2018 - Caterpillar 140M3 AWD Motor Grader

About this machine

This Caterpillar 140M3 AWD is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or blade — a heavy construction machine purpose-built for grading, levelling, and fine-finishing road surfaces, earthworks, and large flat areas. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised manufacturers of heavy equipment, supplying construction, mining, and infrastructure industries with machinery known for its durability and global support network. This example was built in 2018, carries Cat Certified Used status, and is currently located in New Mexico, USA, listed at $393,720.

Power comes from a C9 engine paired with a 150-amp alternator and an extra-heavy-duty battery, with an electric extreme-duty starter and an ether starting aid fitted to support reliable cold-weather starting. The machine is equipped with Caterpillar's Cold Weather Plus Package including AWD, complemented by cold-start provisions covering transmission oil and brakes, 50/50 coolant rated to -35 °C (-31 °F), 0W cold hydraulic oil, and an engine coolant heater running on 120V. A gravity drain for engine oil further supports cold-climate servicing routines. The low ambient global arrangement confirms this machine was configured specifically for operation in demanding cold conditions.

The blade is a 14-foot by 27-inch by 1-inch moldboard with an 8-inch by 3/4-inch curved cutting edge, specified without overlay end bits. The machine features Grade Control X Slope technology, providing automated blade slope assistance to improve grading accuracy and productivity. Auto Articulation is also fitted, and an articulation guard protects the pivot joint. A front-mounted lift group and a counterweight push plate are included in the configuration.

A Sy-Klone precleaner protects the air intake, and a transmission guard provides additional mechanical protection. The operator environment features an air-suspended, cloth, heated seat with a seat belt, heated outside mirrors running on 24V, a sun shade, and a rear window defroster fan. A rear wiper and washer are fitted as standard, and the cab is equipped with standard glass. An online owner's manual is available, and all decals and the language setting are in English (U.S.).

Lighting is comprehensive: front high-beam halogen headlights, fold-down arm lights, heel work lights in a 3×3 configuration, midframe toe work lights, and a Halogen Working Lights Plus package combine with auxiliary lighting to provide broad site illumination. A warning light mounting and a dedicated work lighting switch are also included. Visibility is further supported by a rear-facing camera.

Additional equipment includes a CB communication converter, a ripper/scarifier attachment noted as part of the Base+2 configuration with front ripper mounting, a SY-KLONE precleaner, and an ether starting aid. The equipment certification code is NCR. This motor grader presents as a well-specified, cold-climate-ready machine with a strong auxiliary and comfort package.
