Overview

One Machine, Many Jobs

Save money and transport time with one machine for land clearing, digging, grading, truck loading, slope work and more. With track loaders you get lower ground pressure and better traction so you can start earlier and work longer in soft underfoot conditions. Cat® Track Loaders bring you all of this, plus improved performance and fuel efficiency. 

Benefits

Versatile

The most versatile machine on the jobsite lets you clear, dig, grade, load, carry and so much more, all with one machine. Special configurations equip you for landfill and ship hold work.

Up To 25% Fuel savings

Eco Modes and a more efficient engine mean you can take on a wide variety of tasks while using significantly less fuel.

Less Ground Pressure

Work when and where other machines cannot. Track loaders give you traction and flotation in a range of ground conditions so you can get to work while other machines sit on the sidelines.
