to many of the standard and optional advanced technology features. These Next Gen small dozers are designed to optimize speed, transportability, maneuverability, versatility and finish grade accuracy. The D2 and D3 Next Gen dozers replace the D4K2 and D5K2 models, respectively, and the new series offers the same specialty model options as in the past. Building on the same base machine platform as their successful predecessors, the new Cat ® D2 and D3 Next Generation small dozers feature styling changes, technology enhancements and a new low-emission fuel-efficient engine that provides significant value for the customer.
