--------------- END SUPPLEMENT ---------------
A voltage converter assembly is available for use on machines with a 24 volt electrical system to get a 12 volt power source for operation of optional electrical equipment.
The 9G6981 Voltage Converter Assembly has an output that is rated at four amperes continuous operation. The voltage converter assembly must be connected to a power supply with a 10 ampere fuse.
It is Caterpillar's recommendation that the voltage converter assembly be installed in the operator's compartment. Do not install the voltage converter assembly in the engine compartment or in areas where high temperatures are present.
Installation information is given in the Special Instruction, "Installation Of 9G6981 Voltage Converter Assembly", Form SMHS7749.
