517 Skidder
The 517 Skidder is designed to maximize skidding performance, reliability and ease of
operation to exceed the customer’s expectations.
Power Train
The field proven Cat® 3304 DIT diesel
engine, heavy-duty torque converter
and three-speed transmission are
matched to deliver high horsepower for
more drawbar pull, improved skidding
performance and ease of operation.
pg. 4
Application Flexibility
The 517 Skidder provides unsurpassed
performance and application flexibility
due to superior balance, torque
converter power train and expanded
track and grapple/arch options.
The versatile PAT blade makes the
517 a multi-purpose machine. pg. 5
Engineered for demanding work.
The 517 Skidder is a state-of-the-art
machine that represents Caterpillar’s
commitment to the logging industry.
Reliable, durable operation.
The 517 Skidder builds upon a strong
history of reliability and durability set
by the 527 and previous generations
of Caterpillar track-type skidders.
2
Undercarriage
Use of D5H sized heavy-duty track
prolongs the life of the key
undercarriage components, including
rollers, idlers, pins, bushings and shoes.
An extended track roller frame places
more track under grapple/winch loads
and enhances balance.
pg. 6
Load-Sensing Hydraulic System
The load sensing hydraulic system
reduces horsepower consumption and
system heat. A single lever controls
grapple and tong hydraulics, reducing
operator efforts for improved
productivity. Exclusive Auto-Grab
hydraulics maintain constant tong
gripping pressures to compensate for
shifting loads. pg. 7
Operator Station
Excellent all-around viewing area,
angled seat, and easy-to-reach controls
reduce operator fatigue and increase
productivity. Available with enclosed
cab or open canopy. pg. 8-9
The 517 Cable Skidder
The 517 is also offered in a cable
configuration to meet application
demands in severe slope and
mountainous terrain. pg. 10
Serviceability/Customer Support
Many convenient service features,
including parts availability supported
by a worldwide computer network,
enhance Caterpillar’s total commitment
to customer support.

Power Train
Four cylinder, four stroke engine and heavy-duty torque converter significantly improve
skidding performance.
Turbocharged Cat 3304 DIT diesel
engine sets the industry standard
for reliability and durability. Its four
cylinder, four stroke design delivers
136 hp (101 kW) at 2200 rpm.
■
The torque converter reduces the
tendency for track-to-ground slip,
further improving the 517’s
performance in soft underfoot
conditions.
A direct-injection fuel system uses
adjustment-free unit fuel injectors for
efficient, accurate fuel metering and
reduced emissions.
■
Less operator effort is required to
match gear range to engine rpm as
torque multiplication reduces the need
for up and down-shifting.
■
Pre-screener removes large debris
before it reaches the air cleaner to
provide significant engine protection
in harsh logging environments.
■
■
Resilient engine mounting results in
quieter operation and less vibration.
■
Large, heavy-duty torque converter is
matched to the 3304 engine power for
excellent drawbar pull and improved
skidding performance.
■
4
A fluid coupling allows the engine to
run in its optimal rpm range for more
efficient use of available engine
power.
Traction and load induced shocks are
absorbed by the fluid coupling of the
converter, thereby protecting power
train components and contributing to
longer life.
Six-row radiator core has large surface
areas for improved heat rejection.
■
High volume fan for increased airflow
and improved cooling ability.
■
High fan speed (2200 rpm) allows
machine to operate in high, ambient
temperatures.
■
Modular steel cores increase
durability and resistance to corrosion.
■
Each core module can be replaced
individually, saving considerable cost
and repair time.
Three-speed planetary power shift
transmission is designed and built by
Caterpillar and delivers three speeds in
both forward and reverse. This fieldproven system works best in high-pull
applications and is well suited for large
load and steep terrain skidding.
■
The 517 has increased cooling
capacity to meet the demands of
logging applications and extend the
life of key power train components.
Application Flexibility
The 517 Skidder can easily handle a variety of tasks and applications for today’s loggers.
Maximum skidding performance is best attained through the
available swing boom and grapple. This tool is ideal for sitesensitive locations with soft underfoot terrain.
High horsepower and torque further enhance the 517’s dozing
abilities. The available PAT blade offers high levels of
versatility in dozing, decking, and pioneering applications.
Expanded track options allow the 517 to maintain skidding
performance and minimize ground disturbance in a wide
range of ground conditions.
Excellent ground clearance of 25" (646 mm) allows the 517
to readily avoid obstacles, maneuver in poor underfoot
conditions, and work effectively and efficiently on snow
covered sites.
5
Undercarriage
Undercarriage options provide optimized performance and durability, while allowing
customization for different logging applications.
Heavy-duty track roller frame and
undercarriage are key to the 517’s
superior balance and durability.
■
Available with 7 or 8 rollers, the
extended track roller frame places
rear idlers beneath grapple/winch
loads, improving skidder balance
and performance.
■
D5H sized heavy duty undercarriage
components better withstand impact
and abrasion, enhancing wear life.
Supported undercarriage options
reduce stress loads and impact forces on
undercarriage assemblies and contribute
to longer system life.
■
Tri track shoes [available in widths of
26" (660 mm) and 30" (760 mm)]
provide an additional outer row of
links for improved durability.
■
Additional width of supported
undercarriage reduces ground
disturbance/compaction and improves
skidder flotation.

Hydraulics
Load Sensing Hydraulic system improves skidding performance and efficiency.
Load sensing hydraulics utilize a load
sensing, variable displacement pump
and pressure compensating system
which continually monitors dozer and
grapple hydraulic power requirements.
■
■
■
System reduces engine horsepower
demand by placing pump in low
pressure stand-by when not needed
for hydraulic output.
The Auto-Grab feature from Caterpillar
constantly monitors and adjusts
tong pressure as needed to securely
hold grapple loads while skidding.
■
■
Provides constant tong
pressure without continuous
hydraulic pump demand.
Activated by switch on
right hand console.

More power is available to the drive
train for increased skidding power

The 517 Cable Skidder
The 517 winch is specifically designed for the 517 to help maximize productivity.
Exceptional winching performance.
The combination of high drawbar pull,
torque converter driveline and balance
enable the 517 to overcome the loads
created during winch application.
■
The winch delivers an impressive
68,782 lb (31 264 kg) of line pull.
■
517 winch controls operate reel-in,
reel-out brake and freespool functions.
■
Modulation of the winch brake
control can be utilized to manipulate
the load during winch applications in
mountainous environments.
10
Superior balance and pulling power
enable the 517 to skid large loads with
the optional 517 winch. This highly
productive winch has been specifically
designed for the 517 skidder in steep
and mountainous skidding applications.
Serviceability
The most serviceable machines from the most committed dealers.
Built-in servicing ease. Less service
time means more working time. Major
components are made as modules and
most can be removed without disturbing
or removing others.
Ground-level access provides
convenient servicing to most filters
and lube points.
Centrifugal pre-screener removes large
debris before it reaches the internal air
cleaner, significantly increasing engine
protection.
Spin-on fuel and engine oil filters
save changing time.
Radial seal air filters are easy to
change, reducing air filter maintenance
times.
24-volt electrical system delivers
increased electrical power for engine
cranking, lights, and engine diagnostics.
