PLANT AND EQUIPMENT • meets EU Stage V and U . S . EPA Tier 4 Final emission standards with alternative emissions packages available . Its shift-on-the-go transmission offers increased roading speeds of 40 km / h ( 25 mph ), and larger fuel tank capacities of 30 % for the 906 and 12 % for the 907 and 908 deliver extended work cycles .
Efficient , high-illumination LED lights options are now available for both working / roading and under-hood-service lights to better illuminate work areas in low-light conditions . Task-focused LED under-hood lighting simplifies servicing in poor ambient light . •
When working in dusty environments , the new reversing-fan option assists in keeping cooling cores clean for more efficient temperature control . Through an in-cab soft-touch button , the system can be turned off , set to operate in an automatic mode or momentarily activated by the operator . Automatic mode uses the factory-setting to reverse direction for 10 seconds every 10 minutes . Frequency and duration of automatic reversing can be changed easily by the operator via the new control monitor .
Enhanced hydraulics and structures To meet demand for increased multifunctionality with lift and tilt while powering hydromechanical tools , these wheel loaders feature a new standard pressure compensated valve , allowing operators to simultaneously control implements and operate hydromechanical attachments seamlessly . Increased working auxiliary pressures make work easier and improve steering to reduce operator fatigue .
Modifications to the optional skid steer coupler improve visibility through the coupler when setting fork times . In conjunction , realignment of the compact wheel loader fork carriage improves forward visibility . Bucket capacities have been increased across the range .
New for this class size , an optional Cat 908 high-lift configuration is available . Available solid tires and the high lift configuration make the new 908 loader ideal for industrial and waste applications .
