Another operator answering for him; No, between the motor and trans-axle / final drive units, there is no clutch. it's all hydraulic. The only clutches you'd "technically" have on a dozer like this, are the steering controls.
Nice video--is there an approximate hourly cost associated with running a machine like this, taking into account maintenance, fuel, wear, etc. Thanks for posting ;-)
soo, for someone who operates a wheel loader and sporadically small excavators with rotortilt (railroad work), how hard is it to operate a bulldozer? Seems more technical than I assumed, but would like to learn some if there comes an opportunity
Just about the easiest machines to operate, from the standpoint of learning curve, in my opinion. Like anything else, if you have the aptitude on the other machines, it'll just be another machine in your tool box, so to speak.
um obviously you have never ran a cat dozer. unlike a car the "Throttle pedal" called a decelerator reduces engine speed, the leaver above it sets a maximum limit and the foot pedal allows precises control. The reason for this is because you run a dozer at high rpm all day and to constantly push a pedal down would get tiresome so its easier to just depress the pedal when you want to slow down the engine.
A D9L.That U-blade is 6'6" in height.This particular D9 was introduced 30 years ago.The D9L was replaced by the 520hp D10N in 1987.Enjoyed the ride.
Thank you, this was very informative
Outstanding video, thank you very much for posting this. I loved the walk-through on operation procedure.

Thanks for that comment! Im going to try and post some more vids asap. Keep in touch.
Great video.love bulldozers.
Tank you for this istructive video step by step
@darlamcm2 Thanks! I like big bulldozer's too! They have always been my favorite.
Ive only ever operated a brand new one, which is super easy. I always wondered how the old ones work.

it would take decades before you "burn " the clutches out , it doesn't work like you think it does ,,,, as it is actually actuating hydraulic motors ,
nice vid pard ty!
Thanks Matowix!
Great video, thanks
This is the 460HP D9 which weighs something like about 56 or 57 tons doesnt it?
Looks like an N cab.

so you're calling a clutch decelerator like where in America people come on now decelerator what the f** it's f****** clutch
