Environmental Responsibility
Help the environment, help your bottom line

8
Burning less fuel, extending the service life of components like filters, tires
or fluids, even using remanufactured parts, are all environmentally friendly.
They are also bottom line friendly, reducing your operating costs while
reducing the impact on our world.

Fuel Economy
The 777E fuel saving strategies find opportunities to reduce fuel burn and
fuel costs.
• Meets U.S. EPA Tier 2 Equivalent emission standards
• Certified for China Nonroad Stage III emission standards
• Economy Mode modifies engine maps to take advantage of steady grades
and level ground, reducing power and fuel burn
• Programmable top gear/speed to help operators maintain speed limits and
save fuel
• Speed Limiting automatically selects the most fuel efficient gear and speed
for the terrain instantaneously
• Engine Idle Shutdown identifies when the truck is in park and idles for more
than a preset time and initiates engine shutdown to conserve fuel

Component Life
• Engine Oil Service Interval increased to 500 hours
• Remanufactured parts are an economical and eco-friendly alternative to new
• Castings and box-section frame construction ensure long life
• Delayed Engine Shutdown prevents hot shutdowns that can reduce
component life

Fuel Economy Mode Switch

Performance
More power, better production

The 777E will haul your material faster and more efficiently with increases in torque, new transmission controls and higher
travel speeds.
• New transmission controls carry more torque through the shifts, producing faster cycle times, most noticeably on grades
• An increase in travel speed in 7th gear also helps generate faster cycle times

10
 Updated Cat C32 ACERT™
• Seven percent more usable torque improving performance and cycle times
• Cat MEUI™ injectors improve fuel efficiency and load response
• Excellent high-altitude capability
• The C32 ACERT is carefully balanced with vibration controls that reduce noise and protect against unnecessary
harmonics
• Ground level engine shutdown switch for safety

Transmission
The ECPC (Electronic Clutch Pressure Control) Transmission with controlled throttle shifting regulates engine speed,
torque converter lock-up and clutch engagement. The result is smoother shifts, reduced clutch wear and longer
component life.
• Downshift Inhibitor prevents engine over speeding by keeping the transmission from downshifting until engine
speed reaches the downshift point

Brakes
The front dry calipers with rear oil-cooled multiple disc brakes deliver reliable performance and control in the most
extreme haul-road conditions.

Automatic Retarder Control (ARC) (optional)

ARC controls braking on grade electronically, maintaining consistent engine speed, lower fuel burn, and better control.

Engine Over Speed Protection

Electronically senses engine conditions and automatically up-shifts one gear to prevent over speeding. If over
speeding occurs in the top gear, the lock-up clutch is disengaged, and the brakes are applied.

Traction Control System (TCS) (optional)

The Traction Control System controls rear wheel slip for greater traction and enhanced truck performance in poor
underfoot conditions. If slippage exceeds a set limit, rear wet brakes slow the spinning wheel and torque is
transferred to the tractive wheel for optimum control.

Structures
Reliability established over years of service

Structural Strength
The 777E frame uses a proven box-section design that resists damage from twisting loads without adding extra weight. Castings
have large radii with internal reinforcing ribs to dissipate stress and move welds to lower stress areas for longer frame life.
• Mild steel used throughout frame provides flexibility, durability and resistance to impact loads, even in cold climates, and allows
for easy field repairs
• The open design allows easy access to power train components, reducing removal and installation time, and lowering overall
repair costs
• The integral ROPS structure is designed as an extension of the truck frame, resiliently mounted to the main frame to reduce
vibration and sound

12
 11
Suspension
Designed to dissipate haul road and loading impacts for longer frame life and a more
22
comfortable ride.
• Front spindles and wheels are rigidly mounted to the cylinder rods for reliable operation
33
and long life
• Rear wheel spindles are solid steel for longer life, and the rear suspension cylinders have
been inverted to minimize contamination
– These rugged cylinders use large diameter bore and low pressure nitrogen/oil design
for long life with minimal maintenance 44

Steering
Cat integrated steering and suspension system is designed for
precise steering, excellent maneuverability, minimal tire wear
and superior ride control.
• The steering linkage is designed to provide good feedback
to the operator
• The Cat king pin front suspension system maintains steering
tolerances and tire alignment
• The steering system is separate from the main hydraulic
system to prevent cross-contamination and overheating
from other sources
• Main hydraulic steering system is backed by a battery
powered secondary steering system that allows up to three
90° turns in case of engine failure
– System automatically engages when needed

777E Retarding Performance (Tier 2 Equivalent)

To determine retarding performance: Add lengths of all downhill segments and, using this total, refer to proper retarding chart. Read from
gross weight down to the percent effective grade. Effective grade equals actual % grade minus 1% for each 10 kg/t (20 lb/ton) of rolling
resistance. From this weight-effective grade point, read horizontally to the curve with the highest obtainable gear, then down to maximum
descent speed brakes can properly handle without exceeding cooling capacity. The following charts are based on these conditions: 32° C
(90° F) ambient temperature, at sea level, with 27.00R49 (E4) tires.
NOTE: Select the proper gear to maintain engine rpm at the highest possible level, without overspeeding the engine. If cooling oil overheats,
reduce ground speed to allow transmission to shift to the next lower speed range.

777E Gradeability/Speed/Rimpull

To determine gradeability performance: Read from gross weight down to the percent of total resistance. Total resistance equals actual
percent grade plus 1% for each 10 kg/t (20 lb/ton) of rolling resistance. From this weight-resistance point, read horizontally to the curve with
the highest obtainable gear, then down to maximum speed. Usable rimpull will depend upon traction available and weight on drive wheels.
