Fuel Efficiency. The D-Series Wheel
Excavators are designed for outstanding
performance with high fuel efficiency.
This means more work done in a day,
less fuel consumed and minimal impact
on our environment.
Low Exhaust Emissions. The U.S. EPA
Tier 3 compliant Cat C4.4 offers
increased performance and reliability
while reducing fuel consumption and
sound levels.
Quiet Operation. Operator and spectator
noise levels are extremely low as a
result of the new variable speed fan
and remote cooling system.
Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil.
The optional biodegradable hydraulic
oil (HEES™) is formulated to provide
excellent high-pressure and high-
temperature characteristics, and is
fully compatible with all hydraulic
components. HEES is fully decomposed
by soil or water microorganisms,
providing a more environmentally-
sound alternative to mineral-based oils.
Fewer Leaks and Spills. Lubricant fillers
and drains are designed to minimize
spills. Cat O-Ring Face Seals, Cat XT™
Hose and hydraulic cylinders are all
designed to help prevent fluid leaks that
can reduce the machine performance
and cause harm to the environment.
Longer Service Intervals. Working
closely with your Caterpillar Dealer can
help extend service intervals for engine
oil, hydraulic oil, axle oil and coolant.
Meaning fewer required fluids and
fewer disposals, all adding up to lower
operating costs.
