Ergonomic Operator Station

Ample legroom inside the cab makes rotating the seat simple. The air suspension seat provides comfort to the operator while roading. New backhoe control pods allow for unlimited adjustability.

Load Sensing Hydraulics

The Cat Backhoe Loader's load sensing piston pump provides full hydraulic lifting and digging forces at any engine speed. Variable flow pump matches hydraulic power to work demands.

Machine Performance

The 420F2 Backhoe Loader delivers superior breakout forces and aggressiveness in hard bank applications.

Machine Versatility

A broad range of performance matched Cat Work Tools make the Cat Backhoe Loader the most versatile machine on the job site. All Backhoe Loaders have standard thumb ready sticks. The Integrated Tool Carrier (IT Loader) provides versatility and allows quick connection to a variety of Cat Work Tools.

Dual Lock Coupler

Cat dual lock coupler is available from the factory with either mechanical or hydraulic operation. The coupler makes work tool changes quick and easy.
