The Cat 730C2, with a 17 m3 (23 yd3) 28 tonnes (31 tons) capacity, offers demonstrated
reliability and durability, high performance and productivity, superior operator comfort
and lower operating costs.
Updating the successful 730C to include all axle enclosed wet brakes makes the
730C2 a more attractive proposition for our customers. Class leading levels of
performance and operator comfort make for a productive machine all day long.

Engine
Optimized Performance, Proven Reliability
4
Every Tier 4 Final/Stage IV Cat engine with ACERT Technology is equipped with
a combination of proven electronic, fuel, air and aftertreatment components.
The right technologies fine-tuned for the right applications result in:
• High machine performance across a variety of applications.
• Enhanced reliability through commonality and simplicity of design.
• Maximized uptime and reduced cost with world-class support from the
Cat dealer network.
• Minimized impact of emission systems: designed to be transparent to the operator
without requiring interaction.
• Durable designs with long life to overhaul.
• Delivering better fuel economy with minimized maintenance costs while providing
the same great power and response.
Aftertreatment Technologies
The aftertreatment solution utilized for Tier 4 Final/Stage IV products is the next
evolutionary step for Cat engines with ACERT Technology. To meet the additional
80% reduction in NOx emissions required by Tier 4 Final/Stage IV emission standards,
Caterpillar engineers only needed to add one new system to the already proven
aftertreatment solution in use, Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR).
5
Transmission
Class Leading Transmission Technology
6
Automatic Features
Ease of Use, Improved Performance
Clutches are also automatically disengaged when not required, eliminating any impact on machine maneuverability, such as making
a tight turn at the top of a grade.
The ATC system helps reduce tire and driveline abuse, eliminating lost efficiency caused by improper manual operation of the
differential clutches, and reducing the cost of premature tire replacement.
Regeneration
When set to automatic, regeneration will occur without any interaction from the operator. The three modes of regeneration shown
below allow the articulated truck to adapt to specific site conditions in the most efficient manner.
Automatic: The machine carries out “on-the-go” regeneration when the engine control module determines conditions are acceptable.
The operator requires no action and the articulated truck is not required to stop working.
Automatic: Low idle regeneration is initiated when the machine is in a reduced operating mode for a predetermined period of time,
and a number of conditions are met. The system is designed so that the operator can interrupt regeneration at any time.
Manual: A manual regeneration is initiated by pressing the regeneration switch for five seconds. The machine must be brought
to a non-operating mode in order to perform a manual regeneration.
7
Suspension and Braking
Performance with Comfort
All three axles have oscillating a-frames with lateral tie rods,
controlling sideways movement of the axle and providing stability.
In conjunction with suspension system, it allows the operator to travel
at speed over rough terrain and softens impact loads on structures
and components.
8
Operator Environment
Improve Productivity with a Comfortable
and Confident Operator
9
Ease of Operation
Designed Around the Operator
Control Layout
The cab is designed to make all aspects of machine operation as
simple as possible. The controls and gauges are easy to read and
straightforward to operate, allowing the operator to focus on safe
machine operation while maintaining productivity.
10
Dashboard
The integrated wrap-around dash puts all controls within easy reach of the operator. Featuring LED illuminated
rocker switches for the dash dimmer, rear wash wiper, hazard warning, work lamp, secondary steer, A/C and
cigar lighter. Delivers an automotive feel with the industrial strength you would expect from Caterpillar.

Durability and Reliability
Proven Structures and Components
12
Cat CONNECT Technology
Monitor, Manage, and Enhance
Job Site Operations
Cat LINK
Cat LINK technologies, like Product Link wirelessly connect
you to your equipment, giving you valuable insight into how
your machine or fleet is performing. The system tracks
location, hours, fuel usage, productivity, idle time, and
diagnostic codes through the online VisionLink user interface
so you can make timely, fact-based decisions to maximize
efficiency, improve productivity, and lower costs.
Cat PAYLOAD
Cat PAYLOAD technologies like Cat Production Measurement
bring payload weighing to the cab to help optimize job site
efficiency and productivity. Operators can view real-time load
weights on the integrated display and know precisely when
target is achieved, while cab-mounted external payload lights
signal the loader operator when to stop loading to reduce
overloading. Operators can track daily productivity from the
cab, with quick access to truck payload weights, loads and
cycle counts, and daily totals; or remotely via LINK technologies.
13
Serviceability
Maximize Uptime and Reduce Costs
Lubrication Points
Lubrication points are grouped in the hitch area for ease of servicing. Universal joints
are lubed for life, eliminating any maintenance. An Autolube system is also optional,
and now includes alerts via Product Link for low grease levels and faults.
Radiator
The radiator package is located behind the cab, which provides protection from
frontal impacts and offers easy access to the inlet and outlet sides of the radiator.
14
Complete Customer Support
A Commitment to Your Success
Selection Replacement
Make comparisons of the machines you are considering before Repair or rebuild? Your Cat dealer can help you evaluate the
you buy. Your Cat dealer can help. costs so you can make the right choice.
Maintenance
Repair option programs guarantee the cost of repairs up front.
Diagnostic programs such as S∙O∙SSM and Technical Analysis
help you avoid unscheduled repairs.
15
Sustainability
Making Sustainable Progress Possible
All Cat Articulated Trucks are designed to maximize efficiency and productivity while conserving natural resources.
Air Quality
The Cat C13 ACERT engine incorporating the Cat Clean Emission Module (CEM) meets Tier 4 Final/Stage IV emission standards, and has
the flexibility of running on either ultra-low-sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel or up to B20 bio-diesel blended with ULSD. All fuels must have
no more than 15 ppm sulfur in the U.S., 10 ppm sulfur in the EU.
Recycle Waste
The Caterpillar Design, Manufacturing, Assembly and Test facility at Peterlee in England recycles 98% of all waste produced with
zero waste to landfill.
Second Life
Rebuild and reman are designed and built into all Cat C Series Articulated Trucks. This gives machines a longer life while reducing
waste and replacement costs.
16
Safety
Designed and Built into Every Machine
Product Safety

Gradeability/Speed/Rimpull
To determine performance, read from Gross Weight down to % Total Resistance. Total Resistance equals actual % grade plus 1% for each
10 kg/metric ton (20 lb/ton) of Rolling Resistance. From this point, read horizontally to the curve with the highest attainable speed range.
Then, go down to Maximum Speed. Usable Rimpull depends on traction available.
