LATEST FEATURES

    
• Cab Monitor Improvements

    
1. Continuously improved user interface allows for intuitive navigation, minimizing performance interruption with the easy-to-use touchscreen menu.
    
2. Identify apps quickly with a grid list view, abbreviated app names, and categorized menu options.
    
3. A new notification center keeps important information visible to the operator, and displays messages without shrinking the camera view. 
    
4. Color coded notifications set critical messages apart from the rest.
    
5. Use the in-monitor QR code to learn about machine and technology features through a full suite of “how-to” videos.

    
• Enhance visibility to make service work easier and safer with optional inspection lighting.
    
• Standard integrated vehicle health management system alerts the operator with service guidance and parts needed to enhance uptime.   

Work in Comfort

    
• Choose between Deluxe and Premium cab options.
    
• The Deluxe seat is heated and air adjustable while the Premium seat is heated, cooled, and adjusts automatically.
    
• Get in and out of the cab easier using the tip-up left console. Feel more comfortable in the cab while you work with reduced cab vibrations from advanced viscous mounts.
    
• Control the excavator comfortably with easy-to-reach controls.
    
• Stow your gear with plenty of in-cab storage beneath and behind the seat, overhead, and in the consoles. A cup holder, bottle holder, and coat hook are also provided.
    
• Bluetooth® integrated radio allows for seamless mobile phone connection to listen to music, podcasts, and hands-free calling.
    
• Easily adjust the climate control system using the touchscreen monitor or jog dial.

Simple to Operate

    
• Start the engine with the push-to-start button, a Bluetooth key fob, or the unique Operator ID function.
    
• Program your power mode and joystick preferences using Operator ID; the excavator remembers your settings each time you go to work.
    
• Navigate quickly on the standard high-resolution 254 mm (10 in) touchscreen monitor or with the aid of the jog dial control.
    
• Not sure how a function works or how to maintain the excavator? Simply access the operator's manual on the touchscreen monitor.
    
• The axle locks at zero speed and unlocks when the travel pedal is activated. The axle can also be manually locked with a button on the right-hand console.
    
• Tiltrotator attachments--ours or other brands--work seamlessly with Cat 2D Grade, Assist, Payload, and E-Fence . With no additional hardware required, all you have to do is simply select "Third Party Tiltrotator System Installation" in the monitor, do the calibration, and get to work.
    
• Cat continues to improve user interface functionality for operators of all skill levels. The touchscreen monitor is an easy-to-use operating tool that presents the jobsite dashboard with an intuitive format. Productivity applications are displayed in grid-view to read on-the-go, and touchscreen navigation is programmed to make sure job performance continues without any hold ups.

Boost Efficiency and Productivity with Integrated Cat Technologies

    
• Boost productivity versus traditional grading with optional Cat Grade with 2D system.
    
• Optional Cat Payload helps you achieve precise load targets to improve your operating efficiency. Pick up a load of material--with a bucket and thumb combination or grapple and clamshell attachments--and get a real-time weight estimate without swinging.
    
• Combine Payload with VisionLink® and remotely manage your production targets or take payload data with you. 
    
• Upgrade to our dual antenna GNSS for maximum grading efficiency. The system lets you create and edit designs on the touchscreen monitor while you’re on the job, or you can have the plan design sent to the excavator to make your work easier. Plus, you get added benefits of avoidance zones, cut and fill mapping, lane guidance, and augmented reality along with advanced positioning capability.
    
• Optional Grade Assist helps you stay on grade – simply and effortlessly – with single-lever digging. Set your desired bucket angle and let Bucket Assist automatically maintain the angle in sloping, leveling, fine grading, and trenching applications
    
• Optional 2D E-fence is integrated right out of the factory to prevent the excavator from moving outside operator defined set points.
    
• All Cat Grade systems are compatible with radios and base stations from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica. Already invested in a grade infrastructure? You can install grade systems from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica onto the machine.
