Guide: List of Terms: Heavy Equipment – Bulldozer

The following is a list of terms that the student may see in the Bulldozer digital learning experience (DLX). If these words are unfamiliar, it may be helpful to look them up beforehand, although many of them may become clear through practice in the DLX. This list does not include every part of the backhoe, just some words that may be strange, not obvious, or unclear. (Words listed with an * are words that describe the condition of a part of the bulldozer, not a bulldozer part itself.)
