CAT 730 Automobile User Manual


 
Ergonomic Layout. The controls and
layout of the cab are designed to make
it as easy to operate as your car. Quick
and easy to read and simple to operate,
the controls and gauges on the 730 allow
the operator to concentrate on production.
Dash. The Generation II wrap-around
dash puts all controls within easy reach of
the operator. Featuring LED illuminated
rocker switches, large LCD display and a
rear wash wipe rocker switch. It provides
an automotive feel with the industrial
strength you would expect from
Caterpillar.
Viewing Area. The low sloping hood
and placement of the cooling package
behind the cab give the operator excellent
all-around visibility. The large glass
area and central operator position also
provide excellent visibility.
Wipers. The wet arm wiper system
cleans more glass area and is bottom-
mounted to keep it out of the operator’s
line of sight. Windows are tinted to
reduce glare.
Differential Lock Controls. The inter-axle
differential lock is engaged/disengaged
by using a raised switch incorporated into
the drivers foot rest, for ease of operation.
For 100% lock up, all three cross-axle
differential locks act in unison with the
inter-axle differential lock when the foot
switch is activated and a dash mounted
switch is selected. Disengaging the foot
switch opens all differential locks
immediately.
Transmission and Hoist Levers.
The hoist lever provides easy, comfortable
operation. The transmission lever offers
excellent comfort, along with the control
for top gear limit, transmission hold
and neutral lock.
Suspended Pedals. Easy to operate and
reach with plenty of leg and foot room.
Suspended pedals also make it easier
to clean the cab floor by keeping the
pedals out of the dirt.
Cat 2S Monitoring System. Provides an
improved method of monitoring critical
machine functions and alerts the operator
to an immediate or impending problem.
The system provides four levels of
warning.
