Caterpillar Zeroes in on Simplicity with New Utility Compactors

Easy to operate, monitor, and transport

Caterpillar Utility Compactor
Caterpillar is staying true to their reputation for efficient and profitable Paving products with the introduction of their CB1.7 and CB1.8. Not only are these new additions easy to operate, quick, to service, and simple to transport, but they also provide exceptional versatility for their size class. They are named aptly for their standard operating weights, making it easy for operators to choose the machine they need for the job at hand, whether it be for paving bike paths, courtyards, town centers, or parking lots, doing patchwork, or performing shoulder work.

Easy to Operate
Simple operating features include toggle-type switches for quick and easy activation of machine functions. The mechanical propel lever provides quick reaction for precise control, while vibrant LED lights on the console simplify operation in low light conditions.

Simple to Transport
Moving to a new job site has never been easier. The single point lifting option and durable hitch design makes hoisting these machines onto transports quick and easy. The foldable ROPS option provides a short height and enables the machine to move under and around low structures when performing compaction procedures.

Efficient Compaction Performance
The high amplitude vibratory system combined with large diameter drums and the exclusive, eccentric weight design delivers excellent compaction performance. With automatic activation and front or both drum vibratory capabilities, this machine provides the results that job sites require.

Closely Monitor
These new models are designed to easily fit in the rental fleet. Product Linkā„¢ capability enables close monitoring to keep owners informed of machine location and service needs. The simple control panel and spacious platform offer comfort to suit a variety of operators. Durable components and the fuel efficient engine maximize uptime and lower lifetime operating costs.

Straight-Forward Service
Full access to remote drains, sampling ports, and filters makes service fast and easy. Long service intervals for the engine oil and vibratory drums keeps the machine on the job site longer for optimal operational needs.
