About this machine
This Caterpillar 12M3 is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or grading machine — built for precision earthmoving, road construction, and surface finishing work. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and earthmoving equipment, serving industries including road building, mining, agriculture, and civil infrastructure. This example was manufactured in 2016 and is currently located in Nebraska, USA, listed at $115,000.
The machine is equipped with a 14-foot blade measuring 14' x 27" x 1", with overlay end bits and blade tilt capability at the same dimension. The cutting edge is configured for standard road and grading applications, and the circle clutch provides controlled rotation of the moldboard. A front hitch and lift group is fitted, along with a snow wing frame-ready mount, making this grader well suited to winter road maintenance work in addition to standard grading duties.
Cold-weather readiness is a clear focus of this machine's specification. The cold weather plus package includes a 50/50 coolant rated to -35°C (-31°F), a 120V engine coolant heater, and an extreme-duty electric starter. Outside heated mirrors running on 24V, a defroster fan, and a Sy-Klone pre-cleaner further prepare the machine for demanding low-temperature and dusty operating environments. The low ambient global arrangement and additional ripper lines (Base + 2 with ripper configuration) add further versatility.
Driver comfort and visibility are well catered for. The operator sits in an air ride seat fitted with a seat belt and indicator. Lighting provision is extensive, comprising high-output front headlights, service lights, working lights plus, and auxiliary lighting, along with a warning light on the front lift mount. A camera is also installed. An AM/FM radio, throttle lock, and online owner's manual access round out the cab specification.
Further features include auto shift transmission, a differential lock, a towing hitch, ether aid for cold starts, an articulation guard, and a front hitch with warning light mounting. The machine carries English (U.S.) decals and documentation, and its equipment certification code is NCR. Overall, this is a comprehensively optioned motor grader configured particularly well for snow and cold-weather road maintenance operations.
