This Caterpillar 140M3 is a used motor grader — sometimes called a road grader or a grader — a heavy construction machine designed to create and maintain flat or precisely graded surfaces on roads, highways, and work sites. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, supplying machinery to infrastructure, earthmoving, and resource extraction industries globally. This 2015 machine is located in Wyoming, USA, and is listed at $162,000.
The unit was built to a specification that includes a number of cold-climate and heavy-duty options, making it well suited to demanding northern or high-altitude operating environments. The cold weather plus package is fitted, supported by a 50/50 coolant rated to -35°C (-31°F), a 120V engine coolant heater, and a 24V heated outside mirror arrangement, all of which ease cold starts and maintain operability in freezing conditions. An extreme-duty electric starter is also fitted, further reinforcing the machine's readiness for low-temperature operation. The overall configuration is described as a low ambient global arrangement.
The machine was ordered to a BASE + 5 specification incorporating options coded WM, WT, DA1, FL, and RIP. A rear ripper/scarifier is included, allowing the grader to break up compacted or frozen ground surfaces prior to regrading. An articulation guard and a transmission guard are fitted, offering protection to critical drivetrain components. Front fenders are installed in a non-AWD configuration, and a front mounting lift group is present.
Lighting is comprehensively specified: high-intensity front headlights, halogen working lights in a plus configuration, and internal service lights are all fitted. An auxiliary lighting provision is also noted. A camera is installed, aiding visibility and reversing safety. A SY-KLONE precleaner is fitted to the air intake system, extending filter life and protecting the engine in dusty conditions. A warning light mounting arrangement is included.
The cab is equipped with a seat belt and the machine carries English (U.S.) decals and an English-language owner's manual. The snow arrangement option indicates the machine is configured for winter road maintenance work. The equipment certification code is listed as NCR.
