NOTES
Nomenclature Change: During the fourth quarter of 2008, the 325D and 330D
nomenclature changed The 325D became the 329D and the 330D became the 336D for most arrangements.
The exceptions are as follows:
- The nomenclature for the 325D MH and 330D MH did not change.
- The nomenclature for the 325D FM and 330D FM did not change.
- The 325D HD HW did not change into 329D HD HW This model is being discontinued However, the 330D HD HW changed to the 336D HD HW.
Trang 5The Caterpillar 320D-336D range of Hydraulic Excavators incorporate design innovations andperformance improvements from the 300C Hydraulic Excavator Series and are a direct
replacement for them
The range comprises of: 320D, 321D, 323D, 324D, 325D, 328D, & 330D, with some modelshaving various additional machine arrangements During the fourth quarter of of 2008, the329D replaced the 325D and the 336D replaced the 330D for most arrangements
The machines feature a new cab for greater operator comfort The cab provides the operatorwith excellent visibility of processing equipment, trucks, and railcars The cab, consoles, andjoysticks have been improved to provide a better access and understanding of all functions
This presentation discusses the systems operation of the 320D-336D Hydraulic Excavators,along with basic engine and machine component location
NOTE: Most of the illustrations of the iron in this presentation will be of the 325D and
330D excavators The other models will be configured similarly, but component
locations may be different Some of the illustrations may show pilot iron instead of
production iron
The most significant differences will be related to the engine compartment due to the three different engines being used in this series of machines as well as two of the models being compact radius (CR).
