This Caterpillar 140 AWD is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or blade — a heavy construction machine designed to create flat, precisely graded surfaces for road building, site preparation, and maintenance work. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with a long-standing reputation across earthmoving, infrastructure, and resource industries.
This 2023 machine is located in California, USA, and is offered at $410,000. It is equipped with all-wheel drive, giving it enhanced traction and pushing power across soft, loose, or uneven ground conditions. The emissions configuration meets EPA Tier 4 Final and Japan Step 4 Final standards, confirming compliance with current clean-air regulations in both North American and Japanese markets. The machine runs on ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel as required by those emissions standards.
The 14-foot moldboard is the primary working tool, used for cutting, spreading, and levelling material across the full working width. A pushblock is fitted at the front for pushing material or obstacles, and a multi-shank ripper is mounted at the rear for breaking up compacted ground or bound surfaces before grading. The operator controls steering via a joystick system, and a throttle lock allows engine speed to be held steady during sustained passes. Supplemental steering provides a backup steering capability for safety.
The enclosed ROPS cab protects the operator against rollover and provides a controlled working environment. Inside, a defroster fan assists visibility in cold or humid conditions, and Bluetooth radio is included for communication or audio. Ether aid is present to assist cold-weather starting. Auxiliary lighting extends the machine's capability in low-light conditions.
Additional features include a circle clutch for controlled engagement of the blade circle drive, a differential lock for improved traction when conditions demand it, cross slope functionality for automated blade angle management on cambered or sloped surfaces, transmission guard protection, and mirrors for site awareness. Tire size information is noted as available within the listing data.
