Technical Training

Caterpillar service training courses provide theory and hands-on training for current paving equipment including:

• Cat Pavers
• Cat Cold Planers
• Cat Reclaimers, and
• Cat Asphalt and Soil Compactors

Upon completion of this course, attendees should be able to:

• Trace the flow of oil through the hydraulic system
• Test and adjust all hydraulic pressures
• Troubleshoot hydraulic and electrical systems
• Explain ECM functions and calibration steps
• Set up and adjust grade and slope control (pavers and cold planers)

Classes are kept small in size to offer more hands-on opportunities and time for direct instructor interaction. Each course is approximately 50/50 classroom and hands-on training. Written and hands-on examinations after each major system ensure course objectives are met throughout the four-day session.
