Sustainability
Like most Cat equipment, the 992K is designed to
use fuel wisely and incorporates emissions and
sound reduction technologies.
Caterpillar rst introduced the 992 in 1968. This large
wheel loader has been aglobal leader ever since,
building a reputation as a face loader that’s both safe to
operate, productive anddurable. With the introduction of
the K Series™, we’veenhanced the operator’s experience
and the safety of those working on and around the
machine. We’ve reduced operating costs with fuel
saving efciencies that reduce your cost per ton.
With both standard and high lift con gurations,
thismachine willpass match with eets of 775,
777and785trucks. Ifyour operations revolve around
the992asaloading tool, you’ll nd everything that’s
important to your business inthe 992K; safety,
productivity, cost control and comfortfor your people.

Quality
Second only to Safety
Caterpillar’s commitment to quality is profound. We design to a higher standard so that your business
can prosper.
• All of our parts are subject to quality and conformance checks. We collaborate with suppliers early
inthe design phase for their knowledge and manufacturing experience.
• New designs undergo Finite Element Analysis telling us where stresses congregate under loads
typicalof the machine’s application. New castings are virtually monitored to evaluate ll quality
andtemperature exchange.
• A shake table simulates thousands of hours of use in days – allowing engineers to validate durability.
Further analysis on airow, ergonomics, performance, and ISO standard compliance are performed
onprototype and eld follow machines.
• Further tests are performed by operators and technicians for comfort, ergonomics and serviceability
either in 3D virtual environments or on the iron.
• You should know that all new product introductions at Caterpillar are guided by your voice and input,
the voice of our dealer organization and their mechanics, and on our ability to physically manufacture
anew design. These are just some of the criteria that make Cat products leaders in the industry, and
help us ensure long life, reliable machines for your business.

Long Life, Reliable Components
We value your success and build our machines to support your business
Linkage and Frames
We combine 40+ years of design and eld experience – aswell
as new validation technologies – to ensure 992Kframes,
castings, welds and fabrications are the best in the industry.
Our unique box section rear and front frame designs combine
plates and castings to manage torsion loads and provide
longer lasting alignment for hitch and pin life. Sleeve bearing
pins in the linkage are more predictable in their wear and
limit daily greasing. For load and carry applications,
optional Ride Control further reduces shock loads to the
frame while giving the operator a much smoother ride.
Cat C32 Engine
The Cat C32 diesel engine with ACERT™ Technology is
common to other Cat products – like the 777F off-highway
truck – butit will not be identical to the C32 found in the 992K.
Inthe process of integrating a power train into a machine,
Cat product groups develop unique power curves and ratings
as well as fuel maps unique to that machine andits applications.
The C32 in the 992K has starters, oil coolers and turbochargers
chosen for its applications. It has mechanically-actuated,
electronically controlled (MEUI) fuelinjection that meters
out fuel in just the right quantity tomeet demand. The quality
of our Cat fuel injectors ensures ultra ne mists and higher
quality combustion from every liter of fuel burned. The C32
is built on a strong core that’s smelted at Caterpillar’s foundry.
The quality of the core is highly scrutinized before further
assembly. Even gaskets arecarefully designed to reduce leaks
while controlling vibrationand noise.
Cat Planetary Powershift Transmission
Nobody builds a better transmission than Caterpillar for
earthmoving applications. Everything from gear geometry,
heat treatment and metallurgy are Caterpillar design controlled,
including the electronics that allow it to integrate with the
C32 engine and Impeller Clutch Torque Converter of the 992K.
The Cat Planetary Powershift Transmission in the 992K offers
three forward and three reverse speeds. The planetary gear
group is common with the 993K and 994F large wheel loaders.

Operator Comfort
Leading the industry in design and ergonomics
The 992K offers a world-class cab, a well-built and designed machine and performance that compliments
the operator’s skill.
The 992K cab has room to think, is comfortable on long shifts and adjusts arm height, lumbar support,
seat position and mirror coverage.
A retractable seat belt is available for both the operator and trainer seat.
For added safety, a rear vision camera option is available, and Ride Control, that adds accumulators
tothe loader linkage, dampens loping on the haul road. Two doors offer access and ingress options,
andthe operator is protected from falling objects and rollovers with ROPS/FOPS structures.
Operators can set automatic bucket heights for easier truck loading or feeding a crusher. The implement
controls are nger tip controlled and low effort.
The cab is sound suppressed, has vibration dampening and air is ltered to keep dust out. An optional
precleaner can extend lter life in extreme applications.

Safety
Safety is always our rst priority
We are constantly improving our products in an effort to provide a safe work environment for the operator
and those who work on your job site. Here are just a few of the safety features found on the 992K.
• The 992K features wide, easy to climb stairs with hand holds at critical locations.
• Walkways offer non-skid surfaces and integrated lock out/tag out points are designed into the
service areas.
• Extensive glass in the cab and optional heated mirrors extend visibility. A rearview camera option
and incab display can be installed along with HID lights.
• A backup alarm is standard, and operators receive three levels of warning when the machine
requiresattention.
• An operator trainer seat allows your seasoned professionals to guide new operators. Safety belts are
available on both seats.
• Roll over and falling object protection (ROPS/FOPS) is integrated around the cab.

Buckets
Options to reduce your cost per ton
Selecting the right bucket will dictate the productivity of
your loader. The process of selection starts with knowing the
density of the material you load. From there, you can select
the size and appropriate protection strategies that will suit
the rated payload targets of your machine. With a large
selection of ground engaging tools, your Cat dealer can
helpyou build a bucket that best suits your application.
Custombuckets are an option, however many 992K
customers will choose one of the following:
Heavy Duty Rock Bucket
Applications: Face loading tightly compacted pit materials.
Moderate abrasion factors and high impact loads are
suitable for this bucket.
High Abrasion Rock Bucket
Applications: Face loading iron ore. High abrasion and
moderate impact loads are suitable for this bucket. A smooth
oor is also desirable.
