Overview

The new D6T dozer makes high efficiency dozing as easy as driving your pickup truck. A smooth-shifting, fully automatic four-speed Cat® transmission continuously optimizes the power train for the application. You save fuel and operator effort, without sacrificing durability, power or productivity. Work smarter too, with a full range of Cat Connect GRADE technology features to fit your job site needs.

Note
All non road Tier 4 diesel engines are required to use only Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuels containing 15 ppm (mg/kg) sulfur or less. Biodiesel blends up to B20 (20% blend by volume) are acceptable when blended with 15 ppm (mg/kg) sulfur or less ULSD. B20 should meet ASTM D7467 specification (biodiesel blend stock should meet Cat biodiesel spec, ASTM D6751 or EN 14214). Cat DEO-ULS™ or oils that meet the Cat ECF-3, API CJ-4, and ACEA E9 specification are required. Consult your OMM for further machine specific fuel recommendations.
Note
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) used in Cat Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems must meet the requirements outlined in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 22241.

Features

Performance

  • New, fully automatic four-speed lock-up clutch transmission continuously optimizes gear and engine speed for the application without added operator input.
  • Added gear between first and second, and seamless lock-up clutch engagement, for exceptionally smooth shifting.
  • Maintains power to the ground through load changes for an aggressive feel in the dirt.
  • Up to 2.5 percent more productive – move more material per hour.*
  • Faster implement response*, especially with GRADE technologies.
  • Versatility – pushing power you want for heavy dozing and the fine control you need for finish grading – all in one easy-to-transport machine.
*Compared to previous model.

Efficiency

  • Full-time Auto Shift for significantly better fuel efficiency with less operator effort – without sacrificing performance.
  • Up to 20 percent more fuel efficient* – as much as 30 percent better in lighter load finish grading applications.
  • Sustainable: fuel savings reduces CO2 production by an average of approximately 16.6 metric tons (17.7 tons) per year.
*Compared to previous model.

Cat Connect Technology

  • Automatically maintain established blade mainfall/cross slope with Cat GRADE with Slope Assist (Standard). Finish jobs faster, with better surface quality and significantly less operator effort. No additional hardware required.
  • Whether production dozing or finish grading, take on 3D design plans more efficiently with Cat GRADE with 3D (Optional). Factory integrated grade control system features cab roof-mounted GNSS antennas to eliminate blade masts and cables. Includes AutoCarry™ to further boost productivity.
  • Versatile, scalable Cat AccuGrade™ (Optional) is a dealer-installed grade control system. Choice of Laser, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) or Universal Total Station (UTS) so you get the right level of accuracy to match your job requirements.
  • Factory equip your dozer for easy installation of an AccuGrade system with the AccuGrade Ready Option (ARO) (Optional).
  • Manage your fleet more effectively and profitably with Product Link™/VisionLink® remote monitoring.

Ease of Operation

  • Change ground speeds easily – in large (half gear) or small (one-tenth gear) increments – with detented thumb roller.
  • New Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) places machine data, settings menus, grade control data and more conveniently in front of the operator.
  • Display enables coded start and operator profiles.
  • Improved blade feedback with updated implement joystick.
  • More ground clearance and better penetration with new high-lift, multi-shank ripper.
