• S·O·S ports simplify maintenance and allow for quick, easy extraction of samples for fluid analysis.

RELIABILITY YOU CAN COUNT ON

    
• Work up to 3000 m (9,840 ft) above sea level without de-rating.

    

• Standard high-ambient temperature capability is 52º C (125º F) with cold start capability at –32º C (–25º F).

    

• Auto warm up speeds up hydraulic oil warming in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.

    

• Three levels of fuel filtration protect the engine from dirty diesel fuel.

    

• Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to increase undercarriage life.
