The completely redesigned cab, common with the D5 and D6/D6 XE, raises the standard in comfort and productivity. The smooth-shifting transmission continuously adjusts for maximum efficiency and power to the ground without added operator input. Like the D6 and D8T, the new D7 is driven by a fully automatic four-speed transmission. Blade capacity is increased by 10% and the elevated sprocket undercarriage delivers better ride and balance, as well as increased penetration force.
The D7 moves up to 8% more material per hour than the D7E, with about 6% more weight and 12% more horsepower, said the company.
The new D7 dozer replaces the electric-drive D7E. The machine uses a Cat C9.3B diesel ranted 265 hp (197 kW) and an operating weight of 65,644 lbs.
A fully automatic four-speed transmission offers optimal fuel and dozing efficiency, plus ease of operation. The new Cat D7 dozer offers high drive undercarriage design, increased performance and the broadest choice of easy-to-use technology features to help you get the most from your bulldozer.
