Hey guys,
I am having some problems with the Caterpillar Performance Handbook. I don't understand some things.
First, on the "Effective Grade" Charts (Grade Assistance minus Rolling), what if I have a grade assistance of 2% and a rolling resistance of 4%?? I get -2%, how do I do that?? Also according to the way to do that a steeper grade would be a higher Total Resistance, how is that, more retarding??
I have some more questions, but lets take care of that one first.
