Merchandising Arrangements.
The 793D is available in four different
normal altitude configurations, and a high
altitude arrangement. All configurations
deliver increased speed on grade and
include key components that are
performance matched to the hauling
application and site conditions.
Standard Arrangement.
The standard arrangement
is designed for exceptional, all-around
performance. Three factors combine
to produce up to 9% more power at
the wheels than the 793C, including:
5% more engine horsepower; a common
rail hydraulic system for greater power
train efficiency; and a hydraulically
driven demand fan that reduces parasitic
load by operating only when needed.
More power at the wheels reduces cycle
times and lowers cost-per-ton.
Extended Life Wheel Groups.
Developed for uphill
hauling applications, this
arrangement is designed to extend
wheel life and hauling performance on
long uphill hauls. Extended life wheel
groups are built with larger, more durable
components, including larger spindles,
wider wheel bearing spacing, a larger
braking surface, and extended life
friction disc material for longer brake
life and more time between overhauls.
Extra Top Speed. Developed
for long, flat haul applications,
the extra top speed configuration delivers
a 10% increase in maximum speed to
60 km/h (37 mph) via a new input transfer
gear group. This arrangement also
includes Extended Life Wheel Groups.
Supplemental Steering.
Supplemental steering system uses
pressure accumulators and allows
up to three 90 degree turns in case
of engine failure.
Wheels and Rims. Cast rear wheels
and Cat center-mount rims are mounted
using studs and nuts to minimize
maintenance and maximize durability.

Structures
Rugged Cat structures are the backbone of the 793D mining trucks durability.
Cylinders. Four independent selfcontained, oil pneumatic, variablerebound suspension cylinders are
designed to absorb shocks in the most
severe applications.
