This Caterpillar 12E is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or grading machine — a type of heavy construction equipment designed to create flat, precisely graded surfaces for road building, site preparation, and maintenance of unpaved roads. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy machinery, with a long history of building equipment for construction, mining, and infrastructure industries worldwide.
This machine is located in Davenport, Iowa, USA, and is available on an FOB basis from that location. The hours are unknown, so buyers should plan for an inspection to assess overall wear and usage. It is equipped with a scarifier, which is a toothed attachment typically mounted at the front or rear of the grader used to break up compacted material before regrading. The unit features direct start and power steering, adding convenience during operation.
Two noted mechanical conditions should be factored into any purchasing decision. The machine currently has no brakes, which will require repair before the unit can be safely operated. Additionally, the power steering filter housing is reported to need a gasket, a relatively minor but necessary fix. Prospective buyers should account for these items when evaluating the machine against its listed price of $10,900.
