This Caterpillar 140M2 AWD is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or a blade — a heavy construction machine used to create flat, precisely graded surfaces on roads, job sites, and earthworks projects. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, building machines that serve infrastructure, road building, mining, and earthmoving industries across the globe.
This 2013 machine is powered by a Caterpillar C9.3 VHP engine rated at 243 horsepower in Tier 4 configuration, paired with VHP Plus and ECO Mode functionality for variable horsepower output and fuel efficiency. All-wheel drive is fitted as standard, providing enhanced traction across the demanding terrain this machine is built for. Wet disc brakes are included, along with a differential lock and supplemental steering system. The drivetrain is further supported by a 150-amp alternator and an extreme-duty 1,400 CCA battery.
The blade is a 14-foot by 27-inch by 1-inch cutting edge, complemented by overlay end bits and a 2-foot right-hand blade extension. The machine carries a ripper group fitted with five shanks and a four-shank scarifier, making it capable of breaking up compacted or hardened surfaces before grading. A manual lift group is also included. The arrangement is configured for snow work, with a snow wing ready setup and a snow precleaner fitted. Tyres are 14-inch by 25-inch multi-piece wheels.
The cab is well equipped for operator comfort and all-weather operation. Climate features include air conditioning, a heater, front and rear defrosters with a rear fan and wiper/washer, a rear sun shade, and outside heated mirrors. The cold weather package includes a 120-volt engine coolant heater, a block heater, and ether starting aid. Seating is an air-suspension cloth seat, and the cab includes a headliner with dome light and floor mat. The instrument display is an LCD panel. Operator convenience features include throttle lock, grab irons, a travel alarm, and an SMV sign.
Lighting is comprehensive, with high-output front headlights, working lights in halogen, auxiliary lighting, and provision for a front-mounted warning light. A camera is fitted, and a CB communication converter is included. The radio is a 12-volt AM/FM weatherband unit. An Accugrade-ready harness is installed for future grade control integration. Additional structural features include an articulation guard, transmission guard, and a drawbar. The machine is offered with standard glass, an electric heavy-duty starter, and is located in Colorado, USA, priced at $175,000 in as-is, as-received condition.
