BUILT TO PERFORM Engine power increased by approximately 22% improves machine performance and response (compared to H Series). Lock-up clutch torque converter, combined with lock-to-lock shifting, delivers smooth shifts, fast acceleration and speed on grade. High capacity torque converter results in greater digging efficiency. Z-bar linkage provides high breakout force at ground level. Optional high lift linkage offers increased hinge pin height to load more easily in a variety of applications. Easy-to-load Performance Series Buckets feature a wider mouth and curved side plates that improve material retention (fill factor) and decrease cycle times. Optional fully automatic traction control system (differential locks) improves performance in the pile and poor underfoot conditions.

LONG TERM VALUE AND DURABILITY Tough countershaft powershift transmission and axles handle extreme applications. Improved hydraulic hose routing reduces potential hose wear. Full flow hydraulic filtration system with additional loop filtration improves hydraulic system robustness and component life.

RELIABILITY YOU CAN COUNT ON Cat® C7.1 engine offers a combination of proven electronic, fuel, and air systems. Utilizing rigorous component design and machine validation processes results in unmatched reliability, durability and high uptime.
