This Caterpillar 140M VHP Plus is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or grading machine — a type of heavy construction equipment used primarily for fine grading, road building, and maintaining flat or sloped surfaces on civil construction and earthmoving projects. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy machinery, producing a broad range of construction, mining, and infrastructure equipment trusted across industries globally.
This 2009 machine is located in New South Wales, Australia, and is described by the seller as work ready. It has accumulated 14,700 hours of use and is fitted with a Cat C7 engine, a proprietary Caterpillar powerplant well regarded in the grader segment for reliability in demanding field conditions.
The motor grader is equipped with an air-conditioned ROPS cab, providing both operator comfort and rollover protection in accordance with safety requirements for this class of machine. The 14-foot moldboard gives the machine a substantial grading width suitable for road construction and maintenance work. Blade accumulators are fitted, which help cushion the blade against sudden ground impacts and protect the hydraulic circuit during grading passes.
Additional attachments included with this machine are a front push block and multi-shank rippers. The push block allows the grader to move bulk material or assist with earthmoving tasks, while the multi-shank rippers at the rear are used to break up compacted or hard ground prior to grading. The seller notes that tyres are in good condition. The listing price is $91,503, excluding GST.
