Power Train

Aggressive performance.

Vertical Lift Linkage

Radial Lift Linkage

Lift Linkages

Choice of lift designs.

Two types of lifting arrangement are available – vertical lift and radial lift – tomeet your specic application needs.

Vertical Lift

The 249D3, 259D3, 289D3, 299D3 and 299D3 XE feature the vertical lift design which provides extended reach and lift height for material handling or quick and easy truck loading.

Radial Lift

The 239D3 and 279D3 feature the radial lift design which delivers excellent digging performance and superior mid-lift reach.

Cat® Engine

The electronically controlled Cat C2.2, C3.3B, and C3.8 engines provide high horsepower and torque. These rugged, reliable engines meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU StageIV* (C3.8), EU Stage V (C3.3B), and EU Stage IIIB* (C2.2) emission standards.

* Stage IV and Stage IIIB engines comply with the transition provisions of the EU non-road emission

regulation.

Cat Intelligent Leveling (ILEV) System

The exclusive Cat Intelligent Leveling System takes machine performance toanewlevel and provides industry leading features such as:

• Electronic Dual Self Leveling that allows the operator to automatically maintain alevel load whether lifting or lowering

• Return-to-dig which allows the operator to pre-set the digging angle of the bucket andthen automatically lowers the lift arms and recalls the bucket angle

• Work Tool Positioner which allows the angle of the work tool (bucket, box rake, cold planer, forks, trencher, etc.) to be pre-set and thenautomatically recalled ifthemachine is repositioned, increasing productivity

• Electronic snubbing that automatically cushions the descent of the lift arms, slowing the downward motion just before the arms reach their stops

Electronic Throttle

An electronic dial-type throttle lets you set precise RPM setting. When the dial is moved to the high-idle position, the foot throttle functions as a decelerator pedal. This gives you greater control, allowing you to quickly adjust the travel speed during precise maneuvers or to regulate engine speed when using hydro-mechanical work tools.

Thethrottle-smoothing feature monitors the accelerator pedal’s movement under the operator’s foot when traveling over rough terrain and adjusts to provide a steadier, moreeven travel speed.

Steel Embedded Rubber Track Undercarriage

Suspended undercarriage for versatility, comfort and durability.

Torsion Suspension Undercarriage

The Cat Compact Track Loaders feature the industry’s only standard, torsion suspension undercarriage with a steel embedded rubber track. Heavy-duty torsion axles suspend the CTL undercarriage and can move independently relative to the machine and each other. Theseaxles absorb most of the shock to the undercarriage, machine and operator, especially over rough terrain. This means smooth travel, even at high speeds, as well as better load retention and greater productivity. The performance-tuned undercarriage system delivers improved operating stability while handling heavy loads, grading, or truck loading. Choose bar or block style tread to optimize ride, traction, otation andground disturbance for your application.

Outstanding Durability

The CTL undercarriage system features highly durable and easily maintained components. Steel imbeds provide a rigid support for the entire width of the track and provide excellent durability in a wide variety of applications. Continuously wound cables hold these imbeds in place and provide tensile strength, ensuring the track does not stretch. Following the same philosophy as Cat Track-Type Tractors, the elevated external positive drive system keeps drive components away from ground debris. Planetary nal drive motors improve torque and drawbar performance, delivering more power to the ground. Steel rollers with metal face seals provide maximum protection for wheel bearings resulting in long-term durability and reliability in even the toughest conditions. The simple recoil grease tensioning system allows quick track tension adjustment.

Performance

Solutions for a wide range ofapplications.

High Performance Hydraulic System

Maximum power and reliability are built into the Cathydraulic system to help you get the job done faster. The hydraulic system features outstanding liftand breakout forces. The standard demand fanprovides improved fuel efciency andincreased horsepower.

High Flow Hydraulic Systems

High Flow (239D3/249D3/259D3) and High Flow XPS (279D3/289D3/299D3) hydraulic systems are available for applications that demand maximum work tool performance. The 299D3 XE high ow system features the highest level of hydraulic performance with 94 hydraulic HP (70 kW).

Two Speed (Standard on all CTL models)

Increase your productivity with standard Two Speed on all Compact Track Loader models.

Ride Control

The optional Speed Sensitive Ride Control system delivers a smoother ride on uneven terrain for superior comfort, higher speed operation and better material retention.
