Technical Description
The Case 885B motor grader is a robust, all-wheel-drive machine designed for heavy-duty grading applications. It features an overall length of 28 ft, a wheelbase of 20.5 ft, and a width over tires of 8.7 ft, with a height to the top of the Isomount cab at 10.4 ft. Powered by a 6-cylinder, inline, turbocharged, water-cooled engine (F4HE9687K, 409 cu in displacement), it delivers a maximum gross power of 234 hp at 2200 rpm and peak torque of 725.8 lb-ft at 1500–1600 rpm. The transmission offers 8 forward and 4 reverse gears, with a top forward speed of 27.9 mph. The hydraulic system uses a closed-center, load-sensing, variable displacement piston pump, providing a rated flow of 49.2 gpm. The moldboard is 14 ft long, 23.7 in high, and 0.9 in thick, with a blade down pressure of 21,473 lbs, side shift of 27 in right and 21 in left, and a pitch range from 42° to 87°. The machine has a maximum operating weight of 39,771 lbs and is equipped with 24 in (610 mm) tires. Articulation is 25° left/right, and the circle turn rotation is 360° at 1.2 RPM. The integrated supplemental steering and front-mounted scarifier (46 in width, 5 teeth, optional 11) enhance maneuverability and versatility. This motor grader is engineered for precision, durability, and efficient performance in demanding construction environments.
