DZ 171 Bulldozer
The DZ 171 bulldozer is one of the most famous products of the Chelyabinsk street machine plant. Caterpillar chassis and 10th traction stroke made the technique the best option for working on hard ground.
DZ 171 is a classic example of a universal bulldozer, which has been used in various fields. At a relatively low price, the machine has excellent performance and long service life. The distinctive feature of the bulldozer is its unpretentiousness. It can be used in various climatic zones. The model shows high efficiency at temperatures from t-45 to +40 degrees.
The scope of application of the DZ 171 is really extensive. The main focus is to work on the ground (development, leveling terraces with uneven terrain, soil for short distances). The bulldozer is suitable for backfilling, pits and trenches that remain after the transfer of communications. In winter, the model is involved in clearing roads and meters from snow and debris.
DZ 171 is actively used by industrial companies in mining and coal industry. The bulldozer is used in the construction of roads, bridges, various structures and hydraulic structures. In agriculture, the model is used for soil work, reclamation and irrigation.
Modifications and functions
The basis for the creation of the DZ 171 bulldozer was the T 170.01 tractor. This series was widely used on the domestic market and had several modifications that differ from each other:
- Type of fuel used (kerosene, diesel fuel and gas condensate);
- Type of installed devices (various garbage collectors, scrapers, single- and triple-tooth rippers);
- Execution (temperate and tropical).
The latest modification of the bulldozer was the DZ-171.1 version, which replaced the basic version. The machine differed by a larger blade and working weight.
Before the overhaul DZ 171 had a huge enterprise resource, which reduced consumer costs. Among other things, the models were listed:
- A simple design that made repairs possible without special tools and fixtures;
- Large weight and powerful power plant, which in its traction class DZ 171 had practically no analogues;
- wide repair base, preserved from the Soviet times and actively used at the present time;
- Absence of negative effects when working with sharp temperature changes;
- Equality of elements and spare parts.
There are practically no disadvantages of the DZ 171 model. The only disadvantage is the end of production of this bulldozer and the presence of weak detailing. However, the unification and simplicity of design completely give away this disadvantage.
Under the foreign analogues of the model can be allocated bulldozers Shanui SD16 and TY165-2.

Design and working functions
DZ 171 bulldozer was created on the basis of the tractor “Promtractor 170.01”, many elements were “plucked” from it. When developing the model, employees of the Chelyabinsk plant have studied several analogues produced in European countries, which are advanced in their segment. The result is an interesting model with its own features. The developers decided that the weight of the truck should meet domestic operating standards, so there is a fundamentally new model with upgraded elements.
When creating the DZ 171 there were certain difficulties. Nodes and engine T 170.01 do not finalize the large mass of the bulldozer, but certain modifications allowed to achieve good results.
The basis of the model is a solid frame. The main components are attached to it. The bulldozer is equipped with a standard chassis. The basic part includes a technological control machine and 5 rollers. A special chassis with 7 rollers and larger shoes (900 mm) is provided for the “Swamp” version.
The engine power reducer on the chassis is made by a mechanical transmission, which includes a combined hydraulic and mechanical connections. To reduce vibrations, a counterweight was defined in the rear of the hull, secured by a propeller. Speed shifting was accomplished by a clutch connecting the flywheel of the apparatus and the gearbox. To avoid idiocy when starting the engine, the engine was started only when the speed was in neutral. The gearbox had 8 forward speeds and 4 reverse speeds. Some modifications (swamp version) had a gearbox with 6 forward and 3 reverse speeds.
Maneuverability was provided by a lever control system. A belt-type friction system provided braking and rotation. Partial locking of the tracked machine allowed to change the direction of movement.
The bulldozer’s electrical system was provided by a five-phase contactless electrical machine. The power output was through terminals on the rear cover of the generator connected to the fan disk. The electrical system consisted of 2 accumulators, which powered the starter when the engine was started, and the power to the consumers was provided by the drill motor.
The cabin was designed in a frame version with extended soundproofing and sound absorbing materials. The frame design provided a good view of the working areas, and modern materials blocked vibration and noise. The cab offered enhanced protection for the operator, even if the truck tipped over. Heating and ventilation kept the operator comfortable regardless of the climate. Later versions of the bulldozer were equipped with air conditioning. The operator’s workplace was a seat with several adjustment mechanisms. The control lever and buttons were straight and made it easy to operate the machine. On the signal field were all the indicators needed to monitor the operation of the device.
There were two types of dozer blade installed in front of the bulldozer: rotary or non-cutting. Augers and hydraulic screws were used to change the angle of tilt and cutting. A three-tooth chipper was installed at the rear.
engine
In the standard version DZ 171, it was equipped with a 4-stroke engine D 160.01. A similar unit was installed in the modern version (DZ 171.1). In its traction class the performance of the bulldozer was one of the best. To avoid strong vibration of the equipment the counterweight was used, which was mounted with special stepped joints at the bottom of the machine.
A liquid mechanism with a centrifugal pump was used as the general cooling system. A standard paper filtration system and Multicicclone® unit were used for air purification. These units allowed to remove dust and fine particles with great efficiency in autonomous mode.
The bulldozer could run on almost any type of fuel:
- on standard gas condensate;
- diesel fuel;
- on kerosene.
The D 160.01 engine was equipped with four operating cylinders, and the cylinder block was made of pure cast iron. Each block had one inlet valve and one outlet valve. The crankshaft, camshaft, and decompressor shaft were attached to the walls and bulkheads of the block. Bearing and tappet inspection lights were located on the right side of the block. Most of the mounting assemblies and power units were attached to the block. Fuel mixing and combustion took place in a chamber in the piston crown.
The power system included lubrication system, fuel pump, fuel pump with speed regulator, fuel filter, tank and nozzles.
Specifications of the engine D 160.01:
- displacement – 14.5 liters;
- Rated power – 170 hp;
- Rated speed – 1250 rpm;
- Torque – 25%.
The bulldozer had an average fuel consumption of 14.5 liters per hour, and a fuel tank holds up to 300 liters of fuel.
Producing of the DZ 171 was stopped long ago, and it is no longer possible to buy a new bulldozer. You can buy it from private owners or dealers. The cost varies depending on the modification, year of manufacture and condition:
- 1990-1993-270-380 thousand rubles;
- 1996-1999 – up to 600 000 rubles.
The cost of machines after overhaul is 720000-980000 rubles.

