Caterpillar 826H

Caterpillar put the first 826 landfill compactor to work in 1978. Since then, customers like you have helped us improve the safety, reliability and productivity of this very popular machine. Our H Series model has enhanced visibility and comfort from a new ergonomic cab. Operators have greater line of sight to areas around the machine, and with CAES installed, the 826H has the ability to be more efficient, lowering your operating costs.

Benefits and Features of the Caterpillar 826H


   Back to all Benefits and Features Categories

Service Convenience
Designed with you in mind

In spite of its heavy duty guarding, Caterpillar has made servicing the 826H a design priority.
  • Engine and power train guards are hinged and electronically actuate for access underneath the machine.
  • The radiator guard and air inlet screens swing open for convenient cleaning.
  • Wide walkways with accompanying hand rails provide access to air filters, the AC Condenser and the top of the engine. The air filter includes a convenient air restriction sight gauge.
  • Tanks include fluid level sight gauges for daily checks. Locking service doors give access to oil level and fill, coolant sight gauge.
  • For overhauls or second life rebuilds, the cab can be removed quickly without hydraulic hoses to disconnect. Quick couplers connect AC hoses for convenience.
  • Optional swing out stairs on both sides of the machine provide unobstructed access to wheels and the engine compartment.
  • Important machine health information is provided by the messenger display inside the cab. In the event that something is out of spec, three levels of warning are given to the operator.
