Cat Track Loaders 963K
Product Feature
Versatility
Steel track undercarriage allows you to work in wet, soft, or sensitive underfoot conditions.
Finish jobs in less time – track loaders can often start the job earlier and work longer than other machines due to their lower ground pressure and increased traction.
Quick Coupler Ready – Fusion™ Quick Coupler option allows easy use of forks, buckets, etc. from wheel loaders and other Fusion compatible machines.
Efficiency
963K uses 10–25 percent less fuel per hour than the previous model.*
Efficient use of Diesel Exhaust Fluid(1) – typically 2.5-3 percent of fuel consumption – provides excellent overall fluid efficiency.
Optional Performance Series bucket helps you move up to 5 percent more material per hour.
Tilt cab and convenient service access points for easier maintenance and repair.
Demand fan provides efficient cooling plus easy fold-down service access.
Remote monitoring with Product Link™/VisionLink® helps you manage your fleet more effectively and profitably.
Performance
Smoother implement and steering response, and improved steering performance over the previous model.*
Features like load sensing hydraulics and position sensing cylinders offer precise, responsive performance.
Cat® C7.1 ACERT™ engine delivers power and fast response when the machine is under load.
Reduced engine noise* – quieter for the operator and others around the work site.
Ease of Operation
Choose either joystick or two-lever implement controls to match operator preference or application.
Speed/steering controls available as either a joystick or as v-lever and foot pedals.
Updated cab offers operator comforts like suspension seat, adjustable armrests and controls, and an improved air conditioning system.
Excellent visibility to the bucket and all around the machine enhances safety and helps operators work more confidently.
Handles and steps help operators climb on and off the machine more easily, from the front or the back of the tracks.
Set implement response – fine, normal, coarse – to match operator preference or application.
Emissions reduction technology(1) is designed to be transparent to the operator.
*Compared to the 963D.
(1) Machine equipped with U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final/EU Stage IV emissions reduction technology.
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, Ship Hold and Partial Steel Mill 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.
