Bulldozer engine and design

The Cat D6K2 LGP bulldozer comes with a Cat C4.4 ACERT engine with twin turbochargers that combines with a hydrostatic transmission to give you improved fuel efficiency versus earlier models. In addition, at the time of design, it also boasted the most power-dense drive train in its size class.

So, what’s the advantage of the hydrostat transmission? It offers the operator superior maneuverability, faster steering response, and greater capability to utilise full blade loads. Meaning a more efficient site for you.

Equipped with eco mode, this bulldozer will automatically optimise engine speed, whilst maintaining an even ground speed. Therefore, when compared to earlier models, this function allowed for a saving of 17% in fuel use when completing tasks such as grading and other lighter blade load applications.

Idling is a big drain on-site costs, thus the Cat D6K2 comes with a reduced idling function. This works by reducing engine speed when idling, or even shutting the engine down after a specific time. Therefore, offering a further saving in fuel in addition to eco mode and meets with idling regulations.

Operating in poor conditions? Never fear the automatic traction control works to reduce track slip in adverse conditions. Thus, improving productivity and finish surface quality.

Dozer Technology

Cat are market-leading in the supply of technology found in their bulldozers, and the Cat D6K2 is no exception. To help support operators of all experience levels, this hardworking machine comes supplied with:

  • Cat Grade with Slope Assist automatically maintains the operator’s pre-established blade position without a GPS signal. Put it to work building pads, creating simple design plans on the go, or working where GPS is unavailable
  • Slope indicate shows machine cross-slope and fore/aft orientation right on the main display to help operators with slope work
  • Stable Blade has been improved to make it even easier to get smoother surfaces faster when operating manually. It works seamlessly with operator blade inputs to help reduce imperfections and produce a smoother surface
  • PRODUCT LINK takes the guesswork out of equipment management and this bulldozer is PRODUCT LINK enabled
  • All Cat Grade systems are compatible with radios and base stations from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica.

If you have any additional technology needs, talk to the ASHBROOK team to confirm what can be provided.

Operator Comfort

As you’d expect, the Cat D6K2 LGP bulldozer comes with a spacious cab that offers day-long comfort to the operator.  For ease of use, there are wide door openings and an air suspension seat.

There is excellent visibility to the blade, curbs, and tight spaces to help the operator work with precision. The ergonomic, seat-mounted joystick controls are comfortable for day-long use and isolate vibration.
