Work Tools
Equipped
for
the
job
Load Sensing Hydraulics
Field-proven,
load-sensing
hydraulics
respond
to
operating
requirements
by
automatically
and
continually
adjusting
hydraulic
power
to
maximize
work
tool
effi
ciency.
Bulldozer and Blade Design
The
D6N
features
a
new
large
spherical
linkage
bearing
for
an easier
blade
removal.
Linkage
bearings
are
designed
for
the
life
of
the
machine.
VPAT
blades
now
come
AccuGrade
Ready
from
factory
with
mounted
brackets
for
AccuGrade
receivers.
AccuGrade
angle
sensor
are
better
protected
in
the
new
centered
position.
Strong
design
allows
Cat
blades
to
stand
up
to
the
most
severe applications.
Variable Pitch Angle Tilt (VPAT) Blade
This
blade
allows
the
operator
to
adjust
the
blade
lift,
angle
and
tilt
simultaneously,
using
the
same
control.
The
blade
pitch
can
also
be
adjusted,
which
can
help
increase
productivity.
Changing
the
blade
pitch
angle
is
now
easier
with
the
new
pitch
system.
The
versatility
of
the
VPAT
blade
gives
the
D6N
the
ability
to take
on
a
variety
of
applications
and
material
conditions,
such
as
finish
grading,
spreading
material
or
backfi
lling.
Full track
coverage
can
be
achieved
in
one
pass.
VPAT Foldable Blade
Designed
to
facilitate
transportation
without
blade
removal,
foldable
blades
reduce
the
overall
shipping
width.
The
blade
can
be
easily
folded
without
the
need
for
tools,
and
its
design
has
been
improved
to
make
the
folding
process
easier
and
quicker,
with
only
one
pin
left
to
remove.
Semi-Universal (SU) Blades (for
XL
versions
only)
This
blade
is
built
for
tough
applications
where
penetration
and
capacity
are
important.
L-shaped
push
arms
bring
the
blade
closer
to
the
machine,
providing
excellent
maneuverability,
balance
and
stability.
When
end
bits
are
removed,
the
blade
width
reduces
to
3
m
(9.8
ft)
to
allow
easier
transportation.
