FLEXIBILITY OF VALVE DESIGN

Two groups of hydraulic valves are available, allowing the machine to be configured to work with different felling heads. The valve design maximizes the versatility of the machine. 1) High-performance felling heads, requiring 170-190 l / min (45-50 gallons / min) for grabs and batteries. As a rule, one cylinder works with each lever, two cylinders for each set. 2) Felling heads with low flow, requiring 110-120 l / min (29-32 gallons / min) for grips and batteries. Usually one hydraulic cylinder and connecting lever activate a set of levers. Note. Consult the manufacturer of the working tool for flow requirements before selecting one of the above hydraulic devices.

CAT HYDRAULIC OIL

Provides maximum protection against mechanical and corrosive wear in all hydraulic systems. High zinc content reduces wear and prolongs pump life. Bio-Degradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES) is also available from your Cat dealer and provides an environmentally friendly alternative to mineral-based oils.

TOUGHGUARD ™ Hoses

Durable hoses along the boom and stick provide durability and flexibility. The ToughGuard cover consists of a thin layer of UHMW polyethylene, combined with a rubber coating that provides exceptional abrasion resistance.

OPERATOR COMFORT

The operator’s workplace is equipped with joysticks and a seat to reduce operator fatigue and ease control. The HVAC system with updated air ducts provides better cooling and heating. A large side window with a side screen provides fresh air into the cabin, and insulated mounted cab and engine reduce noise and vibration. Ergonomically located pedals with adjacent steps provide operator comfort while the vehicle is moving.

TRANSPARENCY

The cab design optimizes the support structures and window layout to provide an excellent view of the operator from the front, side and rear. Large polycarbonate ceiling luminaire provides excellent upward visibility.

SECURITY

A standard 32 mm (1.25 inch) Margard front window provides maximum operator protection. Universal logging cabs comply with FOPS / ROPS / OPS / WCB, OR-OSHA requirements. The roof window provides an alternative exit hatch.

MONITOR

The IQAN MD3 display allows the operator to constantly monitor the operating system of the machine. The monitor has been slightly reduced to improve operator viewing in the front right corner of the cab. The IQAN control system allows the operator to adjust all control parameters.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The B Series tracked feller bunchers have dual 12-volt cab cabs and one 24-volt power point. Power is provided by two 12-volt unattended batteries and a 95 amp generator. An additional starting device in cold weather can be selected to provide two additional batteries and HD start cables.

INCLINED MECHANISM

Possessing the industry’s most reliable tilt mechanism, the 522B tipper features a patented 3-cylinder tilt mechanism that tilts forward and side by side at the same time. Trunnion cylinders are mounted on 51 mm (2 inches) steel plates and transfer vertical loads down to the caterpillar-body frame border, placing the load on the caterpillar and the ground.

CYLINDERS

The three-cylinder tilt mechanism shows simultaneously a 21 degree tilt forward and an 11 degree tilt from side to side.

GROUND CLEARANCE

The 522B has an excellent ground clearance of 889 mm (35 inches) and an open body design. This provides increased mobility, eliminating body clutter with large stumps, rocks or other obstacles.

RUNNING

The machines in the 522B series use larger 330-size components, which ensures a long service life and lower operating and maintenance costs.

TOURIST MOTOR

Proven final drives and drive motors provide traction up to 34,246 kg (75,500 lbs) as standard on 522B, providing superior grip and power to the ground. On the 522B, an optional High Drawbar final drive is available, providing increased traction up to 38,555 kg (85,000 lb). Three (3) travel speed ranges are standard.

TRAIL GUARDS

All models are equipped with full-length protective covers to maximize footing support in all types of terrain.

BODY CAR

The 522B has a bolt-on track for body design. This provides a narrower width of the gauge or allows you to adjust the width of the gauge to improve the stability of the machine and improve performance on steep slopes. Model 522B provides maximum ground clearance and a smooth body surface to prevent debris from snagging or large obstacles. Precise welded track frames reduce bending and increase the durability of the rollers and tracks over the entire service life of the machine.

MEDIATED ROLLERS

Series B models offer a choice of either standard single-flange support rollers for moderate terrain and warm climates, or star-shaped support rollers for harsh terrain and cold climates. Nine lower road wheels are used on each side.

BOOM AND STICK

With a lifting capacity of up to 6,124 kg (13,500 lbs.) With a lifting capacity of up to 6.2 m, the 500 series dominates the competition in its size class. Thanks to the market leading capacity, a maximum reach of 8.1 m (26.6 feet) and the possibility of tight fixation of the handle, these machines provide high-performance cutting in all applications.

TOOLS

From cutting plantations to choosing large-diameter timber, Cat logging equipment provides reliable and efficient logging solutions.
