This 2014 Caterpillar 140M2 is a used motor grader — sometimes called a road grader or grading machine — a heavy construction machine designed to create flat, precisely graded surfaces for road building, site preparation, and maintenance of unpaved roads. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with a long-established reputation for building durable machines used across earthmoving, infrastructure, road construction, and resource extraction industries globally.
Power comes from a Cat C9.3 engine rated at 196 horsepower and certified to Tier 4 Interim emissions standards, supported by a 150-amp alternator and a 24-volt electrical system with a heavy-duty electric starter. The machine is equipped with a 14-foot blade, with the blade tilt specified at 14 feet by 24 inches by 7/8 inch, and standard end bits fitted to the cutting edges. A rear-mounted ripper is included — listed as Base and 1 ripper configuration — with additional ripper lines and shanks and teeth for the scarifier also provided, making this unit well suited to breaking up compacted or hardened ground before grading.
Lighting is comprehensive, with front headlights, heel work lights in a 3x3 arrangement, midframe toe work lights in a 3x3 arrangement, and additional working halogen lights, all switchable via a dedicated work lighting switch. A warning light mounting is also fitted. Outside heated mirrors are included for improved visibility in varied conditions.
The cab is configured for operator comfort and cold-weather operation. The Cold Weather Package is fitted, which includes a 120-volt engine coolant heater and a snow precleaner. The rear window features a defroster fan, a rear wiper and washer, and a rear sun shade. The operator seat is an air-ride unit upholstered in cloth, and the cab is finished with the Comfort Package and standard glass. A 12-volt AM/FM weatherband radio is installed, along with a CB communication converter.
Additional equipment and features include a box frame installation, a transmission guard, a hitch guard group, a spare rim sized 10 inches by 24 inches MP, a low ambient global arrangement, auxiliary lighting, and a manual lift group. An online owner's manual is noted. The machine is offered on an as-is, as-received basis with an equipment certification code of NCR, and is currently located in Texas, USA, listed at $235,000.
