AccuGrade Laser Grade Control System
Advanced laser technology simplifies grading, improves accuracy, increases productivity
and lowers operating costs.
Simple Operation.
The AccuGrade System consists of
4 basic components:
■ Laser Transmitter
1
■ Laser Receiver
■ Electric Mast
■ In-Cab Display
2
1 Laser Transmitter. An off-board laser
transmitter (sold separately) emits a
thin beam of light that rotates 360º,
3
creating a grade reference over
the work area. The transmitter is
mounted on a tripod so the laser
beam can rotate unobstructed above
the tractor.
2 Laser Receivers. A digital laser
receiver, mounted on a telescopic
mast above the blade’s cutting edge,
is used to detect the laser beam.
During grade set-up, with the cutting
edge placed at finish elevation, the
electric mast automatically positions
the laser receiver to within 1.5 mm
of the center of the laser beam.
As the blade moves above or below
finish grade elevation during the
grading process, correction informa-
tion is sent to the in-cab display.
One receiver is required for single
dimension control (lift) and two

Operator Station
The redesigned operator station is quieter and more spacious for a comfortable
work environment.
Redesigned Operator Station. Based on
the cab designs of the large Caterpillar
track-type tractors, the operator station
has been redesigned to be more
spacious. The new ergonomic layout
emphasizes simplicity, ease of use and
comfort. A new climate control system
(HVAC), increased leg room and
enhanced visibility allow the operator to
focus on the job. With 13% more tinted
glass area, the operator station provides
a clear view to the blade and the
surrounding work site.
