• The power ratings apply at an engine speed of 1,700 rpm when tested
under the conditions for the specified standard in effect at the time of
manufacture.
• The net power advertised is the power available at the flywheel when
the engine is equipped with alternator, air cleaner, muffler and fan at
minimum speed.
• Net power when the fan is at maximum speed is 348 kW (467 hp) per
the SAE reference conditions.
• The 740 EJ meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission
standards.
• DEF used in Cat SCR systems must meet the requirements outlined
in ISO 22241-1:2006. ISO 22241-1:2006 requirements are met by
many brands of DEF, including those that carry the AdBlue or API
certifications.

Sound Levels
Interior Cab72 dB(A)
• The declared dynamic operator sound pressure level is 72 dB(A) when
ISO 6396:2008 is used to measure the value for an enclosed cab. The
measurement was conducted at 70% of the maximum cooling fan’s
speed. The sound level may vary at different cooling fan speeds. The
measurement was conducted with the cab doors and the cab windows
closed. The cab was properly installed and maintained.
• Hearing protection may be needed when operating with an open
operator station and cab or when not properly maintained or doors/
windows open for extended periods or in noisy environments.
Air Conditioning System
• The air conditioning system on this machine contains the fluorinated
greenhouse gas refrigerant R134a (Global Warming Potential =
1430). The system contains 1.2 kg of refrigerant which has a CO2
equivalent of 1.716 metric tonnes.

RIMPULL
Gradeability/Speed/Rimpull
To determine performance, read from Gross Weight down to % Total Resistance. Total Resistance equals actual % grade plus 1% for each 10 kg/
metric ton (20 lb/ton) of Rolling Resistance. From this point, read horizontally to the curve with the highest attainable speed range. Then, go down to
Maximum Speed. Usable Rimpull depends on traction available.
To determine performance, read from Gross Weight down to % Effective Grade. Effective Grade equals actual % favorable grade plus 1% for each 10
kg/metric ton (20 lb/ton) of Rolling Resistance. From this point, read horizontally to the curve with the highest attainable speed range. Then, go down
to Maximum Speed. Retarding effect on these curves represents full application of the retarder.
