TECHNOLOGY THAT GETS WORK DONE

        
  • Integrated systems give you the ability to make timely, fact-based decisions to maximize efficiency, improve productivity, and lower costs.
    •     
  • Product Link™ system connects to the machine wirelessly, allowing you to monitor location, hours, fuel use, productivity, idle time, and diagnostic codes.
    •     
  • Improved payload technology allows operators to view real-time load weights on the integrated display. Updated software and sensors provide accurate data.
    •     
  • External payload indicator lights alert the loader when to stop, reducing the risk of machine overloading.
    •     
  • Stability Assist software reports information via VisionLink™, increasing awareness of machine history if a rollover has occurred.

BUILT-IN SAFETY FEATURES

        
  • Unique safety feature Dynamic Roll Protection supports rollover prevention and works in parallel with the already successful Cat Detect with Stability Assist, reducing downtime and safety repairs from machine rollover events.
    •     
  • Enter the machine safely with machine wakeup and new stairway lighting.
    •     
  • Grab rail allows for easier and safer machine access.
    •     
  • Operator-presence detection system applies parking brake if gear is engaged and operator is not seated.
    •     
  • In-cab tertiary brake switch allows the operator to bring the machine to a safe stop in the unlikely event of both main and secondary brake circuits failing.
    •     
  • Electro-hydraulic secondary steering activates automatically if low pressure is sensed in primary system.
    •     
  • Hill Assist reduces potential rollback on grades.
    •     
  • Auto Wait Brake applies the service brakes when neutral is selected and button is pressed, allowing quick and easy control of the machine while dumping and loading.
    •     
  • Ground-level fuel fill and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) fill tanks.

LOWER MAINTENANCE COSTS

        
  • Durable design and easier servicing mean maximized uptime and reduced service costs.
    •     
  • Universal joints are lubricated for life, eliminating any maintenance.
    •     
  • Coolant formula improves component life by reducing corrosion.
    •     
  • Entire machine is designed for greater ease of maintenance with side-tilting cab, electrically raised hood, access panels, and Cat Data Link connector.
    •     
  • Extended service intervals for the engine and transmission: 1,000 and 2,000 hours, respectively. Doubled from previous models, resulting in lower total cost of ownership.

SUSTAINABILITY

        
  • The Cat® C13B engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Korea Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards.
    •     
  • Cat diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) * or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.
    •     
  • Extended maintenance intervals not only reduce downtime but decrease the amount of fluid and filters that are replaced over the life of the machine.
    •     
  • VisionLink® displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.
    •     
  • Don't waste fuel idling. Cat VisionLink® online fleet monitoring helps you manage idle time and reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
    •     
  • Cat® Stability Assist for Articulated Trucks helps improve machine safety and uptime by increasing awareness of machine stability during operation.
    •     
  • Cat® Production Measurement provides real-time payload weighing which help you maximize productivity, reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions, all while improving job site efficiency and lowering costs.
*Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to 100% biodiesel (for use of blends higher than 20% biodiesel, consult your Cat dealer).

Note
An optimum system match gives you a major productivity advantage. The 730 is an excellent match for the Cat 349/352 and 336 Hydraulic Excavators and Cat 972, 966, 962, and 950 Wheel Loaders. Having matched loading and hauling tools results in increased production and lower system costs per unit of volume moved.

Note (1)
The declared dynamic operator sound pressure level is 72 dB(A) when ISO 6396:2008 is used to measure the value for an enclosed cab. The measurement was conducted at 70% of the cooling fan’s maximum speed. The sound level may vary at different cooling fan speeds. The measurement was conducted with the cab doors and the cab windows closed. The cab was properly installed and maintained.
Note (2)
Hearing protection may be needed when operating with an open operator station and cab or when not properly maintained or doors/ windows open for extended periods or in noisy environments.
Note (3)
The net power advertised is the power available at the flywheel when the engine is equipped with alternator, air cleaner, aftertreatment and fan at minimum speed.
Note (4)
Net power when the fan is at maximum speed is 274 kW (367 hp) per the SAE reference conditions.
Note (5)
Meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Korea Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards.
Note (6)
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) used in Cat SCR systems must meet the requirements outlined in ISO 22241-1. ISO 22241-1 requirements are met by many brands of DEF, including those that carry the AdBlue® or API certifications.
