Specifications

Features

Efficiently Powerful

Intelligent Power Management

The Caterpillar exclusive Intelligent Power Management system has been further enhanced to monitor operator input and power availability to keep the machine working at peak efficiency and provide the operator with greater customization to suit their application.

Power on Demand

A choice of Power Modes allows you to choose between maximum fuel efficiency or boosted power along with hydraulic speed.

Standard Power Mode

• Saves up to 10% fuel compared to K Series Cat loader.
• Delivers equal performance compared to K Series Cat Loader.
• Reduces cab sound levels down to a whisper quiet 64 dB(A) typical.
• Biggest gains seen during load and carry, snow removal and roading applications.

Performance Power Mode

• Enabled at the push of a button (HP+).
• Boosts engine power by up to 10% and engine speed by over 12%.
• Increases hydraulic cycle times and productivity.

Six Cylinders of Efficient Power

The Cat C7.1 ACERT engine provides cleaner, quieter operation while delivering superior performance and durability through a high torque, low speed design. The engine meets Tier 4 Final and Stage IV emission standards with a Clean Emissions Module that is designed to manage itself so you can concentrate on your work.

• No downtime for regeneration with a passive low temperature system that keeps you on the job.
• Fit for Life Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) that is designed to exceed the engine overhaul life.
• Extended fluid fill intervals with minimal use of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) also referred to as Adblue™ with an average of four fuel tank fills per DEF fill.
• Configurable auto idle shut down based on time and ambient temperature to further reduce fuel burn and keep operating costs low.
• Spark arrestor performance as standard – Meets performance requirements of EN 1834-1.2000 (section 6.4.2 Visual Test).

Power to the Ground

Lock up and go with fully locking front differential axles that can be engaged on the move at full torque with a pull of the seat mounted joystick trigger. Maximize your traction with optional Limited Slip Differential on the rear axle to keep you climbing.

Independent service brakes on front and rear axles provide robust stopping performance while a push button electronic park brake allows you to safely secure the machine with ease.

Work Made Easy

Optimized Z-bar Linkage

The Caterpillar patented optimized Z-bar linkage combines the digging efficiency of a traditional Z-bar with integrated tool carrier capabilities for great performance and versatility.

• Perfect Parallelism functionality available in Fork Mode gives truly predictable performance while high tilt forces throughout the working range help you safely and confidently handle loads with precise control.
• Visibility to bucket corners and fork tips at ground level remain excellent while sight lines at maximum lift are improved with a Generation II lift arm design.
• Lift higher and reach further with optional High Lift linkage available on all three models.

Quick Loading Performance Series Buckets

Performance Series Buckets deliver up to 10% higher fill factors compared to previous models, better material retention for significant productivity and fuel efficiency improvements. The buckets feature a longer floor to take a bigger bite of the pile, an open throat to heap higher and curved side bars to help with material retention. This optimized shape is echoed across the General Purpose, Light Material and High Dump bucket families.

Smooth and Predictable Multi-Function Performance

M Series machines feature an electro-hydraulic control system that is governed by the Intelligent Power Management system for peak efficiency. The load-sensing, variable flow system senses work demand and adjusts flow and pressure to match the operators request.

• Multi-Function without compromise through dedicated hydraulic systems featuring one pump for the Intelligent Hydrostatic drive, a 2nd pump for the implements, and a 3rd pump for the steering system. Drive, Lift and Steer simultaneously with smooth predictable control. The M Series simply does what you ask it to.
• Programmable in-cab kick-outs are easy to set on the go for tilt, lower and lift. This feature is ideal for applications where the work cycle is repeatable, allowing you to quickly return to programmed set points such as ground and level.
• Fine tune hydro-mechanical performance with fully adjustable 3rd and 4th function flow through the secondary display (when equipped) for a perfect marriage between machine and work tool.
