Bought another Cat to go with my D73T and would like to know all the capacities and oil type. It is a D7E-48A550 cable with tilt blade 1962 model with turbo and 24 volt electric start.

Capacities and fluid type for power shift transmission, winch, finals, and lift pump. I will use 15-40 engine oil in engine. I have parts manual and shop but neither one has capacities.
Thank you for your assistance.

Rome, there is a arrow mark on all scanners indicating the top right corner you know.
but its easy to do and most of us couldn't be bothered to be that pedantic.

as for oils contact the tech advice line of your chosen oil company they can help you with that info. as any in the owners book for oil type is outdated and in many cases has been superseeded. nothing says you cant use modern high performance mineral oils in these old girls. most of them will actually give better protection. the capacities are all still relevant of course.

instead of perfection some times we just have to accept practicality

I would have had to fold the book in half, didnt want to do that, thought I could rotate pic after but couldnt.

Thank you Gary. Gary is the transmission the same oil as the engine? And the final drives 80-90 oil?

No, use 30W Transmission/Drivetrain Oil, Cat has a good oil for use with the steering clutches, dont know if any other brands match.

for you machine delo torqforce 30 and 50 are suitable for the trans and final drives respectively the oil clutch if fitted also takes 30 weight the torque force range has cat to-4 & to-4m approvals. can use torque force 10 in the hydraulics but in environment temps over 40 deg celcius must use engine oil or torqforce 30
delo gold 15w40 is suitable for the engine.(may have changed name)

the original delo oils were developed by standard oil co. for caterpillar. Diesel Engine Lubricating Oil
