User manual CATERPILLAR SH650 BROCHURE

[. . . ] The SH650 answers customer needs for increased lift capacity, enhanced slope capability, ease of operation, performance and transportability. Pipelayer Winches Integrated, robust components New heavy-duty winch design works with updated machine hydraulics for greater productivity. Oil-disc brakes provide smooth operation and positive retention of boom and hook positions. A modular, pin-on design allows for fast replacement and easy field service. Interchangeable parts between hook and boom winch assemblies help reduce cost and downtime. [. . . ] · A more durable access ladder design aids access/egress to the operator station, and can be removed to minimize the machine's shipping envelope. · Additional mirrors further enhance the operator's visibility all around the machine. · Ergonomically designed seat is positioned for enhanced visibility to the trench and for convenient access to key operator control levers and pedals. · Monitoring system provides instant feedback on the condition of operating systems and records performance data for diagnostics and to help manage undercarriage wear. · 12-volt outlets power devices like cell phones and laptop computers. 4 Implement and Steering Controls Ergonomically Designed for Ease of Operation 2 Pipelayer Control Right joystick places all of the boom, hook and counterweight function control in one hand. Low-effort, ergonomically designed control handle allows simultaneous, precise positioning of the load line and boom. 1) Increment/decrement buttons on pipelayer control handle provide continuous adjustable throttle. 3) Joystick forward lowers the hook and joystick back raises the hook. 5) Rocker switch allows the operator to increase/decrease engine speed to a set level with the touch of a button. 4 1 3 Quick Drop Control The new quick drop control, when pushed, will allow the load on the hook to free fall to the ground. This control is to be used only in emergency situations where the load must be released immediately. The deep penetration and consistency of robotic welding insures quality for long life and durability. Undercarriage Engineered for Performance The SH650 features a non-suspended, Cat elevated sprocket undercarriage. Track roller frame length has been increased by 128 mm (5. 03 in), and the rear idler has been moved down and rearward, resulting in more track on the ground to enhance machine stability, especially on steep slopes. Undercarriage components are built for long life and ease of serviceability. Rollers and idlers feature Duo-ConeTM seals to help prevent oil loss and dirt entry. Tubular roller frames resist bending and twisting, with added reinforcement where operating loads are highest. Cat Tough SteelTM sprocket segments are precision machined after heat treat for proper fit. Segments can be removed or replaced without breaking the track. Pipelayer track is designed for high-impact and high load applications. The Positive Pin Retention Sealed and Lubricated Track is an exclusive Caterpillar design that locks the link to the pin for enhanced service life. Track shoes help optimize the machine for performance in demanding underfoot conditions. The SH650 features an 864 mm (34 in) super extreme service grouser with sealed and lubricated track (48 sections) and clipped shoes. 8 Solutions to Make Work Easier and More Efficient Integrated Technologies Cat Product Link* Remote monitoring with Product Link improves overall fleet management effectiveness. Events and diagnostic codes, as well as hours, fuel, idle time and other detailed information are transmitted to a secure web based application, VisionLinkTM. VisionLink includes powerful tools to convey information to users and dealers, including mapping, working and idle time, fuel level and more. [. . . ] · Enlarged service panel doors provide easier access to all maintenance locations. ­ Manage costs with preventive maintenance programs like Custom Track Service, S·O·SSM analysis, and guaranteed maintenance contracts.
