Tire Monitoring Systems on Cat® Machines

To All Caterpillar and Dealer employees:

The MineStar Health product group is pleased to announce the support of (2) two additional
tire monitoring systems for Caterpillar machines. These systems are third-party sensors
installed on Caterpillar truck tires to gather real-time information enabling operators to
monitor tire data.

As it stands today, the remote monitoring capabilities are available through VIMS, utilizing the
machine display and electronic control module. The in-cab machine display provides alerts to
the operator when tire pressures and temperatures fall outside of prescribed limits.

The currently supported tire monitoring systems are:

• Rimex TyreSense,
• Bridgestone B-Tag,
• Bridgestone iTrack (NEW),
• Michelin MEMS (NEW)

• 793F, • 797F.

Key Benefits

and control costs. Benefits include, but are not limited to:
