Cat 963K Track Loader

Track Loaders

About the Cat 963K Track Loader

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.

Features

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.
