The integrated engine oil and filter system extends service intervals. This combines the oil stabilizing systems, Reserve and Centinel, with the Eliminator self cleaning oil filter to extend, with oil analysis, the oil change interval to 4000 hours.

The high capacity engine radiators are each cooled by a hydraulically driven fan for superior cooling efficiency and requiring little maintenance.

The power train consists of two main drives. Diesel engines or electric motors can be supplied. Each of the two gearboxes drives four identical pumps which draw hydraulic oil from an unpressurized hydraulic tank. Open circuit hydraulics provide maximum cooling and filtering efficiency.

The four-circuit system features a load-limiting governor with oil delivery summation to the working circuits and incorporates pressure cut-off control. Hydropilot prioritizes hydraulic flow giving smooth hydraulic response, simple hydraulic system layout, and a reduced number of components. The hydraulic system includes four large swing-out vertical air-to-oil hydraulic coolers with temperature-regulated hydraulically driven fans.

The ECS digital diagnostic system, mounted in the operator‘s console, provides a text display of real time and stored information about the status of the operating machine. Non serious and critical faults are immediately announced and engines are shut down when major malfunctions occur. The integrated digital storage provides full event history, which can be down loaded with a laptop computer. The ability to electronically record service events provides precise service information to assist in reducing downtime.
