Hydraulics
Exceptional lift, breakout and power to meet your needs.
High Performance Hydraulic System
Maximum power and reliability are built into the Cat Multi Terrain Loader hydraulic
system. In addition to providing power to the tracks, this system also powers the
loader lift and tilt functions, powers the auxiliary circuit to drive work tools and
drives the engine cooling fan. The hydraulic system features increased lift and tilt
breakout forces allowing you to move more material and get more done. The
continuous demand fan provides improved fuel efficiency, increased horsepower,
reduced sound levels and improved cold weather performance. Cat ToughGuard™
hoses increase reliability and durability. High capacity hydraulic tank and side-by-
side cooling package keep components cool for maximum durability.
High Flow XPS
High flow XPS hydraulic system is available on all models for greater machine
versatility. Maximum performance can be maintained regardless of the work
tool speed or conditions with this load sensing, pressure compensating system.
Cat cooling systems are sized to allow the operator to continuously power high
flow work tools in conditions that cause competitive machines to overheat.
Selectable Implement Control
The Selectable Implement Control option with three levels of control gives the
operator the ability to adjust the responsiveness and speed of the lift and tilt
functions for more precise implement control.
Two Speed Option
Two speed option increases top speed up to 14.9 km/h (9.3 mph) allowing you
to finish jobs faster.
Rubber Track Undercarriage
Unique undercarriage delivers low ground pressure, superior suspension.
Cat Multi Terrain Loaders feature a rugged, durable rubber track that is lightweight
and pliable, yet reinforced with high tensile strength cords. The undercarriage
provides low ground pressure, allowing the machine to operate over sensitive
surfaces and in soft underfoot conditions. Elevated, internal positive track drive
keep drive components away from ground debris. Heavy duty torsion axles
suspend each side of the machine frame independently for a smoother ride over
rough terrain. Components are replaceable as individual wear items, reducing
owning and operating costs.
Dual Level Suspension Undercarriage
The standard dual level suspension undercarriage provides oscillating roller
wheel assemblies that independently pivot to provide maximum track on the
ground, better load retention, improved operator comfort and one of the
smoothest rides in the industry.
