Dressta introduces M-Series crawler dozers

Dressta North America announces the introduction of four new crawler dozer models - TD-7M, TD-8M, TD-9M, and TD-10M - featuring improved levels of power, serviceability, reliability, comfort and operator control. Dressta's M-series dozers are designed to be easily controlled, no matter the skill level of the operator. The machines feature a left-hand joystick control, a right foot pedal for engine deceleration and a left pedal for braking. Additionally, Dressta has designed its M-series dozers with a power train that combines a torque converter or direct drive system, perfect for applications such as fire control with clutch-brake steering.

For many applications, this power train provides good shock absorption, minimizes engine lugging, and allows operators excellent control over machine power. The M-series dozers are also designed so that, even with blades attached, the overall machine size remains within the 8'6" width limit for legal transportation.

Other M-Series features include:
- Increased engine power;
- Larger displacement Cummins engine;
- Low engine sound and vibration levels;
- Side-by-side modular cooling components for better efficiency and easy maintenance;
- Fine control steering; combination single-lever steering and transmission control;
- Caliper disc-type steering clutches and brakes, spring applied and hydraulically released;
- Long track and low ground pressure models available;
- 6-roller undercarriage on all units except TD-7M Standard;
- Improved blade control with T-lever;
- Direct drive power train available.
