This Caterpillar 140M is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or a blade — a heavy construction machine designed to create flat, precisely graded surfaces for road building, site preparation, and earthworks. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, serving industries that include road construction, earthmoving, and infrastructure development across the globe. This example was built in 2008, is located in Texas, USA, and is offered at $144,000.
The machine is equipped with a 14-foot moldboard, the primary working blade used to distribute and level material across the road surface. Variable horsepower is fitted, a system that adjusts available engine output depending on the task being performed, allowing the machine to optimise fuel efficiency during lighter work while delivering full power when conditions demand it. A pushblock is also included, extending the machine's versatility for pushing material or working in close proximity to other equipment.
The operator's environment features joystick steering, which replaces conventional steering wheel controls with a joystick interface for more precise and responsive directional input. An AM/FM/CD radio and mirrors are present in the cab, and auxiliary lighting is installed to support operation in low-light conditions. An online owner's manual is available for this unit.
From a compliance standpoint, the machine carries an EPA label and a CE plate, along with an equipment certification code of NCR.
