Product Safety. Caterpillar has been and
continues to be proactive in developing
mining machines that meet or exceed
safety standards. Safety is an integral
part of all machine and systems designs.

ASE and ISO Standards. The D11T/
CarryDozer is designed to many national
and international standards.

ROPS and FOPS. The external ROPS/
FOPS structure is designed to carry
loads directly into the tractor main
frame and protect the operator.

Access/Egress. Wide opening cab doors
provide both primary and secondary
access/egress from the cab. Primary and
secondary access are via the platform
outside the cab doors and the track,
using strategically placed grab irons
and steps. An attachment rear walkway
[with 1987 L (505 gal) fuel tank] is
available to provide a means of cleaning
the rear and side windows and provides
maintenance access to the rear lights.
An attachment, hydraulically actuated,
access ladder is available, separately,
for applications where wet or freezing
material would make access/egress
via the tracks more challenging.

Visibility. An attachment WAVS rear
vision camera is available to provide
additional visibility to the standard
mirrors.

Electrical System Lockout/Tagout.
A disconnect switch is available to
shut off all machine electrical power.
Another disconnect switch shuts off
power to the starter, while keeping
main power available for diagnostics
and troubleshooting.

Lighting. Standard HID lighting provides
superior illumination around the machine
for night operations. The 35 watt HID
lamps provide lighting equivalent to
4 Halogen lamps, without producing
significant glare. Multiple switches in the
cab allow segregation of specific lamps
in the event that the tractor is working
near other machines. Two under-hood
service lamps illuminate the engine
compartment for easy night service.
The fender light switch can be left in
the on position when the ignition key
is turned off. The fender lights will stay
on for a pre-timed period to allow the
operator to egress the machine at night.
The fender lights will automatically
turn off after 10 minutes.
