User manual CATERPILLAR 988H BROCHURE

[. . . ] The implement system is equipped with one electronicallycontrolled, fully variable piston pump for fast, productive cycles. This is achieved through an integrated solenoid with a force feedback system which keeps the displacement where it is required for optimized pump control. By optimizing pump control, hydraulic oil flow is proportionate to implement lever stroke. Benefits: · · · Lowered fuel consumption by up to five percent Improved hydraulic response, giving the operator better feel and control of the bucket Improved power efficiency and lower system heat Engine The Cat® C18 engine with ACERT® Technology is U. S. [. . . ] Standard, in-cab programmable kickouts are located in the upper left panel. This feature provides more flexibility and improved productivity when the job requires load and dump target heights. Cat Product Link Cat® Product Link enables convenient, remote monitoring of equipment. Get usable information to keep jobs on schedule, maintain machine health and reduce fleet owning and operating costs. · · · Simplify fleet management and monitor machine use Link all machines, regardless of brand Three levels of insight to meet specific business requirements 8 Buckets and Ground Engaging Tools Provide flexibility to match the machine to your application New Performance Series Bucket Offering With the 988H update, Caterpillar introduces a new bucket offering ranging from 6. 4 m³ (8. 3 yd³) to 7. 7 m³ (10 yd³). The new buckets offer design enhancements to include larger throat opening, increased floor length and improved setback angle. These design enhancements yield improved bucket fill factor and load retention in carry position. Spade Edge Rock Buckets These buckets with bolt-on segments are available in 6. 4 m³ (8. 3 yd³) to 7. 7 m³ (10 yd³). Each accepts up to two sets of sidebar protectors (4), featured shouldered, double-strap adapters, easily changed bolt-on segments and several tip options. General Purpose Buckets Available in 6. 3 m³ (8. 2 yd³) Straight Edge Rock, as well as 7. 0 m³ (9. 2 yd³) and 7. 7 m³ (10 yd³) General Purpose configurations. The General Purpose bucket features double strap adapters and accepts two sets of sidebar protectors, bolt-on segments and tips. The General Purpose bucket is available with bolt-on cutting edge, bolt-on adapters or bolt-on adapters with segments. Heavy Duty Rock Bucket This bucket is available with a 6. 4 m³ (8. 33 yd³) capacity and is recommended for use in face loading where abrasion and moderate impact is encountered. This bucket features additional wear protection items including independently attached edge and adapter covers, additional liners and wear plates, one set of sidebar protectors and a thicker base edge. Heavy Duty Granite Bucket This 6. 4 m³ (8. 33 yd³) capacity bucket is recommended for use in face loading where moderate abrasion and high impact is encountered. Offers a number of fuel saving features to further lower fuel consumption, which not only benefits operating cost but reduces the 988H's CO2 footprint. First in this wheel loader size class to meet Tier 3 emissions, and Caterpillar continues to develop technology to meet changing regulatory requirements. Maintenance-free, ease of maintenance or extended maintenance, attention has been paid to lowering routine maintenance cost while eliminating waste to the environment. Built for multiple lives, the Cat 988H is one of the most rebuilt products. To assist with maximizing machine life, Caterpillar provides a number of sustainable options such as our Reman and Certified Rebuild programs. In these programs, reused or remanufactured components can deliver cost savings of 40 to 70 percent, which lowers operating cost while benefiting the environment. Caterpillar offers retrofit packages to bring new features to older machines, maximizing your resource. And, when you go through the Cat Certified Rebuild program, these retrofit kits are part of the rebuild process. · · · · 12 Safety Keeping your people safe and productive is our number one priority At Caterpillar, we have designed the 988H with your most important asset in mind ­ People. Drawing from a history of technological advancements and practical wisdom, you can be assured that your people are protected while working in, on or around the 988H Wheel Loader. Visibility Good visibility, whether it be positioning to the truck or watching for people and vehicles on the site, the 988H offers a number of standard and optional features to enhance job site visibility. Standard and optional features include articulated wiper/washer system with intermittent features, optional rear vision camera, optional high intensity discharge (HID) lights, optional warning beacon and optional turn signals. Access and Egress Getting on and off the machine is one of the leading causes of injury on a job site. The 988H has a number of features to ensure your operator gets safely on and off the 988H. The 988H includes primary and secondary stairwell exits, punch stamped tread plates located throughout the machine, ground level night time stairwell light switch, full perimeter railings on the upper platform, side platform emergency egress and toe kicks and optional roading fenders. Maintenance Safety Daily and routine maintenance should not pose a safety hazard to your operator or service technician.
