CAT D6B Bulldozer

The Caterpillar D6B Bulldozer was first built in the early 1960's by Caterpillar as a replacement to the medium sized D6. This Stormworks model is primarily designed to look similar to a mid 1960's early 1970's model.

Operation:
- Turn on the Master Switch
- Advance the throttle to 0.10 (already set by default)
- Turn on the Engine
- Once running advance the throttle to 1.0
- Engage the Neutral Safety Switch (Up Position)
- Release the Parking Brake
- Press and hold the Deccelerator (Right Arrow Key)
- Select a Gear (Indicated by the gear lever position R N 1 2 3)
- Release the Deccelerator

Driving:
- Use the 'W' or Up Arrow keys to release the clutch for the left or right track respectively, the bulldozer will make a slow turn.
- Use the 'S' or Down Arrow keys to apply the brake for the left or right track respectively, the bulldozer will make a tight turn or pivot.
*Note: Shifting from forward to reverse should be done by first pressing and holding the deccelerator and then selecting reverse or a forward gear to avoid stalling.

Stopping/Shutdown:
- Use either the deccelerator or the track brakes to stop
- Set the Gear Shift Lever to Neutral
- Apply the Parking Brake
- Disengage the Neutral Safety Switch (Down Position)
*Note: According to the manual Caterpillar states that anytime you get off the vehicle you should disengage this, regardless of whether the vehicle is running or not.
- Decrease the throttle to zero and turn off the master Switch

If you can do this, you can now operate a real bulldozer :D

*Note: The gauges are positioned accurately and respond accurately but do not display any actual values ingame (except the fuel pressure gauge, that is accurate). Also, the readings are completely wrong. I made them inaccurate (as compared to the real world bulldozer) because the in game engines run VERY cold, and I wanted everything to sort of "match up".

ENJOY!

UPDATE 13 JAN 2022:
- Changed the Throttle and Ignition Controls
- Added the 'Control Handle' to replicate the appearance of the Track Clutch Levers (non-functional)
-Changed a few gauges output values
