EngineThe Cat ® 3306 uses direct injection to control fuel consumption and allows lower enginespeeds for reduced stresses and increased life.Aluminum Pistons. The 3306 featurescam-ground three-ring cast taperedaluminum alloy pistons used to reducefriction, decrease heat build-up andprovide excellent oil control. Crankcasejournals are hardened and aluminumbearings are steel-backed. The highfatigue aluminum alloy-bearings surfacenot only has the capability to withstandheavy shock loads during crankshaftrotation, it will also adapt to normalwear of the crankshaft journals.Valves. Valves are stellite face hardenedwith hard alloy steel seats for hardnessthat contributes to long service life.Rebuildability. The 3306 has the abilityto be rebuilt to provide long andreliable life.3306 Diesel Engine. The Caterpillar ® 3306is a six-cylinder, four stroke diesel.The large displacement allows lowerengine speeds for reduced stresses andincreased engine life.Direct Injection. The 3306 maintainsgood productivity per unit of fuel burnedby using direct injection to control fuelconsumption. Optimum weight-tohorsepowerratios minimize cycle times,allow larger blade loads and shorterload times.Injector nozzles are non-clogging andadjustment free.4

Power TrainWith a power train that is designed and built by Caterpillar, the D6G Series 2 ensurescompatibility, maximum performance and reliability.Torque Divider. The torque dividerarrangement is a Caterpillar exclusivethat provides high torque multiplicationwhen under load with direct driveefficiency when completing lowerengine load functions such as backfillingtrenches or spreading material.Power Shift Transmission. Three speedsforward and three speeds reverse,utilizing large diameter, high capacity,oil-cooled clutches.• Modulation system permits fastspeed and direction changes.• Oil-to-water cooler for maximumcooling capacity.• Forced oil flow lubricates and coolsclutch packs to provide maximumclutch life.5

UndercarriageThe Caterpillar undercarriage is designed for optimized machine balance and best possibleperformance and component life.Roller Frames. The track roller frameis a reinforced box section constructionwith seven lifetime lubricated trackrollers per side and outside mountedcarrier rollers, two per side.Rollers and Idlers. Feature symmetricDuo-Cone seals for long sealing life toprevent oil loss and dirt entry. Toric ringsmaintain performance over a wide rangeof temperatures. Rollers and idlers arelifetime lubricated, serviceable andrebuildable to provide value. Abutmentstylecaps securely attach rollers andidlers to the bogies.All idlers, track and carrier rollersare life-time lubricated and requireno periodic maintenance intervals.Track Shoes. Track shoes are availablein sizes to match the working conditions.Guards. Front and rear guiding guardsare standard.Sealed and Lubricated Track.Minimizes internal bushing wear withthe pin by a thin film of lubricantand retained by a polyurethane seal.Extends service life of the undercarriageas a system.6

Work ToolsWork Tools and Ground Engaging Tools provide the flexibility to match the machineto the job, maximizing performance.Bulldozers. All blades feature astrongbox-section design that resiststwisting and cracking. Blades are madeof Cat DH-2 steel that has high tensilestrength and stands up to the mostsevere applications. Heavy moldboardconstruction and hardened bolt-oncutting edges and end bits add strengthand durability.Straight Blade. The straight bladecan handle a wide variety of materialsincluding heavy material. With the highkW per meter (hp/ft) of cutting edge,aggressive penetration is achieved.Angle Blade. The angle blade can bepositioned straight or angled 25 degreesto either side making this blade aversatile option.Semi-Universal Blade. The Semi-Universal blade is built for toughapplications where penetration is moreimportant than capacity. The bladewings are designed for superior loadretention and penetration in tightlypacked materials and for finishingapplications.Multi-Shank Ripper. Multi-shankrippers are made to penetrate toughmaterial fast and rip thoroughly for usein a variety of materials.Cutting Edges and End Bits. Cutting edgesare made of DH-2 steel. End bits aremade of DH-3 steel to providemaximum service life in tough materials.7

Operator StationThe operator station is designed with optimum comfort and maximum productivity in mind.8

Directional Controls. Steering andtransmission controls are locatedconveniently to the operator’s leftfor comfortable operation.Dozer Blade Controls. The dozercontrols are located on the operator’sright hand side.Walk Through Operator Area.The operator area has a walk throughdesign providing a comfortable operatingenvironment with the controls withineasy reach.Seat. A comfortable suspension seat isable to be adjusted fore and aft for greateroperator comfort. Arm rests also helpprovide comfort for all day operation.Wide 76 mm (3 in) seat belt is standard.Monitoring System. A machinemonitoring system lets you track thefollowing machine systems:• Fuel level• Coolant temperature• Transmission/torque convertertemperature• Service hour meter• Air cleaner service indicator• Engine oil pressure and alternatorare monitored by a warning lampand audible alarm system.Brake Pedal. A single brake pedalactuates both tracks to makeoperation easier.Air Conditioner. An optional airconditioner with strategic vents providea comfortable environment in a varietyof weather conditions.Cab. The optional cab is pressurizedto keep dust out. A 3 speed blower fanis standard.9
