Maneuverability and Control
        
  • The reliable track undercarriage leverages proven designs from Cat mini excavators and uses an automatic tensioning system for consistent performance and longer track life 
    •     
  • A robust propel system features dual displacement motors at each leg post, utilizing a cross-drive pattern for additional traction in straight cuts
    •     
  • Automatic traction control helps maintain consistent speed in the most challenging applications
    •     
  • The articulating right rear leg can be easily positioned outside to help provide extra stability and traction in demanding cuts or positioned in front of the rotor chamber for flush cutting

    •     
  • A Standby/Resume button pauses major machine functions and lowers engine speed to conserve fuel during truck exchanges, and when ready to resume milling a push of the button automatically brings the machine back up to production at the same speed 
    •     
  • Once a rotor speed is selected and the cutting pattern is established, use of the Cruise Control button stores the propel speed and repeatedly returns to that same speed for every pass, and when used in combination with Standby/Resume allows for easy and precise pattern control
    •

Sustainability
        
  • The Cat C9.3B engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V and Korea Stage V emission standards
    •     
  • Cat U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Korea Stage V Final 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. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.
    •     
  • Engine Idle Speed Management helps maximize fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by elevating engine speed to an intermediate idle to complete specific tasks and returning to low idle when finished. 
    •     
  • Automatic Load Control helps you save fuel and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by automatically matching milling speed to engine load for maximum production at peak efficiency.
    •     
  • Standby/Resume pauses major machine functions and lowers engine speed to conserve fuel and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions during truck exchanges.
    •     
  • Traction Control maintains consistent traction to increase machine efficiency, helps reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
    •     
  • Cat Scheduled Oil Sampling (S•O•SSM) Services helps reveal excessive wear, contaminated fluids or other “unseen” issues that can shorten component life. In many cases, you can extend oil and coolant change intervals by using fluid monitoring. Consult your Cat dealer or the machine’s operation and maintenance manual for more information.
    •     
  • Cat Grade with Grade and Slope for cold planers allows for accurate material planning to help reduce overages during the paving process and increase final project quality for a longer lasting road surface.
    •     
  • Don’t waste fuel idling. Cat VisionLink online fleet monitoring helps you manage idle time and reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
    •     
  • VisionLink displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.


* Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels.
