Product Feature

Versatility


  • Largest track loader in the industry provides the power, breakout force and capacity to take on tough construction utility, forestry and quarry jobs.

  • Specialized Steel Mill configuration factory equipped to withstand high temperatures and steel mill conditions – handle hot slag with ease and safety.

  • Purpose-built Waste Handler features added guarding and seals, specialized air handling, plus a choice of track shoes and buckets to take on the challenges of landfill and transfer station work.

  • Quick coupler option adds versatility by allowing easy use of forks, buckets, etc. from wheel loaders and other machines.

Efficiency

    

  • Reduce your fuel costs, using 10-25 percent less fuel per hour than the previous model.  

  • Move up to 10 percent more material per hour with optional Performance Series bucket.  

  • Easier maintenance and repair with a tilt cab and convenient service access points.  

  • Demand fan provides efficient cooling plus easy service/clean-out access.    

  • Manage your fleet more effectively and profitably through remote monitoring with Product Link™/VisionLink®.

Performance


  • Smoother implement and steering response, and improved steering performance over the previous model.

  • Precise, responsive performance with features like load sensing hydraulics and position sensing cylinders.

  • Power and fast response under load with a Cat C9.3 engine.

  • Reduced engine noise* – quieter for the operator and others around the work site.

*Compared to the 973D.


Product Parameter

Overview

Save money and transport time with one rugged machine for land clearing, digging, grading, truck loading, slope work and more. Crawler loaders give you reduced ground pressure and better traction so you can start the job earlier and work longer in soft underfoot conditions. Purpose-built Waste Handler, Steel Mill and Low Ground Pressure configurations stand up to the toughest applications. This new generation of Cat® Track Loaders brings you all of this, plus improved performance and fuel efficiency.
