CS 663 E Caterpillar CS 663 E Specifications & Technical Data (2001—2007)

Engine

Cat 3056 ATAAC Turbocharged Diesel Engine delivers 134 kW (179 hp) and is built for performance and reliability without sacrificing fuel economy.

Steering

A priority-demand hydraulic power-assist steering system provides smooth low-effort steering. The system always receives the power it needs regardless of other hydraulic functions.

Frame

Fabricated from heavy gauge steel plate and rolled sections and joined to the drum yoke at the articulation pivot. Articulation is structurally reinforced and joined by hardened steel pins. Two vertical pins provide a steering angle of ± 34° and a horizontal pin allows frame oscillation of ± 15°. Sealed-for-life hitch bearings never need greasing or shimming.

Vibratory System

Pod-style weight housings ensure peak vibratory performance and minimal service. Pods are replaceable and feature bearing lubrication change intervals of 3 years/3000 hours. The pod-style weight system, proven reliable on D-Series Soil Compactors, delivers superior compactive force while offering serviceability advantages.

Dual Propel Pumps

The exclusive dual pump propel system provides a separate balanced hydraulic flow to both the rear drive axle and the front drum drive motor. This system enables the operator to achieve superior gradeability and maintain machine control while compacting on a grade. Dual pumps also minimize drum and wheel spin-out in loose underfoot conditions.

Visibility

The one-piece sloped hood design provides exceptional operator visibility to the outside edge of the rear tires and to the rear of the machine.

Operator’s Station

Based on the successful Cat G-Series Wheel Loader operator’s station, the E-Series Soil Compactors feature excellent operator comfort and visibility. A tilting steering column, propel lever wrist rest, grouped control gauges and conveniently located control switches enhance operator productivity and reduce fatigue. Four heavy-duty isolation mounts provide a smooth ride.

Serviceability

The newly designed one-piece fiberglass hood tilts forward to allow access to the engine and daily maintenance points. A ground level lockable service door provides convenient access to the fuel fill port. Steps to the operator platform swing-out for easier access and replacement of the hydraulic oil filters. The operator’s station tilts forward to provide access to the hydraulic pumps.
