Why “CATERPILLAR”
DIESEL UPKEEP IS
LESS
Mention almost any of tße advantages of “Cater
pillar” Diesel construction and yqu have cited a reason
for its low upkeep costs.
• ! / .
. “Caterpillar” quality, materials and workman
ship, of course, are the background for its low
upkeep. No cost is spared to thake the parts of
this Diesel engine perfect.
\ •<
*
The simplicity of its coftdtructipn is "another
reason for low upkeep costs. The freedom from
small parts and delicate adjuMn^entsmeans sturdy
performance and freedom from repair, bills. All
parts are standardized and Stways available, when
necessary, at reasonable cost., \
The flexibility and-pe^er ol'Qie ^Caterpillar”
adds years to its life/ The ability
pull heavy
loads at low engine speeds saves strain, wear and
breakage
“Caterpillar” construction is dustproof, heat
proof and equipped with oil filters, thus insuring
its parts against wear from foreign matterand heat.
These are only a part of the long list of mechani
cal features that save upkeep cost and insure the
“Caterpillar” Diesel of longer life and smooth* r per
formance.
