Cab and Controls
Operator Environment
The D7R features an isolation-mounted, pressurized cab
that reduces noise and vibration. Large, single pane windows
offer good views all around the machine for maximum
productivity and enhanced job site safety. The Comfort Series
seat is offset by 15 degrees for better visibility. It features fully
adjustable positioning and armrests to provide a comfortable
platform when working on steep grades or slopes.
Gauges and warning lights on the in-dash instrument cluster
are easy to read, even in direct sunlight. The Cat Monitoring
System Display gives operators and service technicians easy
access to operating and maintenance information. The system
provides three levels of warning and system monitoring so the
operator can stay informed and still concentrate on the job.
Heating and air conditioning vents evenly distribute airflow
within the cab. The cab is pre-wired for a 12-volt or 24-volt
radio, equipped with two speakers, an antenna and a radio
mount recessed in the headliner.

Engine
Power and reliability
ACERT Technology
The D7R features a Cat C9 engine with ACERT Technology.
A series of Caterpillar innovations provide advanced electronic
control, precision fuel delivery and refined air management,
resulting in outstanding performance and lower emissions.
To help customers work within expanding global regulatory
requirements, the C9 engine with ACERT Technology has
been certified to China Stage II (GB 20891-2007) emission
compliance, equivalent to EPA Tier 2/EU Stage II levels.
ATAAC
The air-to-air aftercooler (ATAAC) part of the advanced
air management system brings cool air to the engine.
Thisincreases life, reduces emissions, and helps maximize
fuel efficiency.
Fuel Delivery
Multiple injection fuel delivery very precisely controls
the combustion cycle. This lowers combustion chamber
temperatures to reduce emissions and translates into more
work output per unit of fuel. The Hydraulic Electronic Unit
Injector (HEUI) fuel system controls injection pressure
over the entire engine operating speed range for complete
control over injection timing, duration, and pressure.
Cooling System
The all new cooling system includes engine radiator,
Air-to-Air After Cooler (ATAAC), and hydraulic oil cooler.
Engine radiator consists of two units of bar plate cooler,
which are connected at the top with hose. The aluminum bar
plate construction provides improved durability to debris
plugging, abrasion and corrosion resistance.

Power Train
Powerful efficiency
The power shift transmission, unique Cat torque divider and differential steering are matched with
the C9 engine to deliver outstanding power and reliability. The integrated system efficiently puts more
power to the ground, utilizing more of the available horsepower, so you get more done with less.
Torque Divider
A unique Cat torque divider sends 70 percent of engine torque through a converter and 30 percent
through a direct drive shaft for greater driveline efficiency and higher torque multiplication. The D7R
torque divider provides high reliability and low dynamic torque. Components are designed to absorb
full engine power, and deliver an optimum combination of operator efficiency and driveline reliability.
5
Structures
Rugged design for maximum service
The foundation of every Cat dozer is a rugged frame built to absorb high impact shock loads and
twisting forces. Castings provide added strength to the main case and equalizer bar saddle.
The pivot shaft runs through the mainframe and connects the roller frame forindependent oscillation.
The full-length pivot shaft distributes impact loads throughout the case, reducing bending stresses on the
case. This design eliminates alignment problems and the need for diagonal braces on the roller frames.
The pinned equalizer bar gives the roller frames the ability to oscillate up and down to better match
ground contours for maximum traction and operator comfort. Equalizer bar end pins are oil filled
withlimited slip seals for longer lifeand reduced repair costs.
The D7R also features the tag-link design to mount the blade closer to the machine for excellent
maneuverability, machine balance and blade penetration. The tag-link provides solid lateral stability
andeliminates the need for diagonal bracing since it transfers side loads to the mainframe instead
ofdozer push-arms.

Undercarriage
Proven productivity
Track Shoes
Moderate Service and Extreme Service track shoes are
available to help optimize the machine based on its most
frequent applications. Proper track shoe selection helps
minimize wear for optimal undercarriage life especially
inhigh impact or highly abrasive conditions.

Work Tools
Equipped for the job
Cat Blades
Blade designs feature a strong box-section design, made from steel with high tensile strength to stand up to the most severe
applications. Heavy moldboard construction and hardened bolt-on cutting edges and end bits add strength and durability.
emi-Universal Blade designed for superior load retention and penetration in tightly packed materials. The Semi-Universal
S
blades are available with optional Wear Plates for working in abrasive rock conditions.
traight Blade available for the LGP machine. The Straight blade features ability to handle heavier material with
S
aggressive cutting capability.
ngle Blade can be positioned straight or angled 25 degrees to either side manually. Designed for side casting,
A
pioneeringroads, backfilling and cutting ditches.
Multi-Shank Ripper
The three-shank adjustable paralleogram ripper is an excellent tool for preparing hard-packed material before dozing
operations. The D7R multi-shank ripper also allows the ripper tip angle to be adjustable.
Rear Counterweight
Optimize balance for backing up steep slopes or increasing performance in heavy dozing applications and if another rear
attachment is not specified.
Winch

Integrated Electronic Solutions
AccuGrade Systems
Three (3) systems are available to match the AccuGrade
Ready Option integrated ex-factory selection. All calculate
necessary blade adjustments to achieve grade, make automatic
blade adjustments and calculate cut/fill requirements.
L ASER enables automatic blade control to execute
2Dprofiles and requires direct line of sight to a LASER
transmitter. Field-proven and versatile, the dual laser
system is ideal for fine grading of sites with flat, single
ordual slope surfaces, such as industrial, commercial
and residential building sites.
Universal Total Station (UTS) is a high accuracy dynamic
system to track a machine and monitor blade positioning.
The UTS instrument continuously measures the targets
position and transmits real-time positioning data to the
operator via the in-cab display showing the exact position
of the blade in relation to desired design.
Global Satellite Navigation control systems are the
best solution when a site involves contours, rather
than single or dual slope planes. This technology uses
Satellite Navigation to compare a blades position to
a 3D computerized site plan and signals the operator,
or automatically through the hydraulic system, to
maneuver the blade to achieve the design.
Product Link
The optional Product Link* system is a factory installed or
easily retrofitted wireless system that simplifies equipment
fleet tracking. Using satellite or cellular technology, it
automatically reports key machine parameters such as
location, machine hours, active and logged service codes and
security alarms.
* Product Link licensing not available in all areas.

Serviceability
Built to be Rebuilt
Major components on the D7R are built to be rebuilt,
extending the useful life of the machine. Machine and
component rebuilds save money, and offer a sustainability
element by saving raw materials and natural resources.
