The D9 is a versatile machine designed to be used in a variety of applications, such as ripping overburden, production dozing, stockpiling, winching, site maintenance, fleet support and reclamation. The elevated sprocket and suspended undercarriage work together, increasing traction and giving the operator a smooth ride in all conditions. The elevated sprocket design transfers implement shock loads to the mainframe, so final drives, axles and steering components are isolated from harsh impacts. The result is higher productivity and longer component life, no matter the application.

HIGH EFFICIENCY. REDUCED FUEL. The torque converter with stator clutch automatically frees up the stator when torque multiplication is not required under low load, resulting in higher drivetrain efficiency for reduced fuel consumption. During higher loads and retarding conditions, it locks automatically. INCREASING STATOR CLUTCH LOCKED Fuel efficiency improvements vary by application, but it has consistently shown a 5% improvement with no noticeable changes felt by the operator. LARGE LOADS. SMOOTH MANEUVERING. The D9 features differential steering, so large blade loads can be smoothly...

PRODUCTIVE DOZING BEGINS WITH A PRODUCTIVE OPERATOR SAFETY-INFUSED A confident operator is a productive operator. So we’ve infused the D9 with safety to help operators feel safe and confident on the job. The operator station offers an exceptional viewing area, with a tapered hood, notched fuel tank, and narrow ripper carriage to give the operator a clear line of sight to front and rear work areas. DESIGNED FOR COMFORT Noise, vibration, stress and fatigue all have an effect on operator performance—so we’ve designed an environment that helps minimize them. The operator station in the D9...
