[. . . ] 6 Electronic Controls Electronic controls improve machine response and provide advanced diagnostic capabilities that result in better machine availability. The Product Link option allows remote monitoring of location, machine system status, and alert indicators. 7 Push-Pull Arrangement (627G only) For maximum production capability, Caterpillar offers an optional push-pull arrangement for the 627G, which allows two push-pull scrapers to act as a self-loading machine. 12 Auger Arrangement Provides self-loading capability with the same wide material appetite as an open bowl machine. [. . . ] Gears 3-8 operate in direct-drive for drive train efficiency during the haul. All scraper gears operate in converter drive for increased torque capability during the cut and fill. Provides larger contact area between gears than countershaft transmissions for greater load-carrying capacity. Neutral Coast Inhibitor. Neutral coast inhibitor prevents the transmission from shifting into neutral if the operator selects neutral while moving, as well as maintaining the flow of the transmission fluid. Allows the operator to maintain converter drive for increased rimpull, or hold the current gear for enhanced control. Allows the operator to manually set the top gear (3rd-8th) available to match conditions or the hauling speed of the fleet to specific job-site needs. 6 Electronic Controls Instant response optimizes machine performance, and advanced diagnostic capabilities maximize machine availability. Easy Access Diagnostics. Diagnostic codes are accessible through the EMS main display module, via the Electronic Technician (Cat ET). This offers a head start on problem solving, with a radio call often providing the service technician with the knowledge of which tools, troubleshooting guides, and possibly even replacement parts to bring to the machine. The Caterpillar EUI system has fewer moving parts than mechanical unit injection and requires few adjustments. ECM communicates with the monitoring system (EMS) to warn the operator when problems arise, preventing major damage from occurring. EUI engines have virtually no mechanically controlled parts to wear or adjust. · · · controlled oil flow dampens rebound oscillation leveling valve automatically centers piston in cylinder for all loads steel castings are used extensively to eliminate many welded joints and increase strength double-kingbolt design withstands high external forces and simplifies installation and removal 3 2 4 · 4 1 5 7 8 6 8 Nitrogen Accumulators. Vertically mounted hydraulic cylinder transfers road shocks to nitrogen accumulators. Nitrogen accumulators absorb and dampen road shocks, thus preventing these loads from being transmitted to the operator. An operator-selectable lockout switch, located on the joystick, locks the cushion hitch for improved control of the cutting edge during loading and dumping. 10 Scraper Bowl Designed for optimum loading, material retention and ejection. Redesigned Bowl. Excellent productivity with a 10% increase in bowl capacity, improved draft arm protection, and better load retention. Low-profile design of the bowl offers less resistance to incoming materials, while cellular construction adds strength and dent resistance to bowl sides and floor. Combines constant spreading control while minimizing carryback material. A spill guard on the ejector (standard on 627G, optional on MD1001) helps retain material and keep it from spilling over onto the rear of the scraper. Cutting Edges. For most efficient loading, use the thinnest edge that provides satisfactory wear life and impact resistance. A wide variety of Ground Engaging Tool (GET) options, such as standard, serrated, and abrasion resistant material (ARM), are available to optimize scraper loading in various materials. Contact your Cat Dealer to learn more about the best tools for your applications. Tandem Engines. [. . . ] Diagnostic programs such as SM S·O·S Analysis and Coolant Sampling and Technical Analysis help avoid unscheduled repairs. Your Cat dealer can help you evaluate the cost involved so you can make the right choice. Product Support. Cat dealers use a world-wide computer network to find in-stock parts to minimize machine down time. You receive the same warranty and reliability as new products at substantial cost savings.
