About this machine

This Caterpillar 627G is a motor scraper — also known as a self-loading scraper — a heavy earthmoving machine used to cut, load, haul, and deposit large volumes of soil and material across construction, grading, and land-forming sites. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with a long-established reputation for building durable, high-performance machines used across earthmoving, road building, and infrastructure development.

This is a one-owner machine from 2005, currently located in Texas, USA, and showing 15,271 total hours. It is equipped with an enclosed, rollover-protective operator station with air conditioning (EROPS/Air), providing a controlled working environment. The scraper features hydraulic retarders and a push-pull configuration, which enables tandem operation with another scraper unit for self-loading efficiency. Side boards and a spill guard are fitted to the bowl, helping to retain material loads during haul cycles.

Drive train and underside protection is provided by a transmission guard and power train guards. The tyres are Bridgestone VLT 33.25×29, reported at approximately 40% remaining tread. The hitch is described as very good, rated at around 75% condition. The machine has a documented service history of oil sampling with results described as very good, and has been maintained on a 250-hour service interval throughout its working life. Fuel consumption on the C15 engine has averaged 4.56 gallons per hour.

Prior to the listing, the machine underwent an extensive reconditioning programme. The front engine received new batteries, a new starter, a new alternator, and a new ignition switch, with zero hours on those components. The main and rod bearings were rolled new, and a new oil pan and gasket were installed. The operator's seat was rebuilt and the cab detailed. Hydraulic work included resealing the ejector cylinder and bowl lift cylinders, and hydraulic hoses were replaced as required. Mechanical work covered replacement of the horizontal pin and bearing, replacement of the apron trunnions, build-up of the router bit areas, repair of the air system, and reconditioning of the brakes. The machine is described as ready for immediate work.
