The machine is powered by a Tier 3 Case 6.7litre engine and will soon be joined by the smaller 1150K model.
The 1650L has a dual path PowerStat hydrostatic transmission, using variable axial piston pumps and motors to prABEovide a maximum drawbar pull of 275.1kN, while the 1150K will deliver 213.5kN. As the transmission delivers drive to each track independently, it is possible to continue to push at full power throughout a turn, offering the operator maximum control for fine grading and for slope work, such as haul road maintenance.

The machines benefit from an isolation-mounted cab that offers low noise and vibration levels with a spacious environment for the operator. A narrow, advanced instrument cluster is mounted in front of the driver, with clear lines of visibility to either side of the blade and to the tracks. The engine canopy and nose section are also tapered to further improve visibility to the working area.
Customers have a choice of three undercarriage configurations to meet their operating requirements on either model. These include the 1650L XLT extra long track, with a 1.87m track gauge and 610mm track shoes; the 1650L WT wide track, with a 2.13m gauge and 711mm wide shoes; and the 1650LGP low ground pressure machine, which comes with the longer 2.13m gauge and 864mm wide track shoes.
