Caterpillar GC55K overview

Handling

Lower Cost of Ownership

Informative display panel reduces costly, unscheduled downtime. Easy to access engine allows for quick, easy inspection and maintenance. Rugged mast offers good visibility, while tapered fork bars allow good visibility through the carriage. Hydraulic cushioning on Triplex masts reduces the risk of load damage.

Performance

Unmatched Productivity

Powered by a proven engine giving smooth, quiet performance and high torque at low speeds - essential for handling heavy loads. Electronically-controlled VORTEC induction system optimizes fuel and air mixture to give efficient low-end power. Short wheelbase and a small turning radius give good maneuverability. STR models feature extra-heavy counterweights, which permit a short turning radius, providing greater maneuverability and rearward visibility. Additionally, a vacuum-boosted brake system ensures easy operation. The 3.5 - 5.5 tonne models feature a single speed power shift transmission, while the 6.0 - 7.0 tonne models are equipped with a two-speed automatic transmission.

Cabin & Equipment

Safety & Ergonomics

An open-step frame and easy-to-reach grab bar allow easy entry and exit. Noise reduction and vibration damping reduce operator fatigue. An adjustable, full suspension seat enhances operator comfort by resisting shock and vibration from rough and uneven surfaces. Additionally, the adjustable tilt steering column improves operator comfort. The hydraulic controls allow precise, short-throw operation, while the seat-activated transmission interlock system disengages the drive function if the operator leaves the seat.
