Sound Levels
Note (2) Hearing protection may be needed when operating with an open operator station and cab (when not properly maintained or doors/windows open) for extended periods or in noisy environments.
Optimal Loader/Truck Pass Matching
Note An optimum system match gives you a major productivity advantage. The 740 GC is an excellent match for the Cat 374F and 352F Hydraulic Excavators; and Cat 972M, 966M, and 962M Wheel Loaders. Having matched loading and hauling tools results in increased production and lower system costs per unit of volume moved.
Body Plate Thickness
Base Plate 13 mm (0.51 in)
Optimal Loader/Truck Pass Matching
Wheel Loader: 972M - Passes 3
Wheel Loader: 962M - Passes 5
Body Plate Thickness
Front Plate 7 mm (0.28 in)
Engine
Note (4) Net power when the fan is at maximum speed is 327 kW (439 hp) per the SAE reference conditions.
Note (2) The power ratings apply at rated speed of 1,700 rpm when tested under the conditions for the specified standard.
Note (3) The net power advertised is the power available at the flywheel when the engine is equipped with alternator, air cleaner, muffler and fan at minimum speed.
Sound Levels
Note (1) The operator sound exposure Leq (equivalent sound pressure level) measured according to the work cycle procedures specified in ANSI/SAE J1166 OCT98 is 72 dB(A), for the cab offered by Caterpillar, when properly installed and maintained and tested with the doors and windows closed.
Optimal Loader/Truck Pass Matching
Wheel Loader: 966M - Passes 4u20135
Hydraulic Excavator: 374F - Passes 3u20134
Hydraulic Excavator: 352F - Passes 5u20136
