Gradeability and Machine Control
The exclusive dual pump propel system
provides a separate balanced hydraulic
flow to both the rear drive axle and the
front drum drive motor. This unique
dual pump propel system provides good
grade climbing, machine control and
tractive power. Dual pumps also
minimize drum and wheel spin-out in
low traction conditions. High working
speeds increases productivity. pg. 6
Operator’s Station
The CS54, CP54 and CS54 XT Soil
Compactors feature excellent operator
comfort and visibility. A propel lever
wrist rest, grouped control gauges and
conveniently located control switches
enhance operator productivity and
reduce fatigue. Four heavy-duty
isolation mounts provide a smooth ride.
Standard rearview mirrors, two frontfacing and two rear-facing working
lights are provided. Machines with the
open ROPS/FOPS platform are
surrounded by handrails that feature
integrated angled foot rests for sure
footing when working on a grade. pg. 7
Versatility
Standard dual amplitude expands the
compactor’s application range. The
large spread between high and low
centrifugal force makes it easier to
tailor the compactive effort to density
specifications. Variable vibration
frequency option is now available. pg. 4
The optional padfoot shell kit makes the
CS54 an extremely adaptable machine
when compacting semi-cohesive or
cohesive materials. pg. 8
Serviceability
The fiberglass hood tilts forward to
allow access to the engine and daily
maintenance points. Daily check points
are accessible from ground level. The
rear mounted cooling system features a
hydraulic oil cooler that tilts down for
easier access for cleaning. The
operator’s platform tilts forward to
provide convenient access to the
hydraulic components. Access panels
have been added to the steel portion of
the engine hood for greater
accessability. Vibratory bearing lube
service interval of 3 year/3000 hours
and no required oil sampling keeps
maintenance to a minimum and
maximizes production. The engine
lubrication change interval is 500 hours.
The articulation hitch area features
sealed-for-life bearings that effectively
eliminate the need for maintenance.
Hydraulic system oil change interval is
now 2 years/2000 hours. pg. 9
Performance and reliability you can depend on.
Durable, field-proven powertrain and vibratory
systems and the world’s largest and most dedicated
dealer support system ensure the CS54, CP54 and
CS54 XT Soil Compactors will provide maximum
utilization.
Comfort and serviceability you deserve.
The operator’s station provides a spacious and comfortable
work environment that allows simple and pr oductive operation.
Good service access and long service intervals minimize
maintenance time and increases pr oductive work time.

Vibratory System
The pod-style vibratory system, proven reliable on previous soil compactors, delivers
superior compactive force while offering serviceability advantages.
Pod-style weight housings. They are assembled
and sealed at the factory to ensure cleanliness, longer
bearing life and easier field exchange or service.
Dual amplitude. Dual amplitude works efficiently in
a wider range of applications. High or low amplitude
is selected from the operator’s station.
Heavy-duty bearings. Large heavy-duty bearings
for the eccentric weight shaft designed for high
compactive forces.
Variable frequency option. Variable vibratory
frequency increases machine versatility.
Service interval. 3 year/3000 hour vibratory bearing
lube service interval for reduced maintenance.
Scheduled oil sampling is no longer required,
reducing maintenance costs and increasing machine
uptime.
Isolation mounts. Improved isolation mounts allow
more force to be transmitted to the ground and less
vibration to the drum yoke.
1 Pod-style Weight Housings
2 Patented Eccentric Weights
3 Heavy-duty Bearings
4 Isolation Mounts
Patented Eccentric Weights
Reliable dual amplitude selection and innovative design ensure precise performance.
Amplitude selection. Positive amplitude selection
is accomplished when the steel shot is repositioned
inside the hollow eccentric weight. Direction of
weight shaft rotation determines amplitude level.
High reliability. High reliability since there is no
chance of the high-strength spherical steel shot
wedging together. System reliability is superior to
swinging mechanical weights and is also quieter
during starts and stops.
Simplified control. Simplified control from
the operator’s station with a selection switch on
the operator’s console.
Longer service life. No heavy weights to slam
together, no metal fragments to contaminate
the bearing lubrication system.

control standards.
Dual Pump Propel System
Superior tractive effort and gradeability for outstanding productivity in demanding
applications.
Dual propel pumps. Dual propel pumps provide
separate, balanced hydraulic flow to the rear wheel
axle and the drum drive motors. Provides superior
gradeability on steep slopes and increases tractive
effort in loose or poor underfoot conditions.
Limited slip differential. It provides balanced
tractive effort and smooth torque transfer to both
rear wheels.
Speed ranges. Two speed ranges for versatile
operation. Low speed range for vibratory operation
and maximum torque when climbing grades.
High speed range moves machine quickly over
longer distances.
Valves. Flushing valves in each propel circuit helps
keep hydraulic oil cool and clean for maximum
system efficiency.

Gradeability and Machine Control
The exclusive dual pump propel system provides superior performance, machine control and
exceptional grade climbing capability.
6
Propel pump system. The dual propel pump system has
dedicated pumps to independently drive the heavy-duty,
high-torque rear wheel and drum motors. Should the drum
or wheels begin to spin, the non-spinning motor still
receives hydraulic flow, allowing continuous tractive
effort especially useful in loose underfoot conditions.
Controllability. Controllability gives the operator
complete machine control to stop, maintain machine
position and change directions while on a slope,
especially useful on loose underfoot conditions.
High productivity. Optimum gradeability allows high
productivity. Designed for typical applications working
on level to moderate grades.
Rear Visibility
The sloped fiberglass hood design provides exceptional operator visibility and good service
access.
Visibility. The line of sight to the tire edges and rear of
machine is exceptional. Operator can see obstacles
measuring 1 meter high located 1 meter to the rear of the
machine. Excellent visibility increases productivity when
working near obstructions or maneuvering around the job
site.
Lockable engine hood. The one-piece lockable engine
hood opens quickly and easily with the use of gas struts,
providing good access to the engine, cooling system, and
all service points.
Sound levels. Low sound levels due to hood design and
cooling air flow through the rear mounted radiator,
lowering sound levels for the operator and the ground
crew.

Ratings of Caterpillar machine engines
are based on standard air conditions of
25°C and 100 kPa dry barometer. Power
is based on using 35° API gravity fuel
having an LHV of 42 780 kJ/kg when
used at 30°C (ref. a fuel density of
838.9 g/L). Net power advertised is the
power available at the flywheel when
the engine is equipped with fan, air
cleaner, muffler and alternator. No
derating required up to 3000 m altitude.
Dimensions
Bore 105 mm
Stroke 127 mm
Displacement 4.4 liters
Dual-element, dry-type air cleaner with
visual restriction indicator, thermal
starting aid electric priming pump and
fuel/water separator are standard.
Transmission
Two variable displacement piston
pumps supply pressurized flow to two
dual displacement piston motors. One
pump and motor drives the drum propel
system while the other pump and motor
drives the rear wheels. The dual pump
system ensures equal flow to the drive
motors regardless of the operating
conditions. In case the drum or wheels
lose traction, the other motor can still
build additional pressure to provide
added torque.
The drive motors have two swashplate
positions allowing operation at either
maximum torque for compaction and
gradeability or greater speed for moving
around the job site. A rocker switch at
the operator’s console triggers an
electric over hydraulic control to change
speed ranges.
