Crawler
Tractors
For contractors, loggers, farmers and others, a Cater
r*** pillar-built crawler tractor will outwork any other equip
ment intended for similar work. They will stay on the job
longer and give a full day’s work every day. Caterpillar Diesel
Tractors will operate with a minimum of down-time, and
require no coddling regardless of weather, terrain or soil con
ditions. All "Cat”-built tractors are built to stand the stresses
and strains of hard use. Five models from which to choose.
PRECO
Back
Rippers
%
Preco Back-Rippers make every dozing operation easier.
‘ They break up the ground as your Caterpillar tractor
backs up, permitting the dozer blade to make a full load on
each forward trip. The four hinged teeth pull out roots and
rocks and rip the ground for easier blading. You can save time
and money by using Preco Back-Rippers in building pioneer
roads, clearing land and rights-of-way, for mining, logging
operations and a multitude of other uses.

WITTE
Diesel Engine
i Generator Units
For installations where
‘ dependable, 24-hour-a
day operation is required, use a Witte engine or a Witte engine
generator unit. They will provide reliable, low-cost power, are
completely weatherproof, and can be operated out-of-doors,
without protection, except under extreme cold or wet-weather
conditions. Both are compact, require minimum maintenance,
and operate on low-cost diesel fuel. There are many generator
unit models for either direct or alternating current, and Witte
diesel engines from 4 to 12.5 horsepower.
