Fixed Cab Riser. CAT designed and
built, 6’5” (1.95 m) manual tilt cab riser
provides for operating height with
excellent visibility for loading and
unloading processing equipment, trucks,
and rail cars. Access to the cab is
provided by a ladder leading up to the
platform extending around the cab riser.
This platform will allow for windshield
cleaning. The cab riser can be manually
tilted forward 90 degrees for shipping.

Cooling System. External debris filters
allow easy access for cleaning. This
prevents clogging from dirt and dust
coming into the cooling system. The
optional automatic reversing fan purges
dirt and dust from cooling system.
Hydraulic Cab Riser. Optional hydraulic
cab riser provides up to 8’6” (2.6 m) of
additional operating height. There is
easy access to the cab platform
provided by handrails attached to the
riser.
Operator Controls. The ability to
modulate the grapple open-close
function is also provided on the right
side joystick. The rotate function is
modulated by using a slider switch
mounted on the joystick.
Generator Set. An optional 20 kW
generator set can power magnets up to
66” (1.68 m) in diameter.

Built for power, reliability, economy, and lower emissions.

ADEM™ A4 Engine Controller .

ADEM™ A4 electronic control module
manages fuel delivery to get best
performance per liter of fuel used. The
engine management system provides
flexible fuel mapping, allowing the
engine to respond quickly to varying
application needs. It tracks engine and
machine conditions while keeping the
engine operating at peak efficiency.
Electronic Control Module. The
Electronic Control Module (ECM)
works as the “brain” of the engine’s
control system, responding quickly to
operating variables to maximum engine
efficiency. Fully integrated with
sensors in the engine’s fuel, air, coolant,
and exhaust systems, the ECM stores
and relays information on conditions
such as RPM, fuel consumption, and
diagnostic information.
Fuel Delivery. The CAT® C7 features
electronic controls that govern the fuel
injection system. Multiple injection
fuel delivery involves a high degree of
precision.
Air Cleaner. The radial seal air filter
features a double-layered filter core for
more efficient filtration and is located in
a compartment behind the cab. A

Work Tools - Attachments
A variety of grapples and magnets are available to maximize machine performance in
material handling applications.
Work Tool Selection. When choosing a
work tool, please consider the work tool
application, the variation of the density
of material to be handled and
productivity requirements. Check with
your CAT® dealer for more details on
specifications, sizes, and other work
tool types.

Walker Magnets. The Walker 57” (1.45
m) or 66” (1.68 m) Lift Master magnets
can be used with the 325D MH. These
magnets have been designed and
engineered for scrap processing
applications. Ask your dealer
salesperson for information on the
Walker Magnet.
Orange Peel Grapples. The .75 yd3 and
the 1.25 yd3 Orange Peel Grapples are
available attachments.
Serviceability and Complete Customer Support
Simplified service and maintenance features save you time and money. Your CAT® dealer
offers a wide range of services that can be set up under a customer support agreement when
you purchase your equipment.
Ground Level Service. The design and
layout of the 325D MH was made with
the service technician in mind. Many
service locations are easily accessible at
ground level allowing critical
maintenance to get done quickly and
efficiently.
Pump Compartment. A service door on
the right side of the upper structure
allows ground-level access to the pump
and pilot filter.
Radiator Compartment. The left rear
service door allows easy access to the
engine radiator, oil cooler and air-to-air-
after-cooler. A reserve tank and drain
cock are attached to the radiator for
simplified maintenance.
Air Filter Compartment. The air filter
features a double-element construction
for superior cleaning efficiency. When
the air cleaner plugs, a warning is
displayed on the monitor screen inside
the cab.
Capsule Filter. The hydraulic return
filter, a capsule filter, is situated outside
the hydraulic tank. This filter prevents
contaminants from entering the system
when hydraulic oil is changed and
keeps the operation clean.

* Indicates that the load is limited by hydraulic capacity rather than tipping capacity. Lift capacity ratings are based on SAE J2518 standard. Rated loads do not
exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity or 75% of tipping capacity.
All lifts are with heavy lift on. Always refer to the appropriate Operation and Maintenance Manual for specific product information.
