Designed for performance

    
• Final drives and idlers feature specialized protection against damage to seals caused by wire, plastic and other wrapping debris.
    
• Idler guards and scrapers protect and limit the entry of debris to the tensioning system.
    
• Engine compartment seals limit debris entry and plugging of radiator core; gaps sealed between sheet metal and other components for added protection.
    
• Guarding helps protect lift lines, lift cylinder hydraulic tube, bucket hydraulic lines and tilt cylinder from damage by falling debris.
    
• Laminated thermal shields and insulated clean emission module.*
    
• Heavy duty rear bumper on Extreme Service package offers optimal protection to the back of the machine – especially the cooling system. Includes a heavy duty grill with latch for quick opening, as well as a hitch.
    
• Rear striker bars help keep trash from damaging the fenders and to help extend sheet metal life.

Ease of Operation

Cab updates offer added comfort and convenience for operators. New handles and steps make access/egress even easier from the front or the back of the tracks.

Technology

Remote monitoring with Product Link™/VisionLink® helps you manage your fleet more effectively and profitably.

Note: Extreme Service model shown. Guarding and features may vary by machine model. Please consult your Cat dealer for details.

*Compared to previous models.

Designed with protection in mind

    
• Bars help protect windshield and operator from breakage and debris. New cab door guards offer added protection.
    
• Rear vision camera** enhances visibility behind the machine.
    
• New handles and steps help operators climb on and off the machine more easily, from the front or the back of the tracks.
    
• Excellent visibility to the bucket and all around the machine helps operators work more confidently.

Power and efficiency

    
• The more efficient engine and an Eco Mode combine to deliver a 10-25 percent reduction in fuel consumption compared to the D Series models.
    
• Center-hole track helps reduce packing. Choose from a variety of shoe types and widths to optimize the loader for your application.
    
• Double Grouser Shoes provide good balance of traction and a smooth ride. Recommended for reduced damage when working on concrete.
    
• Single Grouser Track is aggressive for good chopping action and the best traction in poor underfoot conditions.
    
• Landfill bucket equipped with heavy-duty trash rack to increase bucket capacity, reduce spillage, and help protect tilt cylinder rod.
    
• Quick coupler option adds versatility with easy use of forks, buckets and other attachments from compatible machines.
    
• Optional 8-light LED package illuminates work area with four lights at top front corner of windshield and four on air conditioning compressor guard.
    
• Smarter power train management gives you power when you need it and improved implement and steering response.
    
• A hydraulic demand fan reduces speed in cooler conditions to conserve power, save fuel and decrease sound levels.

When uptime counts

    
• Turbine precleaner reduces particles coming into the engine air inlet for extended engine filter life.
    
• Cooling system is specially designed for high debris environments.
    
• Reversing fan helps limit radiator plugging and increase maintenance interval.
    
• Cooling system access from the engine compartment with fold-down fan for easy clean-out.
    
• Grouped service points located behind large access doors; daily grease points in easy reach at ground level.
    
• Handy bracket holds a shovel for quick undercarriage clean-out.
    
• Tilt cab allows easy access to drive train and hydraulic systems.
    
• Cab-mounted heating/ventilation/air conditioning (HVAC) system gives you more cooling capability, and removes the condenser from under the hood for reduced heat and easier service.

    
• Extreme Service package provides even more guarding to equip the machine for tougher work like demolition and transfer station.

    
• Faster, easier cleanout.
    
• Wide gauge undercarriage equipped with a standard track shoe allows more space for debris to pass between the track roller frame, tracks and chassis.
    
• Design helps reduce damage caused by debris carried on the tracks.
    
• Heavier waste configuration combined with narrower track shoes increases ground pressure for greater compaction.

    
• Specialized air handling features deliver cleaner air to the machine and cab.
    
• Updated cab gives operators added comforts like adjustable armrests and controls, improved air conditioning system and a heated/ventilated seat option.
    
• Electro-Hydraulic Implement Controls provide responsive, smooth and precise control of bucket and lift arms.
    
• Excellent visibility to the bucket and all around the machine helps operators work more confidently, especially in tight spaces.
    
• Reduced engine noise* makes the environment quieter for the operator and others around the worksite.
