Highly detailed full-rigged and texture Bulldozer
Detailed enough to render even at close range.
Rigged including tracks that automatically move when you move the body.
Due to a large number of controllers in order to speedup animating there is one controller object for the bucket and arms with there oil trunks ... and other dummy control the moving of all the excavator

A bulldozer is a self-propelled digging machine, which is a tracked or wheeled tractor, a tractor and the like with a mounted working body - a dump (shield) curved in cross-section located outside the base of the chassis of the machine.
It is used for layer-by-layer digging, planning and moving (to a distance of 10 - 200 meters) of soils, minerals, road-building and other materials in the construction and repair of roads, canals, hydraulic structures and the like. Also, the bulldozer is used in the development of placers, on dumps, during reclamation, as an auxiliary machine in quarries. In addition, the bulldozer is used in the construction and repair of roads, as well as as a pusher (for example, when filling self-propelled and trailed scrapers) and the like.
The word "bulldozer" appeared at the end of the XIX century - it refers to any force that can move a large mass. In 1923, the first bulldozer appeared - a huge and noisy car. They were made on the basis of tractors by mounting a metal shield in front; unlike a bulldozer, tractors appeared much earlier, in the XIX century, and were steam. So, in England already in the 1830s, locomobiles worked on agricultural work (even then imperfect tractors could compete with 15-30 horses each). In the second half of the 19th century, about two thousand of these machines were already operating in the fields of Great Britain.
With a fixed blade mounted perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the base machine;
with a rotary blade, which in the horizontal plane can be installed at an angle on both sides of the longitudinal axis of the machine or perpendicular to it;
universal with a blade of two articulated halves mounted in a horizontal plane at different angles to the longitudinal axis of the machine or perpendicular to it (track-laying machine).
Dumps of all types of bulldozers are equipped with mechanisms with a hydraulic, mechanical (cable-block) or electromechanical drive for lifting – lowering, turning in a plan, skewing in the transverse plane, tilting back and forth along the course. Bulldozers are equipped with replaceable equipment (cultivators, slopes, expanders, postcards, and others), expanding their scope and increasing efficiency in individual jobs.
