Discover why we choose the CAT D6R2 XL dozer and how we set them up for stick raking and rural earthworks.
The Cat D6R2 XL dozer brings with it a rich history of over 100 years of track-type tractor expertise. We choose the R model for its simplicity, productivity and reliability even in the most harsh environments. Many of our customers are working our machines is some of the most remote parts of the country, so having a tough, robust machine that is easy to work on is paramount. From rugged structures and integrated power train to operator comfort and ease of operation, the D6R2 is a world-class dozer for stick raking, scrub clearing and regrowth control work.
Fully built-up with attachments, the D6R2 weights less that 25T and measures under 3.5m wide. This allows us to transport the dozer on a drop-deck trailer and without the need for a pilot, reducing costs for our customers.
100% Australian made at our Toowoomba workshop, the FLAMSTEED 20ft Stick Rake has been designed with feedback from our customers to optimize its performance and efficiency in a wide range of conditions. We have optimized the mounting system for easy fitment and removal in the field, along with folding wings for easy transportation. Featuring Bissalloy tynes, optional sucker bar and compatible with multiple blade types, the FLAMSTEED Stick Rake is an industry leading attachment. When folded up, the rake is under 3.5m wide which allows for transportation without a pilot vehicle required.
The GESSNER blade mounted Tree Spear is our go to spear for the D6 Dozer. It's size, weight and reach pairs perfectly with the FLAMSTEED Stick Rake for the ultimate stick raking and land clearing solution. Its placement on the blade allows for use with or without the stick rake fitted, and allows for removal of the rake without removing the Spear. Stick raking with a tree spear allows the operator to push over larger trees before raking them up. This is both safer and more efficient.
All of our D6's are fitted with the CAT heavy duty sweeps group, including hinged door & window screens for ease of cleaning. The Caterpillar Forestry group protects all of the machines major panels and refill points.