DZ-171 bulldozer: manufacturer, technical characteristics, photo, device
There is a huge selection of modern bulldozers and retailers that offer you. However, it is more popular to rent these devices or resell used machines. This can save you a lot of money, especially if the company is in its start-up phase or has a low workload. One of the best options would be the DZ-171, which not only has a low cost, but also a very high performance, especially when compared to competitors.
However, the manufacturer of the DZ-171 bulldozer does not currently have a crawler bulldozer among its products. For this reason, you should not rely on the service and rely only on the strength of your own company.
These crawler excavators are designed for excavation work, namely: moving, planning, developing, creating terraces in areas with uneven terrain, backfilling construction pits or trenches for laying cables or pipes. This equipment will be indispensable for various types of construction work: construction of bridges and hydraulic structures, building sidewalks, mining and many others. And if you remove snow, create embankments, form trenches, you can’t do without it at all.
DZ-171 belongs to the 10th traction group and is a worthy machine thanks to its engine.
It has a number of advantages:
- Simple enough design, thanks to which you can do without repairing special equipment;
- Perfectly suited for conditions of 40 degrees of frost and 40 degrees of heat;
- For its weight has a very powerful engine, which is really ahead of its modern counterparts;
- Low price for spare parts and the bulldozer itself;

operation and maintenance
What was the DZ-171 bulldozer designed for? T-170-A tractor, which is the prototype for the described unit. In this regard, the DZ-171 has received a number of advantages, namely:
- Simple design, which allows you to carry out repair work without expensive imported special tools and equipment.
- Great weight and powerful engine, which has reduced to a minimum the competition for the bulldozer in its class.
- Highest degree of cross-country ability on dirt, snow, sand, off-road.
- The widest repair base, preserved since the days of the USSR and is actively used today.
- No damages caused by sharp fluctuations in ambient temperature.
- Low cost of spare parts and components.
Of the negative aspects of the machine can be noted only that the latter cracks when driving on asphalt. Due to the fact that the bulldozer is no longer in production, every year it becomes more and more difficult to choose a really high-quality components, but at the moment on the domestic market there are still a large number of them.
As many years of practice has shown, the design of the bulldozer is such that many repairs can be performed by workers with fairly low qualifications and without special education.
Bulldozer DZ-171: technical characteristics, price
This model is one of the most famous, produced by the Chelyabinsk enterprise, a manufacturer of street equipment. Everything about the DZ-171 bulldozer will tell in detail its technical characteristics, price and design features.
The Caterpillar platform has allowed this equipment to become the best option when it is necessary to carry out work on very heavy soil. The bulldozer is designed on a tractor platform. This versatile, very unpretentious equipment is used when it is necessary to level the terrain, backfill a ditch, move slabs, and clean a construction site. Although the serial production of units is already established, a pleasant ratio of price and reliable quality of performance provides the relevance of the bulldozer model DZ-171.
advantages
Since the basis for the model was a well-known tractor, this series of special equipment was widely used due to the availability of spare parts and had various modifications. These included:
- The variant of fuel used.
- The type of devices.
- Type of maintenance.
The latest development released by the manufacturer is DZ-171.1. It came to replace the basic version, which was produced for many years. The bulldozer is equipped with a large blade, its working mass is much larger than in the previous model. Special devices had a significant resource of the company, due to which the cost of use is significantly reduced. Other advantages of the model are worth noting:
- Simple design, which can be used to repair devices without special fixtures and special tools.
- Low weight with high performance, thanks to the bulldozer, which has almost no counterparts in this traction class.
- Extensive repair base, left over from the Soviet period, which is actively used.
- Absence of negative moments during the operation of the enterprise, which is carried out in conditions where severe temperature fluctuations are possible.
- Cheapness of the units and spare parts.
