This technology can recognise attachments and tailor the controls and operator The new D3 Series loaders are equipped with an enclosed cab and have improved controls and drivelines, increasing travel speeds. The machines offer advanced attachment technology, which the firm claims will allow the D3 Series Cat SSL and CTL models to automatically recognise Smart Attachments and convert machine controls to align with the operational and informational needs of that attachment.
