The D5K2 is a small crawler dozer from Caterpillar, used for grading, site cleanup and general earthmoving on mid-sized jobs. This version is built to Tier 4 Final and Stage IV emission requirements, and Caterpillar offers it in several blade and undercarriage configurations.
Caterpillar's listing gives a net power of 104 hp (77.6 kW) for this version and an operating weight of 20,313 lb (9,214 kg) in the XL configuration. Caterpillar's older D5 variants, such as the D5C Series III and D5G, are listed with lower power and lighter weights, so model year and emission tier matter when comparing machines.
Check the blade type, the undercarriage (standard, XL or LGP) and the operator-station options before comparing weight or ground pressure, since each changes the figures.
