SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
The most significant change to the 824H, 825H, and 826H is the engine. The engine is
changing from the Caterpillar 3406E to the Caterpillar C15 ACERT.
The diagnostic lines group is standard on the 824H, 825H, and 826H. The diagnostics line
group provides remote pressure taps for testing the power train hydraulic system.
The Automatic Blade Positioning (ABP) is now standard on the 824H and 826H. ABP is a
systems that adjusts the blade to set points as the machine is shifted between forward and
reverse.
The cooling package is changed on the 824H, 825H, and 826H. The 824G Series II, 825G
Series II, and 826G Series II are equipped with the Advanced Modular Cooling System
(AMOCS). The 824H, 825H, and 826H are equipped with the Next Generation Modular
Radiator (NGMR) cores.

ENGINE
The 824H, 825H, and 826H are equipped with the Caterpillar C15 ACERT engine, serial
number prefix LHX. The displacement of the C15 ACERT engine is 15.2 liters with a rated
power of 349 hp at 1800 rpm. The performance test specification for the C15 ACERT engine in
the 824H, 825H, and 826H is 0K5275.
The C15 ACERT engine is equipped with a larger muffler (1) and an A4E4 Engine Electronic
Control Module (ECM) (not shown).
The C15 ACERT engine is equipped with a wastegated turbocharger (2). The turbocharger is
cooled with engine coolant. The engine oil filter (3) is also shown.

AUTOMATIC BLADE POSITIONING (ABP) SYSTEM
ABP is standard equipment on the 824H and 826H. ABP is a system that automates much of
the repetitive work of positioning the blade on the machine. ABP uses the cylinder position
sensor (arrow) of the kickout system and the transmission directional switch to determine the
blade position. Once the blade heights are set by the operator, ABP will position the blade to
those determined heights without the operator moving the joystick.
When the operator selects REVERSE, the blade is automatically positioned to the raise height
that was set by the operator. The operation of the system is the same when the operator selects
FORWARD with the transmission direction switch.
The calibration of the cylinder position sensor follows the lift linkage strategy. The cylinder
position cylinder can be calibrated with Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) or with the
4C8195 service tool and Caterpillar Monitoring System (CMS).
