(8) Tracks
Power from diesel engine (3) is sent through torque divider (7), main drive shaft (6), planetary transmission
(4), transfer and bevel gears (5), steering clutches and brakes (1), and final drives (2). Power then goes from
the final drives to tracks (8) .
Planetary transmission (4) has three FORWARD and three REVERSE speeds. The speed and direction of the
planetary transmission are electronically controlled by the power train ECM with inputs from the operator.
Power is directed to the transmission. Power is then directed to transfer and bevel gears (5).
Transfer and bevel gears (5) turn two inner axle shafts that send the power to steering clutches and brakes (1).
Steering clutches turn the machine. The brakes stop the machine and work with the steering clutches in
turning the machine. The steering clutches and the brakes are electronically controlled by the power train
ECM with inputs from the operator.
Power from the steering clutches and brakes is used to turn two sun gear shafts that turn final drives (2). The
final drives are single reduction planetary gear sets that send the power to the sprockets.

The power train electronic control system uses sensors in order to determine the input from the operator and
output from the components. Then, the signals from these sensors are used in order to control the machine.
The system displays information for the power train on the Advisor display panel for the operator.
Sensors detect the position of the controls and the state of the components. This information is sent to power
train ECM. The power train ECM sends current to the solenoid operated control valves. These valves respond
by regulating pressure to the transmission clutches and the service brakes. Information on gear selection,
warnings, service codes, and information from other machine systems are displayed. This information is
shown on the display for the Caterpillar Advisor.
The power train ECM determines the transmission clutch that will be engaged. This is determined by the
selected upshift/downshift switch and the position of the direction selector. The power train ECM then uses
the speed sensors to measure the machine response. The modulation of pressure for each clutch is controlled
in order to achieve continuous power. This provides the operator with a smooth shift.
For the service brakes, the power train ECM responds to signals from the position sensor in the service brake
pedal. As the operator depresses the brake pedal, the electronic control system quickly adjusts corresponding
brake pressures.

The Power Train Electronic Control System electronically performs three main functions for track-type
tractors.
• Transmission Shifting
• Braking
• Steering
The Power Train Electronic Control System also performs the following functions:
• Warning Function
For proper operation, the ECM must determine the sales model and the configuration of the power train of the
machine. The inputs of the harness code plug are left open or the inputs of the harness code plug are
grounded. The ECM interprets the status of the inputs to the harness code plug. The inputs of the harness

code plug are open or grounded. The ECM uses the inputs of the harness code plug in order to determine the
configuration of the machine.
