Milton CAT D11T CD - Manual (Page 13)

Bulldozers. All blades feature a strong
box-section design that resists twisting
and cracking. Blades are made of
Cat DH-2™ steel that has high tensile
strength and stands up to the most
severe applications. Heavy moldboard
construction and hardened bolt-on
cutting edges and end bits add strength
and durability.
• Semi-Universal Blade. Built for tough
applications where penetration is more
important than capacity. The “SU” blade
is more aggressive in penetrating and
loading material than the “U” blade.
The blade wings are designed for
superior load retention and penetration
in tightly packed materials and for
finishing applications. Can also be
configured with a push plate for
push loading scrapers.
• High-Capacity Universal Blade.
Offers maximum capacity and is perfect
for moving big loads over long distances.
The “U” blade has large blade wings and
is ideal for stockpile work, reclamation,
charging hoppers or trapping for loaders.
CarryDozer Blade. The CarryDozer
carries material inside the blade curvature,
rather than pushing it. This carried
material increases the effective weight of
the tractor, enabling larger loads in front
of the blade and enhancing operation on
steeper uphill slopes. These two effects
combine to maximize productivity.
• Abrasion Versions. The abrasion
versions of the “SU” blade and “U”
blade extend blade life in more severe
applications. Abrasion blades are
equipped with rock guards, wear plates
and extended wear life cutting edges
and end bits.
Dual Tilt. Improves load control and
allows the operator to optimize the
blade pitch angle for each portion
of the dozing cycle.
Single Lever. Controls all blade
movements, including the optional
dual tilt.
Cutting Edges and End Bits. Cutting edges
are made of DH-2 steel. End bits are made
of DH-3™ steel to provide maximum
service life in tough materials.
Rippers. Single and multi-shank rippers
are made to penetrate tough material
fast and rip thoroughly for use in a
variety of materials.
Single-Shank Ripper. Operator can
adjust the shank depth from the seat
using an optional single-shank pin puller.
Large upper frame view hole improves
ripper tip visibility. Heat treated spacer
bars in ripper carriage extend pocket life
and reduce shank notching. Large one-
piece shank is available in deep ripping
configuration.
Multi-Shank Ripper. Tailors the tractor
to the material by using one, two or
three shanks.
Hydraulic Pitch Adjustment Cylinders.
Hydraulic pitch adjustment cylinders
vary the shank angle to get the best
penetration so the material is lifted
and shattered.
Rear Counterweights. Provide proper
tractor balance to maximize dozing
production. Recommended if not
equipped with any other rear attachment.
